Just joined the forum. Just purchased a 2011 V6 Premium with Pony and Comfort packages, Automatic with factory 3.31 gears and over the top stripe kit. I've never owned anything but Ford/Lincoln/Mercury products. Still own my first car a '69 Cougar Eliminator which I purchased in 1977. I won the NHRA Division 5 ET finals with the Cougar in 1990 along with a "Wally". Look forward to participating in the forums.





I know it's not a Mustang but thought you might want to see it anyway.

 

I was wondering if your name was in reference to the Cougar Eliminator. I saw one of those go on sale in the same color on Mecum rerun this afternoon. Beautiful car.

 

Welcome! That Cougar looks sweet!

 

Great minds watch TV at the same time. I saw that too....a Boss 302 no less. It went for under 30K, didn't it?

Thanks, I've owned several cars over the last 35+years but never have felt the same way about a car as I do the Eliminator. My dad bought it in 1970 and sold it to me in 1977 when I got old enough to drive. Cars like it were considered gas hogs during that time and were sold for very little. Gas was 89 cents a gallon when I started to drive it. People were outraged at the gas prices.

 

Congrats and welcome. Nice cars.
