NEW STANG IN Connecticut

I just picked up my new (slightly used - 7k miles) today. It is a BLAST to drive - until tomorrow when we get snow, sleet & freezing rain. It is Vista Blue, 5 spd manual, and it will be my daily driver except in severe snow & ice storms then I will need to take the wifes truck or one of my kids 4 wheel drives. I put 125 miles on it this afternoon and loved every minute of it. I saw way to many cops looking at me - gotta use cruise control more ofter cause 70 feels like 50mph. So tonight it sits in the garage next to my '65 Mustang convertible. That one is a 289, AT, Caspian Blue with a white top. Now that one NEVER sees bad weather only nice sunny days

Welcome to the site.
In New Hampshire, snow and ice means almost every day.
I just put mine in the garage and keep it warm.

You drive it now? With all the salt and slush on the roads, I am terrified to pull it out of the garage. I always told myself I would drive it all year long, but after seeing what the roads look like now.....I just ordered a car cover.

Welcome and congrats,

Looks like you have the best of both worlds. New age and a classic. Just keep an eye on all the aluminum with the salt.

Later,

Shaun

yes I do!!

yes i do drive it EVERY day here in New England. However I do wash it every 3-4 days to make sure it stays clean. We have gone to a salt & sand free zone. They are putting down a liquid chemical (probably liquid salt) which is green and does not leave all the white salt residue on your car.
