WoW! A big ole truck! I am impressed. Seriously- But if I were your wife, you would be the one driving the truck and I would be smiling around town in the tangerine.

I don't haul all of us around very often- just on occasion. 99%of the time its me me and me only in it.
That 1% is when it gets tricky.

Well, I picked my car out, she picked hers out.

She decided on a Sunday she wanted to go look at them, and by Monday she was calling me to the dealership to sign papers (since she isn't employed, I still had to be involved a teeny bit).

She LIKES the truck.

It'd drive her crazy to drive mine.

Love to hear how you rigged up your dogs in there?

I have yet to take my dog for a ride in my car. It kind of seems like it would be uncomfortable for them in the back with the seats down since it has a trunk and not a hatch.

Right now I have ZERO dog hair in the car and I'm trying to keep it that way for as long as I can. We do have a vet appointment coming up though....eeeek!

She puts them in the front seat. So, when she has to stop suddenly they will bang their poor little heads on the windshield.

Said I would NEVER let dogs in Stang, thought I'd always be able to use another vehicle for vet trips. During Rita evac. I had 2 poms and a cat all in diff. carriers in the car. STILL got pet hair/fur everywhere. Lucky for me the Lab got to ride in the bed of my B-I-L's truck.

Yea... the backseat doesn't work for dogs. Especially with 4.10s and a few performance mods. I tried it...

HE was in the backseat with his head between the seats you goob! And he will not ride in there again- a 82 pound greyhound was not meant for mustang rides.


the aforementioned construction trucks that caused that little incident finally killed someone over here yesterday.

Mustve turned him into the stepford dog......


I have just realized that the I WANT AND WILL HAVE AND KEEP factor kinda screwed me.

I didn't count on the kids growing up...

So the only solution is to aquire a set of reliable transporting stuff wheels.

Its MY car. So I like to drive it.
I have a second one I wouldn't like to be caught dead in. You would be amazed at what Eleanor fits in her.

I once managed the four of us PLUS A BC Rich electric and coffin case. It wasn't easy but I did it.

Fun Fact: You can fit 15 2 Cubic foot bags of pine mulch in a mustang too.
I wouldn't dare put gardening supplies in my stang.You are very brave :scratch:
