Well...when I first actually joined MustangWorks (had been lurking for a while), I was looking seriously into buying a silver 91 GT. Alas, my well made plans were laid to waste on my birthday when I went to purchase the car. It had been sold the day before.
Thus comes
"silver."
"pilate" actually pays small tribute to a little known Pearl Jam song and the story I was told behind it. Pilate, of course, refers to Pontius Pilate. Eddie's song says, "like Pilate, I have a dog." This is an obscure reference to lore that after Pilate witnissed the crucifiction of Jesus Christ and the accompanying events of that day, he took his dog out with him to a hill overlooking the city and sat contemplating on what he had done. As it is, we all face such situations of reflection, and thus, if you use your imagination like Mr. Vedder, like Pilate, we have a dog.
Thus comes
"pilate."
Plus it's a cooler way of spelling Pilot.
