Today is my Stang's birthday!
(It's not her build date but it is the day I brought her home)
She's one year old today and I must say it has been a very happy year!
I'm a GM convert. Had my last one for 15 years and never owned anything but GM products.
I must say this is a GREAT car and I'm very happy I bought it.
I got her a C&L intake and SCT Xcal2 w/Bamachips tune last week and ordered her 3.73 gears and a Ford T-loc this week.
Looks like a happy birthday for us both!

Congratulations on you're one year anniversary of driving your 05 Mustang home for the first time.
Today is the one year anniversary of picking my car up as well...and almost to the minute.
One year and 7,928 miles ago at about this time I was sitting at the dealership writing them a check and signing all the paperwork before driving home in my new Mustang GT.

The only changes I made to my car was chrome wheels and having the top of the mirrors painted.
I have other ideas for the car, but those are on hold until I have the money to make some changes.

Work is 2.8 miles round trip, plus I have a sports trac that I drive sometimes. Taking a road trip this weekend so you can add about 1200 more miles to that.

I drive an average of 7500 miles a year. My commute is only 7 miles (about a 10 minute drive in the morning...takes a little longer in the afternoon since I sometimes take my time driving home).

Since I got the 05 I've been to a few car shows, club meet and a few cruises this summer so that's added a few more miles to the car.

I also got a nice surprise from my dealer today...congratulating me on the 1 year anniversary since driving the car home, and gave me a coupon for a free oil change...they had perfect timing as I had already planned on taking the car in for it's next service this Saturday.
