I've not been logged in often lately, but this time of year I love looking at this Mustang tv commerical so I thought I would remind you guys to watch this, since I'm an old (60+) paratrooper and mustang owner (66 convert)

All the way.

 

Love that. Hits close to home for me...........when I graduated from Parris Island in March of '84 my father bought me a brand-r-new, 1984 SVO Mustang........Black with grey leather.......what a car!!

 

Holy crap! I've never seen that comercial ever! I have something in common with both Falcopilot and Charlie1.

First I am a Paratrooper, I'm a First Sergeant in the famed 82nd Airborne Division. Been on active duty for 18 years. 11 of those here at FT Bragg, NC, home of the Airborne.

Second, on my way home from my first tour in Iraq is when I purchased my 67 Mustang. Like the father in the comercial, looking forward to purchasing it kept my mind off of the bad things while I was there. It also kept my mind clear the second time I was there as I was counting my pennies (and keeping my head down) and thinking about what kind of fixes / mods to do when I got back home. Owning a Mustang has been my dream since I was 14. To me, it's like owning a piece of America, driving it, is what it feels to be American.

Man, that was an awesome awesome comercial. Hit home in a good way, thank you for sharing that movie.

All the Way!

By far my favorite commercial. My family has served and is still serving to this day. Thanks for re-posting it and most importantly thank you all for your service to this wonderful country.

 

And then some. Great car you have there.
