Default Just bought the 2nd Stang...

Hey guys I just bought myself a 94 GT with a salvage title and 170k for 2 grand. I needed another DD after putting the procharger on the other car which now is going to be a nice day/weekend warrior. Anything I should look out for on these cars oh and BTW what do the 5.0's get as far as gas mileage. The car is bone stock except for shorty headers and offroad h.

My 92 GT Vert with AOD and stock gears (3.08s maybe??) gets around 25 mpg on the highway and about 20 in town.

Man, I wish I got that kind of mileage. I guess I drive like a maniac?[] I get about 14ish mostly highway, then again, the traffic flows at 80+ mph around here and I have a lead foot.

I did get around 20 when I first bought it though, and that was city driving.. so I guess they get good mileage if you drive it like a normal car. [:'(]
