Hello from Ohio
Wanted to finally introduce myself after lurking on this site for awhile as I researched the purchase a new Mustang. On 10/25 I ordered a black 2013 GT/CS with an ETA of 12/22 (thanks to Deysha for being so kind to look up for me).
This will be my 3rd car, 2nd Mustang. I currently drive a (very slightly modified) race red 2003 3.8 5sp that I bought in November 2004 and have really enjoyed. My first car was a 1985 Cougar with an awesome sounding 302 once straight pipes went on. LOVED that car and will always miss it, and am really looking forward to listening to a V8 again.
Other cars I have owned (but primarily wife driven): 1994 Acura Integra, fun little car, and currently a 2004 Honda Accord V6, very nice car with embarrasingly better gas mileage and power than the 3.8 Mustang.
I am really looking forward to the new Mustang, a member on here (Nighthawk13) was very helpful with some early questions and sent me some awesome pictures of his car that I've been drooling over in anticipation of picking up the new GT.
This site has already been very helpful and I look forward to future discussions!

Welcome to forum Allen, my fellow Buckeye. Glad you joined.
That car you ordered sure is going to be a stunner.......no question about it.
Are you close to Steubenville, the far east side of the state ?
Stay in touch and congrats on your order.----Bill

Just be mindful my friend when it does end up snowing.......Bill

No worries, I grew up here and have driven RWD cars and trucks in the winters all my life (other than the 4 years in the Cleveland area which was more snow, though typically less drifting than around here). But thanks for the warning!
I'm hoping to sell my current Mustang and buy an older truck for the bad winter driving.
