Got out this AM for the first time in 5 months.......Oh I love this car. Made one of our "Lurkers" day for him. Stopped into the local dealer on my "Test" run and ran into "Bill" . Bill who owns a 90 Fox got his first 05 test drive :worship: We have another convert! Me...... who NEVER lets people drive his cars ....... Have a nice Easter everyone!

Hopefully April will bring warmer temps, and more sunny days. Overcast and 40° is just depressing.

Hey--

Down here in the wonderful South----80 degrees on Tuesday and Wednesday with the rest of the week in the mid to upper 70's. It's gonna be great.

Hopefully I'll get my new girl tomorrow or Tuesday and can break her in. The grass is turning green, the azaleas are blooming, it's beautiful!! Broke out the shorts over the weekend!!!

I took the T-tops off of the 86 today...would have been nice to drive an 05 though...I swear I am going to be one of the unlucky ones to have an 05 on order the longest and end up with an 06 instead...

Thanks Donna....I think sometimes we "Car people" up here are like spectators to a good ball game. We're rooting for the team but we wish we were down there with the players Have a good spring down there.

A sure sign of Spring in the Northeast.....ships moving in the St. Lawrence Seaway. Now, to get my Mustang moving on the roads would be very cool

Hey Vanessa, I had an '86 too. It was one of my favorites for sure. I had a power moon roof though, no Ts. Don't worry, and have faith. I'm betting you'll get your car real soon. Are you selling the '86?

I get the water straight from the sink near the water heater and it makes those cold day washes bearable!

Thank God for spring!

Would you mind dragging your feet a little on passing the budget? Just until I get my car.........

Give me a heads up when you're coming by the Seaway and I'll give you a good tour of the locks and vessel traffic control!
