so now I have a new ride

[Bombero1956]

My wife recently purchased a 2012 Ford Focus to replace her 2006 Escape. While standing around waiting for her during her test drive I spotted this on the lot.



It was love at first sight and today this was me.

1. Nice ride!

2. I understand that look

that is the look of a man who is in love with his car. I had that look once and will have it again.

Congrats on the sweet ride.

3. Lovely - Now If I can find a Saab Viggen, I'll have that look.

4. I discovered something tonight after it got dark

When I unlock the doors with my keyless entry it projects an image of the pony onto the ground.

5. How very cool, my dear Bombero! That's a beautiful image...

I hope your beautiful new ride gives you many great years!

[Bombero1956]

6. Thank you Peggy

12. This is the first I've ever heard of that

DAMN, that is cool!

My son has a 2002 Mustang and I'm pretty sure it don't do that lol...

[nolabear]

16. Wooooooow. That's cool. And I have a weakness for a Mustang.

So I understand. Giddyap, Go!

7. Cool!

Nice ride! Good luck with it!

[HopeHoops]

8. Well, if you're going to get into trouble, that's the way to do it!!!

Enjoy it. I'd love to get a red one for my wife but just can't afford it right now.

9. That'll work.

Keep your foot out of it!

10. the one I traded in was in excellent condition

The salesman marveled at how new it looked. I take good care of my cars and don't beat them. Too many time I see people who buy cars like this who either trash them or make them into trailer queens. Cars like this are meant to be driven and enjoyed.

11. I still remember......

the first time I ever saw a Ford Mustang. It was 1964. I was 10 walking to school (we were dirt poor). I remember standing there, mouth open, watching as it drove past. Love at first site. They have always had a special place in my heart.

22. unfortunately for me due to having to drive dirt roads my vehicles get messed up bad

im pretty sure my toyota cruiser and the wifes rav4 wont have great sell on values when the time comes to trade them in, oh well price you pay for living in out of the way places i guess.

13. Sweet!

[amuse bouche]

14. Very nice

but I don't understand why people buy black cars

They absorb a ridiculous amount of heat and distracted drivers don't see them very well at night


Best of luck and Happy Trails

[sharp_stick]

15. That's nice but if it was me

I'd be stuck driving the damned Focus around because my wife would "borrow" the Mustang.

[Bombero1956]

19. my wife doesn't drive stick

a strategic move on my part.

[auntAgonist]

17. my first car was a '69 Mustang. LOVED it. Good luck with yours. It's beautiful. n/t

[hifiguy]

18. Sweet!!

[Evoman]

20. Ha. I drive a 92 Chrysler dynasty.

And you know what? If they sold the exact same car new, I would buy it. I have awful taste lol. Nice car, btw. Have fun man...life is too short for regrets.

21. My wife and took a vaction to Baltimore last week

I was just coming off the highway when it was hit with a rock. I turned to my wife and said " shit I'm not in town 30 secs and I'm already dealing with crime". The rock scratched the paint a bit but didn't dent the metal. Nothing like some anonymous violence to put me in a good frame of mind when just starting a vacation. Now I have to call a body guy to see if they can fix it.
