If the Mustang is down, I spend time fixing it or twiddling my thumbs waiting 45 years for UPS/FEDEX/USPS to deliver the stupid parts I need.

i'm a chef and i love to eat - so when i have down time i cook. it's like taking a nice long walk for me. plus if i screw up i can eat my mistakes. if i'm not in the kitchen i'm playing perfect dark or on ebay looking for mustang parts on the cheap.

mine never has downtime , there is always something to polish, clean, disassemble, reassemble, and swear at and just when I think theres nothing else to do to it, I just stare at it some more until something pops into my empty head that I can do to it, sometimes I stare for hours though . But when those hours turn to days, I give up and fire up the dirt bike or quad, and then I start the whole disassemble, reassemble routine on them and eventually I end up back staring at the stang. Its a viscious cycle

My mustang never goes down

But, when gas gets really really high and my wallet is low I just do stupid things to pass time.

Play poo dollar, drink, ride the pocket bike around cuz it gets 80mpg
