Have any of you checked the 350 forums?

Isn't that the truth for just about every car?

Whoa....lol

The only Z I'm not a fan of is the 280ZX and the Z31.

Sort of. There was never really any hate in the Mustang world with regard to new models. There was some tension when they dropped the old 5.0 pushrod for the 4.6L OHC, but that didn't last long before everyone got along again.

It just seems that our community is much more fragmented than say the Mustang, Corvette, or Camaro communities. We look at our cars as 350s, 370s, 300s, etc., instead of "Zs."

Which is fine... but we could do without the hate!

I don't know if you frequented some of the Mustang forums within the past year or so, but theres been some hating in regards to the new bodystyle Mustangs. Seems for the most part the 94-04 guys like the new style but all the people with 05-09 hate it. When I was looking back in September there was really some hating going on.
