Used Mustang

I know nothing
I've been thinking about buying a used Mustang. 2015 or newer with a V8 and automatic transmission. Sounds like the Getra manual transmissions have had some problems. From what I know, the 2015-2017 have the 6 speed automatic transmission and the 2018 and newer have the 10 speed. Wondering if anyone has any feedback on the 10 speed vs the 6 speed.
 
I've had 2 Getrag MT82 6 speeds with ZERO problems!!:beer:

A 2014 5.0 and now a 2019 5.0........45K miles on the 2014 and so far 23K miles on the 2019 so don't rule out the manuals unless you really want an automatic!!:confused:

BTW......LOTSA naysayers on car forums and especially concentrated on Mustang forums!!:rolleyes:

Good Luck in your search!!:beer:
 
There is a class action lawsuit against Ford on the Getrag 6 speed manual transmission, so that's why I want an automatic.

There is also a class action lawsuit against ford for one of the automatics they put on the market

The most problematic getrags were the 11-14's specifically on the 11-12 cars, my 16 hasn't had any issues. They're a little quirky but nothing that can't be fixed with some simplistic tweaks

Some people ***** about the clunkiness of the 10spd auto around town, as well as gear hunting.

I promise you as a S550 owner for almost 5 years now these cars aren't perfect.
 
The early ones had weak shift forks but the 2nd and 3rd generations are very reliable!!:beer:

Those who slam gears all the time complain as they break things.......Tremecs have their share too!!:argue::mad2:

Good Luck with your automatic but for me Mustangs just ain't Mustangs without Manual Transmissions!!:(
 
My getrag 2015 performance pack has had no issues and I beat the snot out of it. I think the problems come from noobs that abuse it and don't know how to drive stick.
