I have the V6 as well and have 3,800 miles in the first two months. I drive 300 miles a week in my commute and have logged way more weekend miles than usual just riding around and enjoying my new Mustang. Welcome to the club!

I've had mine since late January with just over 4000 miles on it now. My wife has driven it twice.... I think she's sorta scared of the thing! Then again, she drives a Vibe (which is actually a nice little, roomy car).

My wife is scared to drive mine only because she is worried that something will happen to it when she is driving it and will have to listen to me. Hell I can't even stand how she opens the door them damn nails.

Only 500 miles in 6 weeks???? Have you been on vacation for a month?? ahaha...

I have 2900 miles on mine in 6 weeks.
Yeah but you got what, maybe 100 miles worth of burnout action just in that one parking lot. I've seen those videos, you not fooling anyone.

I let my wife drive mine every once in a while. It's hard to say no when she did give it to me for my birthday. I think she likes the look and the way it drives compared to her S80 Volvo. I was waxing it on Saturday when she walked up and said, "What would you say if I said I wanted to start driving the Mustang?" I am sure she thought my reply would be, "Sure honey, you take the Mustang and I will drive the Volvo." I thought for about 2 seconds and said, "Sure honey, that will be fine. We can sell the Volvo and I will buy a new GT." She has not brought it up since.

For every 100 miles on the rear tires he has 60 miles on the fronts.

So, what's your point?

No point, just simple observation
