With the new 305 horsepower V6 engine and top echelon fuel economy, a lot more buyers are looking to the Ford Mustang. Also, with Ford's strong reputation, and lack of government bailouts, consumers are feeling confident in Ford's future.

Mustang sales in May, totaled 10,225 pony cars, compared to the Chevy's tally of 8,931.

The other "big gun",the Dodge Challenger is holding a distant third to the Mustang and Camaro at only 3,828 units.

That's a 16% increase in sales, compared to May 2009 and almost double the total Mustangs sold in April.

And yet other parts of the Mustang stable still await, such as the new 425 horsepower 2011 Saleen S302, which will be available shortly.
