I have the Alabama Edition...

It comes with a primer hood, camouflage-colored sideskirts, a toilet seat lid bolted on as the spoiler, and cinderblocks in the trunk to display it proudly in front of a trailer.

Lmfao!
Yeah, that sounds like Alabama alright.

I've never heard of a "Texas Edition" Mustang, just Pickups. What the hell? Let the dork do what he wants, and let some other dork pay too much.

I've seen this before. Dealerships just slap a badge or a GT500 spoiler and maybe some stripes on a car and then sell it as a "Special Edition" (complete with $3-5K "Special Edition" markup). Since this is going on Craigslist, maybe the seller is either truly convinced that his car is a Special Edition, or he realized at some point that his car is just a GT with an F150 badge on it.

Thats pretty funny. I did some reading. Perhaps the intent was to mislead people because of the stampede edition, only 500 made sold exclusively in texas and oklahoma dealers? That was a 6 cyl with race stripes basically...kinda crappy and came out in 06. That is what I gatheredfrom quick scanning.

I didn't notice anything wrong until someone else pointed it out and I read the add. So. great spot on a scam. Too bad the guy selling it didn't know before he/she bought it.
