Well, today I actually did something with/to my Mustang.
I hooked it up to a battery tender.
I bought a dual-output unit about a week ago, but the 5-foot leads left a lot (about 25 feet, lol) to be desired.
So I ordered 2 25-foot extensions, moved the unit from next to the GF's Shelby where it was hooked up to her car, to the wall behind my car, and (fairly) cleanly ran the extensions forward to the Mustang battery locations, mine and the GF's.
I even went ahead and hooked up the little plug-in harnesses they provided, so that the harnesses are hooked up to the battery at all times, and I just plug in the extensions when I need to.

And the GF's battery also hooked up the same way:

And the unit on the back wall, next to the new poster of 50 Mustang years and above my brand-new tool box that I got as a X-Mas gift from the GF and finally put it together today

Well, maybe not today, but Sunday, I washed and waxed the car, cleaned the inside of the windows and filled the gas tank. Today, I ordered an OEM GT500 rear spoiler and the Roush lower fog lights. I get the spoiler tomorrow, but the fog lights won't be here until next week.
This should look interesting. The front end will be 100% Roush and the rear will be GT500. I hope it looks ok.

Checked mine out sitting in the garage as I took the trash out.
Can't wait to fire her up. I hope soon.

oops i posted this in the 'what did you do to your mustang' version of this thread and not the 'with', where it should be...
I drove mine to a couple dealerships looking for a car for mom still. Mine got many thumbs up and waves.
I'm totally enjoying this ridiculously warm weather. And totally expecting some payback somewhere along the line. I don't think i have ever driven so much with the top down in February before.

Went to my Calc I class.
Played hookie from work.
Added a half dozen wallpapers to the MyFord Touch system.
Ran to the store, taking the LONG way around (6 extra blocks), so I could take a joy ride in this nice weather.
Stopped at the liquor store, and got complements from the clerk on the car.
All in all, a good day.
