I finally got so sick and tired of dumping money into the Mustang that I finally traded it in and put the money toward something a little more reliable and practical for me. I came to the realization that my car was nothing but a money pit.. and not like I was even upgrading anything, all the money I spent was on maintenance and fixing it. I needed something better for a New England DD so here's what replaced it...
2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo... 4.0 I6, selec-trac 4WD, lots of options, ridiculously comfortable seats, and only 40,000 miles. It gets about 23mpg on the highway which is pretty sweet. The dealership gave me $4500 for my car on trade in, in the middle of the winter... Blue book trade in value is only like $4200 (97 GT with 90k on the clock), so I made out like a bandit. End result was me getting an absolutely great deal on a very nice truck.
And something I thought was kind of funny (truck was bought from a Ford dealership)

Somewhere down the road I'll end up with another Mustang in the garage, but not as a DD. :SNSign:
