Default My Michigan Mustang

I traded in my 04 F-150 FX4 for an 06 Pony on Friday. It was sunny and nearly 45 degrees. When i woke up Saturday and pulled my new toy out of the garage to shoot some photo's. here is what it looked like. I love this car. I had a 65, 85 and 95. This baby is awesome even with a V-6.

I too traded my '04 F-150 Super Crew FX4 on an '06 GT!

Better gas mileage, top $$ trade, Xplan pricing, and 0% financing!

I loved my truck...wish I could have both, but the 'Stang is waaaay more fun!

I would have liked to kept my truck also but it was getting 13 miles to the gallon andI haven't had a car in 10 years. I was ready to get back in a Mustang. My wife has an Explorer so it doubles as a pick-up in most cases.

Yellow Tang - I thought you were a nice guy until the " Go Bucks " comment. GO BLUE !

Congrats on your toy!
I too am impressed with the V6. I had an '82 GT and this car believe it or not has more hp than it had.

I too just traded in my truck ( 04 ranger 4X4 ) for an 06 V6 w/ pony package last week. LOVE the car, I've never had a car before all trucks for me but I'm definitly loving the change. I'll post up some pics once it stays sunny here in Indiana long enough for my wash job to last more than a few hrs.

GO IRISH

I'm likewise impressed with the V6. I tried the GT on the freeway and got in my V6 and opened up the throttle on the freeway. 60mph+ in the GT does not impress me at all but the V6 does impress me at higher speeds since the performance was unexpected. What is most fun is the speeds below 60. The only other thing that impresses me on the GT is the rear bumper with the dual exhaust, heh I can get that all set up too. I think this is why when the last GT followed me off the freeway he didn't go passing me, I was wondering about that for a long while.. maybe he couldn't catch up to my car even though yes of course he is governed much higher. That or it was a faux GT.
