You're still wet behind the ears. [:)] I'm 60. Act my age? Screw that! I'm having the most fun I've had in a long time.

Well they all love it too and are just jealous of your willingness to let go and be who you are. Those old people just want you to be like them and suffer as they do. They can't stand the fact that you are having fun while driving and they are screwed and stuck driving a boring box full of kids and pets instead of blasting along with the wind in their hair. I bet you like and even enjoy sex more often than they do too! Screw them! They made a choice and you made yours, enjoy your pony and enjoy life! Cheers!

"wet behind the ears........" Nice! I agree......I try to tell my sophisticated cohorts to loosen up, let their hair down.......Life is too short to go around conforming to everyone's ideas of proper behavior and presentation. I love my mustang and I like to have fun when I am in it..............I have always stuck out as different-----why change now??? [sm=devilangel.gif]

I'm 49 and I'm all about driving the speed limit and all. The first mod on our GT was a radar detector. I turned the corner the other day and got on it a little and shut down at 25 mph because that was the speed limit. A cop was there with someone else pulled over and he shook his finger at me. I had my window down and just said............."WHAT???"

I'm 56 and have always had these types of cars in my blood. I started with my first new car a 69 Chevelle SS 396-375hp car. Now I have my 05 Mustang GT and feel 16 again everytime I get behind the wheel. I too get the smart remarks from a co-worker that doesn' t have a pot to piss in. To me it all comes down to jealousy but who cares because I'm the one having the FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SaddleUp -> RE: Older GT Owners.......Should I act* my age?* (6/4/2007 5:26:43 PM)
This is what the Mustang GT symbolizes to me.....when the world gets busy and crazy.....I can let go and have some fun..........and turn some heads while I am doing it! I am the only one that hasn't submitted themselves to the "Yukon, Tahoe, Expedition Club" at my job. Sure, I have a 4x4 (Nissan X-Terra) to get me around in the snow storms.....but summertime is for fun! Not to be all housed up...............Something about the Mustang just says "I am here to have fun"! Not all my co-workers are completely dry........but afraid to step out of the box? ABSOLUTELY!!!!! I even had one of the docs challenge me to a race in his Porsche 911.......I told him.....I might not win......but I will sure as hell look better in mine than you in yours ! Have fun and go chirp some gears for the girls!!!! Shella ~ (be proud of who you are............) [:)]

You are acting your age. Old enough to know better and still too young to care [:D] <----- almost 32.

I am 36 and I am still having fun with my 94GT, enjoy it while you can and screw the mini van. Fast cars all the way![sm=badbadbad.gif]

Vulcan -> RE: Older GT Owners.......Should I act* my age?* (6/4/2007 5:31:42 PM)
I'm 43 so... forget about it! As long as your having fun, that's all that really matters.

gtrichyo6 -> RE: Older GT Owners.......Should I act* my age?* (6/4/2007 5:34:12 PM)

53 orbits around the sun (I'm 53) and I'm having a blast. Between Steeda and B ama, I've got the car and performance I want. When I come to the office and go sideways into the parking lot, the folks in the office just shake their heads.....of course then again, I sign their paychecks!

spuddogg -> RE: Older GT Owners.......Should I act* my age?* (6/4/2007 5:38:49 PM)
You guys are gonna love this - I'm out working this morning and I pull into a parking lot at a bank. As I'm pulling in I notice a windveil blue GT sitting in a spot (my favorite color). Then I see a little old lady, mebbe mid-70s, or older, walking that slow old people walk across the lot (that same walk I find myself doing more and more these days). I do that quick trajectory calculation and I'm thinking, 'No way!' Sure enough, she walks on up to the GT and hops in. So I watch for a bit to see her pull out, thinking to myself, 'If that thing's a 5speed I think I'm gonna burst a blood vessel!'. Well, it wasn't a 5speed, but it was one of the coolest sights I've seen in awhile, particularly when I saw her in the driver's seat with it all the way foward, up almost all the way to dash as she pulled out. Kinda wish I'd talked to her; if I wasn't in my other vehicle I probably wouldn't have thought twice about pulling in next to her and asking if I could get a picture. And yeah, I got gray hair (what's left of it) as well.[;)]

angcobra -> RE: Older GT Owners.......Should I act* my age?* (6/4/2007 5:40:11 PM)
if you even considered the mini van, then that is most likely what you need. For me at 47, a car seat for my grandbaby fits real nice in the backseat of my 03 Cobra Vert.
