OK, so Karpro and Kevinb120 last posted around mid-July, which is a long silence for both of them.

But where in the universe is Grantsdale? I haven't seen a post from him since late March 2005. His posts were some of the more entertaining, not to mention informative, on TMS.

Can't PM him, return message says his in box is full.

Did I miss a memo? Anybody heard from him lately?

How about Orthoguy (best stripes ever), Harleybill (one of the 1st few Torch Reds), etc... Heck even Altoid left!

Yep---Orthoguy disappeared in early April. Altoid has been bascially gone since June, except for one short post 2 days ago.

Where are all the old regular characters? Like BEACHBOY (aka Bobby). Out driving their Stangs, I guess.

It wasn't too long ago I think BEACHBOY was over at 2005stang.com. I think after people get thier cars they spend less time here since half the posts are ordering questions or banana posts. I've only had my car a few months and still enjoy seeing the pics. It's funny, even now that I own this car, I still will walk across a parking lot to check out another Mustang.

I agree, John. I too enjoy seeing the pictures, and still find interesting posts and info here.

But, what happened to Grantsdale??

My guess is Grantsdale is enjoying his new pony while the weather permits it.

I heard from ORTHOGUY about a month ago.
I know he's been busy having fun with his car. He also has his own business, so he may be busy with that as well. We live near each other and we've been talking about hooking up and going on a pony ride. Hasn't happened yet.

Hey Guys, it is the nice weather. I haven't been on much lately but it is because ya gotta enjoy the weather here in Ohio when you can. Plus I just picked up a 68 vert to go with the 05 so I have spent a little time on the "classics" forum trying to find out as much as I can about the early models. Also, anybody looking for a nice harley v-rod, let me know.

Not a fan club, just miss the bantering and input from some colorful characters.

Hope they are having fun with their Stangs, but come back "home" soon.

Understandable. I was up in Akron/Canton the 2nd week of July... it was nice. I even thought about moving back until I remembered what November - April is like. Enjoy that weather while it lasts... pretty soon you'll be having to wash the '05 daily to keep the salt off

I'm right there with ya John - all my friends think I am nuts because I get all excited when I see another one on the road. And I will definitely go walk over to check one out in a parking lot.....

The magic of this car is still going strong with me.

maybe they'll come back when there is something new happening. I mean, I love this site, but since the 05's are everywhere now and there isn't much new stuff to learn about them and there isn't any new model coming out very soon, not much is happening here.

I do like looking at pictures of peoples cars but if I had my own I'd be out driving too.

Now that a lot of people have their own cars they don't post as often because, after all, their dreams have come true. They no longer need to post questions like "what do the rims look like", "does anyone have a picture of sonic blue?", etc etc. My wife bugs me because I still spend a lot of time on this site.

I'm betting we'll see a lot more of them once the weather gets bad. Down here, the summer isn't as big of a deal as it is up north because we can enjoy our cars and work on them year round.
