My First Ford Ever!

After 32 years of Chevy's, Nissan's and Pontiac's I bought my first Ford and absolutely love it.

2012 all stock except for front and rear sway bar and muffler delete. Thinking about adding some bullets or something though.

Also looking for a short throw shifter and will be upgrading the sound system but I think that's. Oh, and a Tune for sure.

Good for you Mandi. However, I've owned mostly Chevy's for years and years and was big on the FORD jokes for a while so it's somewhat of a change of pace for me.

Hi Charlie

congrats on the new car, I can imagine you must love it! I also have a manual '12 GT and it's my first american car and also my first V8 powered car.
the cool thing for me about this car is that now after quite exactly 4 years of owning it...I'm still absolutely in love with it. I still catch myself all the time looking back at it whenever I park it.

also I wanted to say I am sorry about the terrible floods that happened in your area and I hope everything will recover as soon as possible.
I'm actually planning to do my first ever trip to texas within this month and Houston is also on my list.

My Mustang was our first domestic car in over 40 years, but I was a Ford guy as a teenager.My first car was an ugly '49 soybean green Ford four door sedan with a flat head V8 and manual trans, but it would kick butt on the Chevys, until 1955.

My first car was a hand-me-down '64 Fairlane 4 door..six-banger, manual steering, manual brakes. Boring as the day is long, and I loved the hell out of it. You always have a special place in your heart for your first love, whether it be a car or a girl...even if both are ugly.
