Are you making sure we know what it means, or are you really clueless to what it means?</P>


If you don't know what it means, and if you own a Mustang - I wish you luck in life, as you really need it. <IMG src=smileys/smiley3.gif border="0"></P>

...bling bling.....</P>


Grumpy.....just means someone had it plated in gold.</P>


Sometimes when there is an anniversary of some sort then the maker (Ford for example)will do something just a little diff. to the badge. As in the 25th yr. anniv. the horse in the circle coloured in red/wht/blu with a little line going through it reading "25th anniversary", but Ford has yet to make a gold one probably because it would signify a 50th anniversary. --- </P>

Gold used to be reserved for prestige cars - caddy, lincoln, etc.

but now every ghetto Terdcel has gold badges, chrome wheel arches, and 13" daytons.

But if you start with a turd, you end up with a dressed up turd. I don't get it.
