Shit. I was falling asleep when I saw a note on my phone reminding me I have an 8am meeting tomorrow with a PowerPoint that I never finished. Feels like college again. Found a good Jazz playlist on Spotify at least.

Really anything below .9 and it's worrysome. But that is way better then before. Do you get a lot of knock correction still?

So, I just had a Mustang rental car for about 72 hours. The visibility is actually very good. The hood is ridiculously long and flat compared to the FR-S. It's really weird not having it drop off in front of you. Kind of like my old Wrangler in that regard.

The backup camera/screen with Sync 3 is also good. Bluetooth connected ridiculously quickly. Android Auto startup speed was a little inconsistent but that might be a phone thing. The steering wheel controls are nice but the steering wheel itself is bad. As someone who appreciates the padded speaker surround on the 2014+ FR-S I think the hard plastic on the door of the Mustang would suck during extended spirited driving.

Air conditioned seats are the bomb. I think they're better in the Mustang than the Grand Cherokee but it was also 20+ degrees cooler than when I had the Grand Cherokee so that might not be a fair comparison.

Taking out the unfair advantage of the Hemi in the Challenger I think I'd take the Mustang as my rental muscle car champion, but it has been about a year since my last Camaro rental.

I'd love to have AC seats. Much rather that than heated seats.

For men, yes. For women, they love those heated seats.

Used to have both AC and heated seats in my '05 Lexus ES330. That car was so comfy.

I actually don't mind the heated seats much. Reminds me of when I get to sit in those heated massage chairs. Feels nice sometimes after a long day at work or whatever, unless it's too hot outside.

I'd love AC seats though

The only time I use my heated seats are when my back aches.
