Car I have bought include , 1099 Ford Escort,2001 Escort ZX2 ,2006 Mustang GT . Note, I have never owned an import car or truck of any kind! Unless you count the ZX2 ,but it was made by Ford. The only car other than Ford I have had was a 1964 Buick ,what can I say, I was only 16 and that car didn't last long LOL.

The Mustang now has a supercharger on it,and makes over 450 RWHP and still gets around 25-26 MPG on the highway .This may turn out to be the best car I have ever owned. I have beat the crap out of it and it still keeps on going .post-35453-1230376879_thumb.jpg

1996 Mustang New - Fun but not convenient.

1997 Ranger 4X4 New - Regular cab 4X4. Just too tight.

2002 Merc.Mountaineer New - AWD and V8. Great hauler and people mover.

2005 Ford Focus New - Fun and cheap to drive. A 1 or 2 people max sort of car.

I've had numerous company cars of many makes. The only non Fords I've actually owned:

1958 Buick Monstro Used - Paid $12 for it, no reverse but smoooth.

1941 Dodge PW 4X4 Used - More of an implement than a pick-up. Driving it was a thrill unmatched in modern times.

I love your '34 3 window. I have wanted one since I saw The California Kid on TV back in the '70s. The '67 Fastback is very nice too.
