How do you know if a 00 - 04 has traction control?
Im looking at an 01 Mineral Gray Automatic GT. I will be driving the car in the winter here with snow tires. I would seriously like traction control. I called the dealer and he does not know how to tell and me being new to the stang have no clue either. How can you tell if it comes with this feature? Is there a code, or is it a factory standard feature? Thanx

you could look for the button... I guess... if you don't like fun... and want to take the easy way out.
or... you could go do a donut and if no idiot lights flash when the tires are spinning, you don't have it.

Thank you, also, does the 00 - 04 automatic have a limited slip differential? Is there a noticeable difference in performance between the 5spd and the automatic? Thanx
