"here comes that guy in that loud ass... What was it again? A Mustang?"

The fun thing is: yesterday I parked my car at a few places to take photo's. A couple of times some kids walked past with the parents, and the kids were like "look daddy, a Mustang!"... So they do know the car... Even though it is quite rare. That's the Mustang Legend for you.

I've had a cop pass me, then slow down so I would have to pass him, then pass me again, then slow down again so I had to pass him again. Then finally stopped me and first thing comes out of his mouth is he asks me about my car. Lol wtf

I noticed that EVERYONE pulled out in front of me when I was in my Escort or cut me off dangerously short...but that almost NEVER happened when I had the F150 4x4!

Most fun of all was a New Edge Roush Stage 3 convertible...girls everywhere wanted a ride! Even hanging out of BMW verts begging for one! Plus it garnered the most challenges to race...felt sorry (almost ) for one camaro None of this ever happened in my Escort either.???

another funny realization was all the way back when the car was new. There was a strip people would cruise Friday/saterday night here in town. When I took the mustang the only people that noticed were people either wanted to fight us or race us(or both but dudes) but when I took my pickup we could load that thing full of pussy and have just as much fun.

I've noticed this when I had my old exhaust on my car. I had a set of 40 series flows on it and people would Seriously think I'm doing 100 in the neighborhood. After I put borlas on it I get old folks waving at me. It's weird... more civilized with borlas is my only explanation even though It's just as loud if not louder. Lol

I just love the looks of confusion I get when I'm driving my VehiCROSS. It's extremely rare that anyone knows what the hell it is.

Meh, once I put the 315's on the back, nobody even wants to go anymore. And most of them could probably beat me lol. Especially now with my dying fuel pump lol!

The week before I sent my car in for paint, when it had all different body panels (9 colors in all), everyone wanted a race. Guess because it looked like a crappy car they thought they could take it, Now it must look like I have money or something lol

I'll get waves from other Mustang owners and stuff like that, but my car is fairly mild, and quiet at cruising speeds. Just lowered with '98 Cobra wheels. So it doesn't stand out as much. I've never been challeneged to a race though. Only one guy and his kid, but I think they were just trying to provoke me to accelerate to hear the exhaust.
