I have a question for you guys/girls. am I the only one who is pissed off about the whole "5.0 MAGAZINE?"
What do you mean? Well, when was the last time you seen a copy on only 5.0's?? It pisses me off!!! I have nothing against 96 to 2005 MUSTANGS, but I didnt buy a magazine that says "4.6 or 96-2005 MUSTANG." NO, I bought one that says 5.0. I understand its cool to have other cars in the mag, new models etc... but come come now. Look at one of your mags at home and find the "token" 5.0 which isnt really that. Its a $30,000.00 blown nitrous 347 stroker..... 5.0.
Maybe its just me.

Ummm yah NO. Have you seen how magazines are out today. The reason thier is so many, is that 1 magazine cant please everyone, nor should it.

I think they do a good job at mixing it up. I think they figure anyone who buys a Mustang magazine will appreciate ALL years (and engines) and not just the title. There is actually a new magazine that just came out called Modified Mustangs. It has a nice mix of everything. Somehow I got a free 2 year subscription because it just showed up one day haha.

I do agree with you on that about the 5.0 mag not featuring allot of 5.0's like when mine came out the mag was plastard with 05 mustang stuff but there were a few foxes you cant get mad the thing you have to remeber is that the company prime media or who ever it is is making a mag. to make "money" and the 05 mustang is one of the hottest cars out right now and with ways to moddify them and customize them they have taken the fords by storm so they put allot of 05 stuff but there still is some foxes it just makes are cars more rare and valuable!

Well in a Magazines eyes, not many people are building Magazine quality Fox's these days. Big reason why they are not making the magazines. Magazines need to sell. To do this they need advertisers. Those companies that want to advertise in those magazines sell more parts then just Foxbody stuff. They need to stay in business too! If you want foxbody only stuff, Call 5.0 Resto and ask for a catalog, that way you can stare at fox stuff all day.

I have both and I love both. Besides, both magazines give me an idea as to what the potential is for ALL mustangs. I don't mind reading about the newer mustangs at all because honestly, when I pull up to one on a Sunday afternoon, I want to know what it is capable of.
Besides, focusing on the same material year after year does nothing for progressive knowledge regarding 5.0's. HA; on a funny side note, I just realized that most of the older 5.0's are now becoming collectors. Why? Simply because so many have been killed off in accidents etc... Anyway, I would say unsubscribe if you don't like what comes in the mail each month.
