Kinda older new guy

Picked up my 2014 GT Premium in June of 2014, love it! At 56 I'd decided it was time for me to fulfill my dreams and my lovely bride encouraged and agreed with me. I always drove beaters as a youngster and family cars and trucks while our family grew. I always lusted from a young age for a Mustang, after my Mom passed away last year I decided it was time to live life. You only live once.

Every single time I get in and drive her it's like the first time and brings a smile to my face. My bride drove her once and decided it was too powerful. LOL

MY 2012 Tacoma TRD Sport is usually my daily driver, another great vehicle, but I always welcome the chance to settle into the leather seats of my GT.

Welcome. You know you are in the right car when it brings a smile to your face every time and the wife won't drive it. Perfect match

Welcome aboard from another old guy.....

At 58, I wanted to have another blast before I get too old. Maybe another one if I'm lucky.

Wife sounds like a really cool person. Usually, wives and cars don't mix. As a sideline, wives and audio don't mix either.

Hello, from a new guy that is a little older as well! Getting behind the wheel of a Mustang, is the greatest, Isn't it? I can't wait to buy the "one" that I am looking for. Enjoy yours, as I know that you are.

We just celebrated my 75th by taking the Stang up to Vancouver Island for four days. You're only too old when you FEEL too old. As I was approaching my 75th I told people I felt like I was going on 57.
