Last week's rental was a black Ford Mustang. I've had this vehicle before and while really hot to drive was not very comfortable. I think they've adjusted the suspension because this time the ride was not nearly as rough. And that is saying something because Texas highways are not very smooth.
The Mustang is definitely one powerful vehicle. I was surprised how easy it was to squeal the tires - even backing up. This is a very low riding car but there is plenty of head room was in. It was kind of funny pulling up to the booth to exit the parking lot at the hotel. You have to hand your ticket to the attendant and give her your name and room number. I felt like I was sitting on the ground looking up to talk to her especially after the previous week's Jeep. She did comment that she really liked the car though.
A black car with black interior is not the smartest thing to have in hot Dallas. Thank goodness it was a bit overcast.
My only real complaint is the layout of the gauges. The fuel oil gauges are center with the speedometer to the right and the tachometer to left. The steering wheel hides the tach and speedometer so you have to look around to see how fast you are going. And you can go really fast really easily!
