it's sad that 3.31 is an upgrade. What's the sticker price for the package?

I know I know, it is also part of how they got the EPA rating of 31mpg. I am just of the opinion that every Mustang should come with a 3.55 minimum rear diff.

What is the base model gear ratio, becuase I didn't know they were lower than 3.31s?

I thought the name Mayhem was not very good. I told them to go with
COLT 6, Have a Colt revolver for a side plate. Colt keeping with the Horse theme.
