The wild thing is Mustang unique thing is its people, it’s a paradoxical oxymoron kind of thing we are a "group of individuals".

Thanks to all the Mustang Source Team and participants that makes this page happen. Happy New Year, God Bless!

You're right ... Mustang owners are unique from owners of any other car. There's a real sense of community that no other brand can claim. And I'm always reminded of the old question, "Had you rather date a girl who drives a Miata or a girl who drives a Mustang?" I think we all know the answer to that one.

The answer is I'd rather date a girl who lets me drive HER mustang. Happy New Year to all the mustang owners out there.

I think Jeep owners are the only bunch as committed to their rides and the lifestyle as Mustang owners. This year I intend to finally join the leagues of Mustang owners and to keep my membership in the world of Jeeps as well (unfortunately the Mustang can't haul a family of four to the beach or to the top of the local ski slopes in the snow!!!).

It was a while ago, before the site went down early last year, that there was a topic about favors mustang owners do for each other. so far, all I've been able to do is give others a chance to get in front of me in heavy traffic, and i've still never gotten a wave for it.

Anywhooo, I think brad posted on that topic about how he helped another mustang on the side of the road and the owner happened to also own a flower shop...and got free flowers for his anniversary? Brad, you remember what I'm talking about right?

I'd have to disagree. The are plenty of communities for every type of popular vehicle.

I'm fortunate enough to have both. The wife drives a Jeep Grand Cherokee and my winter rat is a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The GT is sleeping comfortably under cover in the garage.

My parents are Jeep people- they love them! Dad has a 85 CJ and Mom has a 2002 Liberty. My mom has been on a Jeep only kick for years- before it was Cherokees.
I am trying to turn my Dad back into a mustang man, but so far he prefers playing with mine.

Interesting trend eh folks...lots of Jeepers are also Stangers or soon to be Stangers. I'm on my Jeep #4 and will continue to keep a Jeep in the corral. I called my Bright Platinum Silver 97 Grand Ltd the "Silver Steed" even before I got on the Mustang kick...

For you Jeep guys and gals a Jeep saying adjusted for the Stang..."It's a Horse Thing you wouldn't understand..."

I think there are certain vehicles that attract the enthusiasts. I drove a Jeep Wrangler for 11 years and the community was huge! I currently drive a WRX (until I order my '05 GT) and the online (and offline) community is just as rabid as the mustang one.

i own a jeep and a mustang, and i must say the only other faction that compares is the corvettes, and we all know they are just midlife crisis friends, who are all having the same problems (trust me my dads a bowtie man)

The 2005 Mustang is my third Mustang since 1984, I think that says it all.

Another Jeep guy here. Although my TJ will be getting sold to make room for the new stang. When I can afford a place with a two car garage I'll be getting another jeep. Maybe an older CJ or Scrambler. Nothing is better than a jeep for camping trips and playing in the outdoors.
