Believe me, it's not like it constantly enters your mind when you're driving a Mustang that it doesn't have IRS.

On a bumpy curve it'll bounce around some, and if you're going fast enough the rear tires will leave the ground momentarily and the rear will hang out a bit. But if you ask me, that's fun!
But, but...it's such an ancient suspension setup. How could Ford even consider putting a SRA in the modern Mustang? I mean, next thing you know, GM will be using leaf springs in the Corvette!
