Where is everyone?

It used to be daily posts were a lot higher around here. I know several people belong to other sites and maybe went to a 2010 or newer but what about the rest?

I'm still here. Just don't post too much because I've got my car "done" the way I want it. The only other things I want to do are performance mods, but money has been standing in the way of that lately and since it already performs really well, I guess I'm lacking motivation too.

I'm still here and still planning mods.

I've got brakes, wheels, hood, painted stripes, and so forth still remaining.

Some of it is also a function of where our cars are in their lifespan. A lot of folks have done their mods. But we're not yet where the fox bodies are - the stage where we are going to be asking each other, how do you fix this? I am having a hard time finding this or that, what are my options?

None of us are writing the "just bought an '05 that's been sitting in the garage for 9 years, what should I check before I start it up?" posts.

Yet.

We're in the sweet spot right now. We are out enjoying our Mustangs. The day will come when we'll be writing those other posts above, and you will see the activity climb again.

I totally agree. I'm at the stage where I'm enjoying my car and nothing is breaking yet. Although in a year I will be putting on an E-Force myself and I'm sure I will post about that.

I don't think I ever posted in the 05to09 section, missing my 05 about now though.

I've been done with my mods for going on two years. I still check the 05-09 section daily and if I think I can add something to the conversation, will post. The lower count is a combination of it being summer and folks getting the 2010's and 2011's. Life moves on but I"m staying with my 05 - at least until the next generation.
