welcome to the forum. the v6 should be ok to drive. only deal is the rear end will be fishy in the snow, but so are most other rear wheel drive vehicles.

Go to the store and pick you up this month 5.0 Mustangs, lots of tech articles, how tos, etc. Just a warning though, when you get that V-6, and start modding it, you will only want more. Why not go ahead and get a V-8? But hey, there are a lot of very fast V-6's out there, lots of potential, it all depends on what you want to spend. Also visit a local book store, you can find history of Mustangs, and general how to books on a variety of topics. Once you buy the car, get a repair manual for that specific model and some good tools, and you will be set. Feel free to ask questions and do search on topics you can think of for information, if you cant find it, someone will help point you in the right direction. Good luck and welcome to the board.
