RE: whats with all the haters lately
It dosn't matter what you drive there is always going to be ******** running their mouths. Of courseit's easier to pick on a V6 sports car but that just makes it that much more fun when you mod up and can tell them to put money where their mouth is. I understand why people don't think much of the V6 but it'snot like it'sa hopeless engine. Try driving a 4cyl S-10 like I did for years that can only be built up to about 200hp before things start breaking.. now thats a hopeless cause. Oddly enough thoughthere wasn't muchrivalry between the 4cyl and V6 S-10 guys. Everyone was supportive of each other which is somthing I miss after switching to a Stang. Mustang guys are too competitive within their own groups. It should be us against them not against each other but I guess thats a whole different arguement..

Yeah, I drove an Auto V6 which is just as bad... and i mean i had reason... its not like i avoided the manuals.. and now my dad says i can get any car i want with the 5k AS LONG AS.... it isnt all rusty and primered and ****ty looking, AND it has an automatic transmission... kuz he thinks ill go out and burn the clutch trying to race etc.. when ive been driving a manual 4cyl 94 Ranger (pos btw...) but anyway.. even tho im getting a car with more punch and cylinders i get the occasional ribbing for having an Auto, yet people dont kno why i have it or that the car i wanted came with one.. and when i do say that they tell me to just do an tranny swap..and im like wow.. your an idiot..

RE: whats with all the haters lately
most people tell me i have a nice car, but there is always the guy who is like why get a mustang if you aren't getting a GT. that is their opinion, i'm happy with my car, and wouldn't think of trading/selling it now that i have it paid off and i know it's maintenance history. i'll probably keep it for another 3-4 years until i'm out of grad school and then get a mustang GT because at that point i will be financially stable enough to afford one.
