Default Good mustang magazines?

Well since i'm new to the mustang family i was curious as to what is a good helpful magazine to order? I'm looking for good articles about modding and stuff a average guy can do to his car to make it look sick.

I went to the store and bought some but can't get a good judgment on one issue of each mag.

thanks

I subscribe to Modified Mustangs and Mustang Monthly. They seem to have the most consistently helpful articles. Everything else I only buy if I see something I like in the issue.

I sub to Modified Mustangs, 5.0 Mustang, and MM&FF. I will NOT be renewing my subscription to MM&FF. They are so fuggin advertising vendor bias that it is not even funny.

yea really, if their magazine is 200 pages long, then 180 of those pages will be ads


But my utmost favorite is probably 5.0 Mustang

That is true, but wasn't really what I was talking about ( but it is a good point! ) What I was referring to was their product reviews. As an example, there are countless threads on aftermarket TBs and how little gains they are actually producing both NA and SC. This has been demonstrated time and time again by reputable tuners on dynos. Yet MM&FF did a review of the BBK throttle body ( which STILL has not been released ) and actually printed that it had higher gains than even the manufacturer claims! They have done the same thing with many other products. If the vendor advertises in their magazine, they get a good review even if independent testing shows otherwise.

I sub to MM&FF and Modified Mustangs. MM&FF is the best mag in my opinion. Give you more news about the 05 and 06 mustangs. I had Mustang Monthly but didn't newered because that mag is only for 60's mustang mostly.
