Talking Went from imports to domestics. New Mustang owner here

Hey all,

So all my life I've had imports, started with a civic, made it a turbo civic, blew it up and moved on. Man it was fun being young and dumb Moved on to a 3000gt VR4, took it to a shop for some tranny work, and somehow "all the sudden" it had many more issues. Imagine that.... Went and got a non running twin turbo 300zx, brought it to life and had fun. Had to move back to CA and couldn't bring it with me =( So now here I am in CA with no car and I see all these mustangs driving by and realized something, I like the sound and look of them. So I bought me a 97 GT. Nice blue color and 136xxx miles. No leaks and runs great all stock. Gotta say there is something to be said for the instant power from a big ol V8. So since I'm new to this mustang world, anyone got any pointers?

Thx for reading my long post, I ramble I know
