whoops I was wrong... my dad drove it a few times... he test drove it when I bought it cuz I was 120 miles away

once he had to move it when I was asleep... ended up taking it to the store and dropping my siblings off at the bus and they tracked mud all over my 2 week old floor mats at the time...

and..... that was the last time I left the keys out....

There's only a select few I allow to drive my car. Other than myself, my friend who got me into mustangs and has a 5.0 of his own, and a couple other buddies of mine that actually know how to drive or own or related to someone with a car with retarded amouts of power. I know mines not the fastest 5.0 but there are some people out there that can barely drive FWD so I'm not about to let them dump the clutch and swing out the ***-end of my car.

i let my best friend drive it one time on an open road, because i had sold him my old 1990 crx si and he thought that was fast so i told him to try and floor it on my 5.0 and he wouldnt he was scared, he said you can feel it pull and get the feeling its going to start peeling out out of control, and i will also let my wife but she always complains that you can smell the exhaust fumes and that it is to loud and hates my clutch.

No one but me. Its not that I don't want any one to drive, everyone looks at the shifter and is like "f that' its a Hurst Quarter Stick so u have to use two hands to get it in to park and to put it into reverse, unless you have ET fingers. You also have to know when to squeeze the handle. to put it in first and third

I let pretty much anyone drive it. I taught my girlfriend ti drive stick on it. Its only a car if someone else wants to enjoy it I am happy to let them. My buddy bought a brand new truck and you cant eat drink or smoke in it, And whats the fun in that.

I let my girlfriend drive it a few times because I think it's hot to see her rip around in it. In spring time I doubt she'll want to drive it though. I guess I'm the only one who won't let his father drive his car? I've seen how my father used to drive his mustangs and I don't want my baby to got through that abuse. As for selling the car, the only way that thing is going for sale is if I get caught trying to sell one of my kidneys.

So far to date, my dad, my uncle, myself and my wife (that one was required by law I think..). My brother and his wife asked if they could and I said "No, my insurance doesn't cover anyone 25 and under." May have to get a new excuse next year...
