no, the lister was probably an idiot and read the white tenths number along with the rest. it should be 52,968 and 6 tenths.

idk, the guy says: "All information is correct in this ad, there are no typos and the mileage is correct!!" and "This car has been taken care of dispite its miles." and "This car has been my work car." so who knows, maybe thats the real miles...

i believe it could be true cause people get 200k out of 5.0s beating the hell out of them, if this guy just drove it and maintained it right i think he could put that many miles on it. besides thats only 31000 miles a year wich is only about double the average driver. my wife has an o6 nissan titan and it already has 22000 miles on it and i feel like she hardly ever drives it except to work and back. never under estimate those 5.0s lmao

I dunno...at first I was thnking maybe he was reading the tenths, but look at this comment he posted in there:

"All information is correct in this ad, there are no typos and the mileage is correct!!"

So now I'm wondering, LoL. Maybe someone went from 2.73 to 4.10s and didnt fix the gear or something. Or maybe he is just an idiot and he really is reading the tenths, LoL. But it doesnt seem likely that it has only 52k miles on it if that were the case.

Since the link doesn't work...

my mustang's got over 285k on it and has seen hundreds of 11 second passes and nights out on the town. She's a strong old bitch, but I love her.
