When you have websites dedicated to your car.

When you pass a place and think- MAN that would be a good place to snap a picture of the car.

When you leave you house on Saturday just to have your car detailed. And watch 2 movies that you have no interest in just to burn 4 hours while they do your car.

If you are driving home from the middle of the woods, and someone tailgates you 60 miles home until you turn off to go into your development just to look at the car(wouldn't pass). That very much creeped me out because I was phoneless and my leetle friend was home.

If your salesman calls you every other week to make sure you are still pleased with it.

If you wait 20 minutes for a parking spot when you go out to eat, just so you can park up front.
:nono: Never drive to your house if someone is following you....drive them straight to the police station!

You know you're gonna be a good Stang owner when you have the VOPC phone number on speed dial. (shhhh, we don't talk about that number here!)

If I would have read more carefully, "until you turn off to go into your development" would have been a good clue!

the same goes for a classic mustang owner


when all your friends tell you" I saw a mustang today,....."

when a collegue overhears a conversation in a plane about mustang, interferes and says that she knows somebody who has a mustang, a site....And that person calls you weeks later to ask you four your help....

when all your computerpasswords are mustangrelated.

when you can't hang all you mustangposters.

you shop for a house but actually you want a garage for your car

You finish up at the bank drive-through, and the teller very professionally says "Thanks for your business -- love your car," then the cars in the other five drive-through lanes wait 30 seconds with nothing happening while *all* the tellers watch you drive away.

When you trade your perfectly great 4x4 in the winter months to drive a beater so your new 05 Gt doesnt get driven in the nasty weather.

When your daily routine includes looking for new mods for the new car you that has yet to lose the new car smell.

When people stop asking your Son if the car he is driving is his Dad's and instead ask you, if the car you are driving is your Son's!


Maybe this should be under...."You know you're getting old when"

Mike
I love this one.
Ride On

when your parents offered to buy the car for you just so you would shut up.


to bad that hasn't happened to me yet
Try this. Works much better.
Mow the grass,trim the hedge, plant flowers. Keep your room clean.do your own laundry. paint the house, keep all the cars washed and waxed,pick up the trash and put the can out on time, tell your MOM she looks great every day and kiss her cheek before leaving the house, tell DAD you are proud of him once a week and help him with his chores or carry his golf bag and most of all keep your GPA up in the 3s After doing this for a year and saving money from the part time job for parts you are now ready to ask for some help to purchase an 05 PONY !!! ROLL ON!!!

You know you are an '05 Mustang owner when you traded a $42K Sports Sedan on a Mustang and your family is looking at you like you are crazy - but you have the Mustang blood in your veins and just can't get that driving experience out of any other car!!! That Mustang GRIN is the BEST!!

The fun thing about being an older Mustang owner is that you have owned at least 5 previous Mustangs and can appreciate how much better the chassis on the '05 is AND you can afford to purchase all the mods you want

Is that why they lock up spray paint in L.A.? Never knew it was a Mustang thing!

...it's close to 30 degrees below zero, and you don't care, because it's a Mustang, and it's meant to be driven!

...you're wondering why a vehicle seems to be following for several miles passing up every opportunity to go in the next lane, until you need to exit, and notice that it was a similar colored 99-04 Mustang behind you.

...you make sure to always wipe the snow off the trunk emblem.
