Wondering how many of you went from a Mustang to a Marauder and I'm sure some of you if not many still have a pony or two god knows I've had plenty nine last count and of course 02 Lightning one FAST TRUCK believe me you some how can't get enough SUPERCHARGER until you add a dyno tuned chip and eat 90% all day long......sorry to say sold my Lightning. Baby due in August soon and when the price comes down a little on a used Marauder.The IS300 Lexus will due for now nice car but I'm a American car kinda guy. ps wife misses her 01 BULLITT Mustang short girl and pregnant don't work in the stang but adjustable pedals in the Marauder ...........works for me and her and the baby.

I wanted another Mustang but the fact that my shortest kid is 5' and growing theres no way I would EVER have had quite ride with the family.

Funney thing is this car runs the 1/4 in the same ET as my 85 Mustang LX 5.0 when it was stock. 15.36!

And everybody fits too.

The MM is my wife's daily driver. My daily driver is a Roush Mustang convetible which my wife won't drive because she doesn't like 5 speeds.

Both cars are a lot of fun to drive. Nice sunny days the top goes down on the Mustang. Can't take Mustang for more than 200 miles at a time. Seats don't support my back well and it begins to ache. Have driven the MM 700 miles in 1 day. Very comfortable and a joy on the open road.

I traded in my Bullitt#539 2 weeks go on this MM. I love the features, smooth ride and the engine.
But I do miss the Bullitt but I lost confidence in the Bullitt's drive train,engine rattle noises, trans was worked on 3 times and needed it again the sad thing is the Bullitt only had 10,000 miles on it. Its to bad Ford seemed to slap those things together.
I love the MM and its great for the family.
Its like having your cake and eating it too.

I traded in my 2000 black Mustang for the Marauder. The Mustang was an automatic since 100% of my daily commute is in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

Now . . . I'm really dying to get a used MANUAL transmission GT (also black). Hopefully, when the new restyled '05 Mustangs come out next fall, used late model ('04 and earlier) GTs will drop in price.

I went from a '99 Cobra vert to an '03 CV LXSport only because the MM was priced to high at the onset. When they put the incentives on the MM and I got a good price with trade, I opted for the MM. BTW, the Mustang had 105K miles on it when traded.
I was thinking of going with a new Mustang when they came out with the new body style, but my 59 years old body was getting cranky from the Mustang ride and getting in and out. My butt was getting bigger than the seat, so to speak....Love the MM though. She's got 24K on her already....

My true blue mustang gt ('01) was one hell of a car, and it sounded amazing until I took a scenic tour of the barrier on I-66 using the grill of my car.

I didn't come directly from a Mustang but I've had a 00 GT 5-speed and an 01' GT Auto-Trans. I can't take the Mustang seats anymore.

The Marauder is my wife's car, which I enjoy driving when I get the chance. It's a great ride and good for hauling the family around. I do have to get 4.10s and the chip though. Still driving my 97 Cobra daily and if I were looking for a new car (which isn't an option :( ), ideally, I'd like a new Cobra convertible though the Marauder would get serious consideration.

I had a 90 Mustang that I drove daily and raced on the weekend. Before my daughter was born, I went to a GrandMarquis, then some other vehicles, 97 CrownVic and now the Marauder.
I missed my Mustang and got the Marauder because it is a gentlemen's Mustang.... :-)

My Job requires that I have a 4 door and now I have both 4 doors and performance.....
