More than a dozen vendors were here, showing off some new and cool products for your Mustangs, while DJâ€™s Smoke Shack was on site, serving up some of their great food and donating half of their sales right to the Four Diamonds fund. As usual, the parking lot was packed with tons of beautiful Mustangs, and many enjoyed the Kids Zone, horse rides, prize wheel, raffles and more!The Winners:As always, we have our popular vote car show throughout the day. With nearly 500 Mustangs in the show, there were lots of choices! After thousands of votes and lots of counting, the cars below were crowned the winners.

Next, we want to thank our vendors and employees for their help and support leading up to and during the event. There is so much work done behind the scenes to make Customer Appreciation Day go as smoothly as possible, and we could not do it without the support and generosity of our vendors, and the hard work of our employees.
