GM is dealing with it. new Camaro is going to be around 3400-3500 pounds, and the new mustang is getting heavier.

The equipment on the base Mustang is comparable to the equipment on a base Camaro.

Same site seems they are doing a lot of flip flopping and false reporting/ not knowing

Notice they say they are "Facts" then come your article now it's " it will he heavier"

Wouldn't take them as creditable to say the least .....
