    New to Mustangs

    We bought a 08 Pony about 10 months ago, just couldn't pull the trigger on a GT at the time. Figured I'd buy some time with it until a GT was affordable. Couple months ago we both got raises, but didn't want the hassle of trading in. I promised myself I wasn't going to mod this car. So after some personal life turning events and a friend's purchase of a Bullitt got my gears spinning. Not sure where the adventure will take us, I'd like to keep the exterior as stock as possible and go for a real sleeper. I'm not much into bling. Anyhow so far it's just been adding a GT takeoff muffler, a Shaftmasters aluminum driveshaft and a Tunable Induction CAI.

    Never owned a Mustang before and in the last 10 months the compliments and interest of others about the car has been a fun experience. Just this past weekend we were down at Busch Gardens. I typically park far, far away so we left it in a spot all the way at the end. When we cam back out about 6:30 there were three other newer Mustangs surrounding us. Again it's just a Pony but moments like that make you proud to own a Mustang. It's cool to find a local forum and another great source of reading and eye candy.

    I've also got a 05 F150 that has lightened my wallet some, nothing crazy but I spent a good bit getting it where I like it. Then came the house. Modding houses is not a cheap adventure so I figured the car and truck would simpy remain as is for awhile. Well...you can only hold out so long.

    I'm down in Bethel Park. Haven't posted any pics since it looks like any other Vista Blue pony package you see.

    Only pics I have at the moment:
