Mustangless

Haven't been on here much lately, but I sold my 95 Cobra at the end of the summer.
Right now I have left the ford family and I'm driving a 2003 Silverado SS. I
ts not bad for a truck, I really enjoy the AWD. Anyways, here are the last pics before it sold.

And this is the current ride... only have iphone pictures at the moment

Your SS looks nearly identical to my mom's except her's has chrome wheels. They're fun trucks but her paint is in absolutely horrible shape. Clear peeling everywhere, already turning white on the hood, and her's is a 05.

Did she buy it like that? Or did she just not take care of it...

Sweet truck man...too bad to see the stang go.

It was not like that when she bought it. The flaking clear coat has me baffled, there are big spots all over the side of it that are coming off. I'm pretty sure the hood's clear coat is failing due to where she parks it every day at her business, never in a lick of shade on a hot parking lot. She takes decent care of it, better than she usually treats her cars because it's special to her, but the paint is just turning to SH*T.

Edit: Just to be clear, the flaking clear and where it's failing in the hood are in too different places. It's not like the clear is flaking off where it's turning white.

I don't have that problem, however the paint on the truck scratches ridiculously easy, maybe Im just used to the white on the cobra that barely shows scratches. This is an 03 and Ive had no problems with the clear.

I'm itching to get another SN worse than I ever expected, but its going to have to wait until I graduate and start working. Luckily I'm finally done in April. I just miss having a car, and a manual trans.

I would have never sold that mustang, it looked mint. I honestly hate that bodystyle of chev half ton, the interiors look like the same thing from the 80s and the front end looks pissed off >.<

The mustang had it's minor problems, just like any sn but I guess I sortof got bored with it. As far as the truck the pissed off look is one of the things I like about it... And the interior is definitely an upgrade from the cobras in my opinion. I do want to get another 5.0 as soon as funds allow.
