I am starting to look at the possibility of getting a '13 or '14 now.
It seems with the '14 out now, there are going to be some good deals on the '13 models.

I don't have the new 5.0 but from what I've read, I think the power gains to the 13-14 5.0 is improved tuning from Ford.

If you're comfortable with mods, then a Brenspeed or Bama (BRENSPEED FTW) tune should wake the car right up regardless of year.

I know in a few years I'll upgrade to a 5.0 GT and I have all sorts of dirty things I want to do it. The platform seems to be begging for more power.
