V6 mustang yes or no?
First i would like to say hello to everyone as I am new here and this is my first post. Now to the point. I need a new car, I have a V8 mountaineer and its killing me with these gas prices. I want a car that gets decent gas mileage (average over 20mpg city/highway) and hasdecent performance. I have always loved mustangs so i figured i would get a V6 to save on gas because I'm only 17 and work part time. Would a used V6 be the solution to my problem?

I've got a 3.8, and the mileage, though better than your mountaineer, still isn't amazing. From what I've seen from the V8 guys, they get the same mpg as me with my 6. Look at it this way, you are comparing a relatively big 6 to a somewhat small 8. The 8 will have better performance, and the mpg will probably be very simliar.
Look at insurance, too. If you are only 17, a V8 will probably run you pretty high on insurance.

depends on what you look at.... me having a vert... going to a GT coupe would be cheaper[&:][8D]
i get roughly 20 even though i havent figured it out with the tune up/exhaust/tune its probably not to much better

OK maybe the V6 mustangs isn't what I thought it would be, I know the GT will be way to much for insurance and I don't want to get some damn little 4 banger car.

You can geta Sixerbut eventually you will start getting mods, all kinds...body to power adders. So not just thegas but you will be paying for a lot of things. And once you startmoding your car it will be hard to stop!

I looked up online that the V6 mustang is rated at like 17mpg city and 26mpg highway. Is anyone getting these numbers because that is plenty good enough for me compared to what I am getting now (10mpg all the time). I'm not looking for great gas mileage just decent and some ok performance to match. I'm not looking to get a 10 second car out of it.
