I hope I'm in the right place for advice. 1st post. Hi all!

Help me debunk all of the myths about Mustangs not being practical everyday drivers for fathers with young families. I love and respect my wife, so I have to approach her intelligently (well at least try until I succum to my basic instincts). She doesn't believe that there is enough room in the back for baby seats, or booster chairs. My kids are 2 and 5. She thinks that my insurance will double(my record is spotless). I drive a good quality Import that I have absolutely NO affection for.

A little about me. I haven't owned a Mustang since high school. Three of them 67, 68, 67 and learned to turn wrenches out of necessity. I've been dreaming of updating to a current model for years. I'm cheap(not that I can't afford it), and I have never forked out money on a new car ever. But for the right car, I'd do it. And I'm sure that the only way I'd leave a Mustang, would be for another Mustang.

I'm looking at the GT convertible. I'm only 34, and too young for 4-door soft suspension sedans. No matter what other car I look at, I keep coming back to the GT convertible. And I prefer the latest generation over the previous.

Thanks!
