You've got a deal
*PMs dirty pictures of bill as payment*
Well then, you can stare back at the Prius owner when their throttle sticks and they run into the back of a pickup truck driven by a fella named "Jim-Bo".
I agree 100%.But i do feel with each passing year the general attitude is that i'm not "stuck driving an old car" anymore...but that i'm "driving a nice classic car". I can def feel it in the way people compliment it and ask me about it. You almost get the sense that they know my car is something i drive as a hobby.
I do run into some pretty crazy "mustang enthusiasts" though. People at gas stations who have stories of the fox they have at home making 800hp and stories like that. Its funny to me that the car draws enough attention to get to talk to people like that.
WHere I live, we get what I call "the passing thru-ers". These are the guys you don't find on boards like SN.
They buy a "new" Mustang for the image and trendiness, beat the living snot out of it for a few years, do a few "questionable mods" and then dump the undermaintained car off and trade it in for a BMW or Lexus and then proceed to talk crap about Mustangs from there out.
With the new 5.0 coming out...i'm sure we'll see a bunch of them
I agree 100%.
There are those who ask "why would you want to drive that old thing, the new mustangs are way better", but i seem to run into more and more guys who appreciate it and understand that its more than just an old car. Its one of my favorite things about driving my car actually.

ANY ONE have someone try to buy their car?????
I DID run around on open headers for 2 weeks once. That led to A LOT of stares on the road, questions in parking lots, etc, etc. That was a lot of fun. Just reminds me, every time I see someone looking, why Mustang owners get such a close relationship with their cars.
I had a guy follow me off the freeway go out of his way to catch me at the light to tell me he liked my cars. I don't necessarily like that. Makes me uncomfortable.
I'm that guy lol. I love Fox Mustangs and i love to see them stock or modified. Its interesting to what others have done. I always go out of my way when i see them. And i rarely see them in my neck of the woods. Maybe 10 each summer? Not that many.
