The Ford Mustang has been a symbol of grace and power for decades. It has held its place in the lexicon of muscle cars since they came into existence, and the modern version still holds true to its roots. The stylish powerhouse is still an adrenaline-seeker’s dream and an unforgettable driving experience, and you can learn more about it below thanks to Tri-County Ford.

True Horsepower

For the casual driver, the 2.3-liter EcoBoost GTDI I-4 engine and 10-speed SelectShift Automatic Transmission produce a generous 315 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 350 lb-ft of torque at 3,000 rpm. That’s more than enough to get you in trouble on your daily commute.

The 5.0-liter Ti-VCT Coyote V-8 Engine, however, is a handful in all the best ways. While street-legal, it would hold its own on the track. With an output of up to 500 horsepower at 7,250 rpm and 418 lb-ft of torque at 4,90 rpm, paired with a standard race-ready TREMEC 6-speed manual transmission, it’ll definitely get your heart pumping.

Precision Handling

With its sport-tuned suspension and selectable drive modes, the Mustang is equipped to be responsive, no matter what the road conditions are like. Electronic Stability Control helps keep your car under you where you want it, and Selectable-Effort Electric Power Assisted steering ensures that the flat-bottom steering wheel responds precisely to your adjustments.

Four-wheel power disk brakes with EPB and Electronic Brake Booster, along with a four-sensor, four-channel antilock braking system and a first-of-its-class drift brake help you time your takeoff, and allow you to drift when you’re on the track.

Augment Your Experience With Technology

The 12.4-inch LCD digital cluster and 13.2-inch touchscreen let you experience your drive on a new level. You can utilize full-color graphics and specialized apps to track and visualize your performance in interesting new ways. Track your g-force with an internal accelerometer. Clock lap times and use a countdown for accurate starts and to synchronize your launch control for maximum takeoff.

Themed Interior/Exterior Trim Packages

With a wealth of combinations to choose from, your Mustang can feel customized right out of the factory. From understated Black Onyx to contrasting Carmine Red or Dark Horse Blue accents, your interior is sure to reflect your signature style.

On the Exterior, there is a wide range of available colors, from muted tones to bright primary reds and yellows. You can accent it further with racing stripes on the top or sides, and the signature Mustang badges ensure your Pony will be recognizable anywhere you go.

Creature Comforts

Although the Mustang’s focus is always on performance, all the bases have been covered. Luxurious heated and cooled front seats keep you comfortable and secure when you’re driving. The FordPass app lets you access remote features like push-button start and remote adjustment of the interior climate control, and keeps you connected to your car when you want it.

If you’re looking for a car that brings both style and substance, the Mustang has a lot to offer. Come down to Tri-County Ford in Mabank today to take a test drive you’ll never forget.
