New Guy from IL

Just wanted to say hi been on here for few weeks in the background figured it was time to join. Recently sold a atv to help fund my Mustang purchase, this would be the first one I will ever own. My dealer let me test drive a used 10 with the 4.6 in it and I feel in love and I wanted it, but also wanted to test drive a 5.0. Mind you my 09 Focus is really the first car I have owned. More of a 4x4 kind of a person never have had a sports car let alone a car with a v8. Good thing i waited, test drove the 5.0 and loved the power now im just waiting and saving to see what the 2013 brings in a Grabber Blue C/S

Cool. Were you @ Rod Baker? That's where I got mine. The Cobra Jet is sweet! They might have finally sold it, it's been there a while. What are you looking to buy?

Yeap Rod Baker it is, and that sucks was excited to see that Cobra Jet but oh well. Had my mind set on a premium gt with some factory add ons but after i seen and test drove a black C/S my dealer had, me and my women fell in love with that. He found me a couple Grabber Blue ones cause that was the other color I like and just so happend Rod Baker had one in the C/S and that was the color for me, but really want to wait and see what the updates and that are going to be for 2013 plus gives me little more time to put some money away. Allready sold my Polaris RZR atv I had so just waiting and making my listof goodies I want

Nice! The closer we get to the end of the year you might find a really good deal on an 11 or 12. I wouldn't expect to much to change for the 13, next big overhaul will probably be the 50th anniversary. Either way you go will be a win. Good luck shopping!
