Well, Mustang owners only see the rear of Camaros, so what else do they have to do?

I have a Chevy WT truck. The WT stands for "work truck" and is a bare bones vehicle for work duty. I do not know why the Mustang owners are using it on the Camaro. But I do know that the standard V6 Camaro has more horsepower then their V8 GT's!

Just looked at a new Camaro SS here at work (Ford). As an owner of a 67 SS (since 1979 - longtime Camaro fan) - I would buy the Mustang over this (not because I work for Ford).

As soon as I saw the stacks of wheelweights stuck on the front calipers (I assume to resolve an NVH issue), had to laugh and think how this must reinforce the opinions of most folks who would not care if GM died. As an engineer, we would get laughed out of here (fired) for proposing such a solution!!

I agree 100%....I am so close at buying one (they are bulit just up the road from my office) and I see the trucks roll out every day....anywho, I will wait untill all the bugs are worked out or if and when they introduce a Z/28 ;D Now with the Govt. owning a 70% share of GM....I wouldn't be surprised if they shelf the Camaro (with all the "green" talk so alive w/ this present Government). They are definately sweet Cars....wont take much to get them down to high 11's or low 12's in the 1/4 Mile :D
