Just wanted to say hey to all. The wife and I just picked up our new stang last week. First Ford every in my stable so bear with me as I learn. Chevy just has nothing in the "mid-life crisis" line anymore and the new stang styling is simply awesome. I think styling wise ford hit a home run this time. I am sure we will have many questions in the coming months and hope everyone is as helpful as the posts I have been reading. Seems like a great bunch. I will include a link to the first pics of our new stang below.

I think pic "mustang 6.jpg" is the best. WARNING, pics are not dial-up friendly as I forgot to cut the sizes down. May do that in the next few days.

Nice ride! Any stripes planned? Welcome to the ford family, Minus the Plan

Not sure on the stripes yet. Love the way they look, wife may not. Its her daily driver so we have to discuss the mods

I think tinted windows will be the first small thing.

Nah, thats not a real mid life crisis, your just enjoying beautifully crafted Ford. If somebody calls it a mid life, just tell them you just wanted a finely crafted refined sports car.


A true mid life crisis calls for a GT.

Congrats on a great lookin' Stang! Good Luck with Her and enjoy the ride.

I know how you are feeling, because I just picked mine up last Saturday and I've been smiling ever since.

Here's some nanners for you- from one new owner to another!

I'm in the same boat that you are in.............Our '05 is the wife's daily driver, and she has final say on mods. I am thinking about putting a chin spoiler on it and seeing how long it takes her to notice.
