Default Hello all

I am the new proud owner of a 2004 Mustang GT!!!!!!! I am 29 years old and live in Huntsville Alabama. This is my very first sports car. I have had it for less then 24 hrs and am lovin it. My dad had a 65 mustang growing up and when I told him I got the new one he was pretty jealous Anyway nice meet you all.

Mike

Welcome. How many miles have you put on the car already? The first time I bought a "NEW" car I drove it 200 miles the first night. I'd probably take a vacation if I got a new mustang.

I wish I could drive more then I am but I have only been able to put 60 miles on it so far. I am getting married next weekend plus I am active duty Air Force so I haven't had time to really enjoy it yet.

Congratulations!!!

I live next to an Air Force base. The F16s fly right over my house. They're loud but, man, they're cool. We're lucky to have a base, it's about the only good thing about this town. I wouldn't have many intelligent people to talk to if the AF didn't move people here.
