I have heard it said that when a woman gets "Baby Fever" she starts seeing babies everywhere. Not that they weren't there before, but now she notices them that much more.

Lately it has become that way for me with Mustangs. I'm so excited about getting my 05 that everyday, everywhere I go, there are Mustangs EVERYWHERE! All year models, different colors, etc. It's kinda driving me crazy.... It's not like I never noticed them before, after all I have been driving a Mustang since April 2000 and been a fan since way before then. It's just now, really, they're everywhere!

Is this happening to anyone else?

mmm...on occasion i'll have a dream about driving around in the car. and i do notice the mustangs a lot as well. i like to think, "i'll be able to take that guy. and i'll be able to take that guy." that sort of thing.

I can't speak about the baby thing, but I do know that you are not alone in seeing Mustangs everywhere. My entire family has become that way. Car trips are pretty fun when we spot them. I am so bad that I try to get next to the Mustangs, especially the V8's - then I roll down my windows, and turn down my stereo to just hear the nice growl of their engines. This is a sickness I tell you ! :crazy:

As I see them everywhere as well, I try to pick out the differences in them all...visualizing what would look good on an 05. Hood scoop, wheels, etc. Then I realize that I should have mine in about 4-6 weeks. Can't wait! I don't know about Babies though!

That you never know,just like a guy i knew, he was backing up his Hemi '66 Bevedere when a lady coming from nowhere rammed into the car at around 40k, you can just imagine the guy, crying on the ground.....I knew him and he never was the same guy after....I lost track of him a few years back....

We've played the Mustang Spotting Game for years. It helps on long trips. Regular Mustangs are worth 1 point, Yellow ones are 3, Yellow verts are 5. Anything older than a '79 gets 7 points. (Classics are cool, and very few IIs are still on the road.) Original Mach 1s, Bosses, 66 verts, etc., we all lose count and drool. Create your own version for your family. And yes, I see Mustangs everywhere even more now, taunting me 'cause I don't have one. A disease called "stangaphilia".

LOL.
I saw one a couple of weeks ago just west of Detroit. I darn near went off the road at 80 mph. Peed my pants. Had a heart attack. Lost my breath. And couldn't thinks straight for 3 hours.
