You Might Own a Mustang If....

Way back in the day there were a couple sets of "You Might Own a "insert vehicle name" if..." collections on the internet. One of the funniest was for the original Hummer (H1). I figured we could get one started on here and see how it goes. I will get it started and as people keep adding more and more it could turn into quite the collection.

1.)You might own a Mustang if your car insurance is almost as high as your first used car's monthly payment.

2.)You might own a Mustang if you wave/nod at every Mustang you see on the road.

3.)You might own a Mustang if it makes your day to come back to your car and see a Mustang parked next to it.

4.)You might own a Mustang if people have no clue what your car is, even if you have a windshield banner clearly stating what it is.

5.)You might own a Mustang if every idiot ricer that pulls up next to your car wants to race you.

6.)You might own a Mustang if other car enthusiasts automatically assume their car has more HP than yours, and make a point of talking crap about it.

7.)You might own a Mustang if people stop and stare at your car while you're at the gas pump.

8.)You might own a Mustang if you wash your car more times in a week than the days you actually drive it.

9.)You might own a Mustang if you find yourself questioning paying the electric bill so you can get another mod for your car.

10.)You might own a Mustang if you divorce your wife because she says "Its either me or the car".

I know there are a lot more that people can come up with. Lets hear em!

You might own a mustang if you've had people beg to ride in your car.

If when you see another mustang, you turn off the radio, crack the window and listen to it go by....

With me its other way around - I had so many people assume that my Mustang has so much power ... When I tell them its "only" 190 hp, they're like "That's it?"

Yes!

You know you drive a Mustang when:

...at the gas pump, guys, of all ages, walk up and tell you a story of a mustang they've owned or a friend's they knew of.

...random girls actually look at you!

...when your stock exhaust still rumbles the parking garage.

...when you fit in with tuners, muscles, sports, and supers!

....if you realize that random guys are taking pictures of your car when you are coming out of a store and their wife or significant other is making a face while shaking their head walking in

....if people slow down on the Autobahn just to wave at you and then speed off.

....if other drivers try and catch you in traffic

....if before you close the garage door, front door, go inside any building you look back just to get a glimpse

....if you spend almost as much time rubbing your car down as your significant other

Any links to share for past threads? Would be an interesting read I think.

If you consider the speed limit more of a suggestion than a law.

If you get pulled over just so the cop can ask you about your car.

If you are surprised on a regular basis when you look at the speedometer to find your going 20+ MPH over the speed limit because it doesn't feel like you're going that fast.

If you consider the time you work on your car just as important if not more than the time you drive it.

If you will call off work to install modifications on your car.

If you park at the very back of the parking lot to keep your car safe from other drivers.

If the sound of your engine puts a smile on your face.

If you prefer the sound of your exhaust over the radio.

If Prius Drivers give you dirty looks when you drive by.

If you spend money on a tune for your car to make it sound like it has a loping camshaft.

When the fun and excitement you get driving it every time puts a huge smile on your face.

...if someone says "awesome!" about something and you can't help but say "What about her/my car?"

/Ok, admittedly, this is fairly singular to me, but there it is.

You might own a Mustang if you find time for family after car wash, cruises, car shows and TMS.

something close to your last one.

Your wife is jealous that you spend more time on the car than you do on her. I have tried the flip side of that and now she would rather have me spend more time with the car lol
