Do 06 ponies have tpms? I hope not, Dad's honda pilot has it and it's got to be the stupidest faulty mechanism ever created by man.

TPMS is mandatory in all 2007 and later model year vehicles. They were optional before 2007. I doubt Ford put them in 05/06 models.

07 and up govt mandated system.
05-06 S197 Mustangs didnt have TPMS.
Some earlier years had it as a luxury item.

My 2008 has it. I hate it. I wish there was a way to shut it off.

WHy do you guys hate it so much? I love them, they let me know when I need to put air in my tire. THe only way you could hate them is if you changed your rims/tires and didn't put them back in. It cost me a whole $50 bucks to get them swapped to my new rims/tires.
