Just got this a couple of weeks ago.  2015 Mustang GT Premium with 50th anniversary appearance package.  Black leather, 6 speed, quick car.  Will be getting a Ford Performance Pack 1 in the near future, since 435hp just isn't enough

Also here is a picture of my project truck I'm building. 1986 Ford F-150. Complete frame off. 460 replacing the tired 300 six. Suicide doors and a 1972 Torino GT hood scoop.

This is going to be some sweet ride when it's done!  Be sure to post more as you get further along with the project.  Love the suicide doors and that hood is awesome!  That 460 should make her run like a scared rabbit! Good work

Been driving this for two years now.  This has been one of the best vehicles I have ever had....Had a couple other Explorers and a couple of Fusions in the last 10 years.  Before it was GMC Envoys, a Tahoe and Chevys.

As I have been retired for 15 years now and 14 years ago bought a condo within walking distance of the grocery store, bank, gym and barber shop I only drive about 4,000 miles/year.  Any long range trips I rely on my kids or grandkids chauffeuring.  I get my Ford vehicles on a 2 year lease through one of my kids who is a manager at Ford.  I have to make a decision pretty soon on a new lease vehicle but I am strongly considering purchasing this one, I enjoy driving it so much........I feel a lot safer in it also, it is a good defense against "distracted" drivers.

2016 Honda Civic EX-T Coupe.  It's the first turbo Honda has produced (not including race cars).
1969 Chevrolet C-10 pickup, that I call The Green Barge.  I just got different wheels put on, resurrected what should have been junked.  I also say it's a Ratty Ranch truck, sold in Safford Arizona, still have the warrantee plate.  It's fun to tinker with, been making some parts from scrap metal, not going to polish the paint because that requires maintenance, but then keeping the patina from getting messed up is also a challenge.  I get more compliments with it, than the Honda.

Those alley shots remind me of when I lived on Wilmington and Livingston,  across from St Stephens. Where was the Mustang show held?

That was when I lived in South St. Louis, wish I still lived there as I have no garage now. 

 

The Mustang show was the 50th B-Day celebration in Charlotte, NC. I finished my restoration 2 days before I drove there.....LOL

After almost 20yrs, I'm back to owning almost a Chrysler product.

2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude plus.

Okay, I'm sure it's closer to a Fiat Product but I'm hoping for the best.

Turbo charged 2.0 271 hp

So far the only downside I've found is with the drivers window down, I can't rest my arm on top of the door.

B-pillar gets in the way of my arm. what the heck?

Good driving lil jeep with plenty of Peep with a 9 speed auto.

Sort've wish, (really do) I'd gotten the off road version Trailhawk but doesn't come with Turbo.   More Powwwweeeer. :D

Had it a week, have cleaned it four times already. Gotta love black!

SUV makes more sense for me right now, plus the Ram 1500 I had ordered is coming without the "standard" eTorque hybrid system, and that bugs me, so I picked up this.

 

2018 Tahoe LT with the Z71 Midnight package. All blacked out, with 18" Goodyear Duratracs and slightly improved ground clearance. An SUV I can actually take places, like unserviced logging roads on Vancoiuver Island, which I'll be doing in less than two months. Has rear dvd, 2nd row bucket seats, and WiFi so the kiddies will be happy on the roadtrips. Big stereo, sunroof, nav, Driver Alert package, and all the other bells and whsitles. Added 3M stoneguard to the front, ceramic paint coating, and tinted the front glass.
