The wife wanted a yellow 2016 with a V6 and stick shift. Had to order it, because there was only one available in the entire district, and it had absolutely no options on it, not even a spare tire. I'm just south of Dallas.

Congrats. Not many women drive stick shift.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations to your wife on owning a beautiful Stang! Hopefully you guys will enjoy it as most of us here do.

Funny thing. We've been married 43 years and have had a lot of cars. We got to thinking about our all-time favorite cars, the ones we'd like to have back, and almost all of them were sticks. A 1978 Ford Fiesta. A 1982 Pontiac Phoenix. A 1984 Pontiac Firebird (one of the rare four-cylinders, with a 5-speed). She decided she wanted a yellow Mustang with a stick shift. Now we just have to remember to put the clutch all the way to the floor (a no-no in a truck) and not to double clutch (or shift without the clutch).

That's cool that your Wife got the stang. What do you drive for fun? How bout you stick it to her and grab a GT.

Is this "sticking it" to her?

I'm a new '16 stick owner, though I bought the ecoboost. LOVE the ride and the entire driving experience, your wife will definitely enjoy hers! I went to Katy, TX for the stick, there were none in my area, plus they beat the list price by $3k.

What's your pictured ride? Is that a '43 or older?

1926 Ford Tudor Sedan. One of Henry Ford's "word jokes." He called the two-door sedan the "Tudor," and the four-door sedan the "Fordor." If they have a Ford owner loyalty incentive on the Mustang, I should get it, right?

Congrats. Looking forward to the pics.
