Guess I missed whoever he thought was rude too....I know I must be the only one on here who hasn't made a loving crack on April's snakes....seems to me like they worked well actually....she liked them and wanted it to be different and succeeded brilliantly! Good job girl! Can't wait to see what you do with your car with the shop's help....as far as being different, I for one want mine to look different from the HUGE number of other redfire '05's....Mine is going to the paint shop on Monday for the splitter (front spolier) paintwork and install, side mirror paintwork, and center portion of the hood blackout....I think it's gonna look awesome and it'll be nice not to see everybody around here with my same car.....we're all different and our cars should represent us accordingly....happy modding everybody!!!!

As Arty on the Howard Stern show would say in a mocking tone - " WAH WAH WAH, there's another Mustang in my neighborhood WAH WAH WAH !!!"

Gawd that car was sweet. Its gonna be a loooooong process- hubby wants ghost stripes first. Im told the way they do it on yellow you can't tell unless light shines on it.

I don't know whats the deal, I haven't seen another 05 on the road since the one and only I saw on thanksgiving, a legend lime 6. I'm kinda wanting them to become more common so I don't feel so self conscious. Kinda an odd feeling having everyone at the light looking at you and pointing.

New Mustangs are all over south-eastern Kentucky as well. There are a lot of red and black GT's in particular.

I’m going to have a truly rare Mustang; all I have to do is not modify it.

I have been given my final warning by my wife. She caught me looking at prices for a body kit. She said it was fine with me getting rims and tires but is drawing the line at the body kit.

Now, how do I get her to accidentally bump her car into my front bumper so then I can blame her and have her pay for the new one

If your wife drives an automatic place one of those round, rubber-band type thingy's they put in their hair to make a pony-tail around the base of the shift stalk and park your car facing hers. She wont be able to see the indicator that says she is in reverse, and sooner or later out of habit she will just put it in drive, hit the gas and "pow"....right in the automotive kisser

Sounds convoluted, but it works every time. Well, at least it worked when my girlfriend drove her Grand Am into the front of my Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. No joke, true story. Of course, I wasn't actually trying to get her to hit my car at that point in time but......

I have only seen one on the road so far, and that was in BFE from where I live (Springtown for you DFW folks).

I should get a ride-a-long with Treadhead...he seems to see them everyday....
HaHa! You know it's funny you said that. I just saw 2 more yesterday! I have to use my fingers and toes now to count them all.
