pretty funny we are in the same boat and probably a mile away from each other. actually i think i saw your car parked in a driveway, and i also saw an old 5.0 parked on the street and i was led to believe that was your hizzy. you live by the cemetary near the 4 stop intersection? i live 2 minutes from there.

Yup, that's me. That 5.0's not mine however. My 5.0 is safety parked in a relatives garage.


Ha as close as we live to each other, i don't think i've seen your car yet. You have a Roush bumper on it right?? The silver GT that was behind me still had the stock bumper so it prob wasn't you.

Taurus are cheap, but i'm not big on their style. I want something at least somewhat eye appealing or sporty. That's why i'm reserving cars such as a civic, taurus, camry, corolla until the end after i exhaust the "cooler" choices.


Right now if i can find a decent Bonneville SSei i'd go for that, but i'd really like a wrangler first and foremost.

The only reason I have the taurus is because it's cheap. After I buy my house then I am going to get rid of it and buy my pickup. I want a 08+ F-350 Diesel

then someday i will get another mustang

I just picked up a 98 Ford Ranger 4X4 XLT with shell on it for $4000.00 from the state of Colorado. Love that CDOT Orange color. The car fax came back very clean on the vehicle. The average score on that year vehicle is 58-71 and this truck came in at 76. Not one issue with the truck and it has never been smoked in

yup, roush bumper and a cowl hood. hopefully, within 2 weeks, ill have the cobra spoiler installed. just about every other silver stang ive seen around here is stock, except for the spiffy altezza lights . hell, i even see a silver six banger in billerica with rectangle tips poking out of a homemade cutout of the six banger bumper in the center!!

Yeah every silver Mustang i've seen has been stock. I at least have the Mach 1 parts on the front end to look a little different.


There is a silver V6 wuth chrome 18" Cobra wheels and dual exhaust i see everywhere. Decent looking car for a v6
