I hate to see someone so enthusiastic about the mustang not have one. Keep your chin up......we'll be seeing you in one soon.
Thanks man! I really hope so. Seeing all these mods that you guys do also makes me want to learn so much more about cars and knowing how to do all of this myself. Are there any good careers and such that can come from knowing mechanics I want to do something I love but also be able to live off of it to you know?

I always told myself, if I ever buy a new Mustang its stick or I won't buy it, especially since my last car was a stick, 6 spd C5 Vette. I was on the dealer lot in Nov '06, and there were 2 leftovers, both auto, a red and a silver car. I got such a deal on it, I said screw it, even though its auto,its now or never because they weren't budging at all on the new '07s, they were out of my budget. So, to make a long story short, I got the silver car, auto equipped. It would be cool to have a stick, but getting more into drag racing, I'm glad I have the automatic now! Its not that bad, and my wife can only drive auot, in case she needs to use it. (Its a third, spare car).

She'll get a kick out of that one.
It's an honest mistake though.

Anyway I will keep in touch
J, I took the pic out in downtown howell. I was parked right out from of Mr.B's so I could stare at my car while I ate haha. The food there is amazing though, and its pretty cool to see everybody drive by four times to get a better look at your car lol. Im with you on the weather though, I took a corner a little to fast one night when it was raining and ended up nearly doing a 180. That wasnt a fun night, made me wish I had bought the TCS package from ford.
