What is your first memory with a Mustang?

Well, my first Memory of a Mustang was when I was 10 years old. My family wanted to by a new car, and they went and looked at the Ford Dealership that used to be in Springdale PA.

I remember my dad sitting in a Yellow FoxBody, that was in 1987, but it was a 88 Model. I remember touching the chrome 5.0 emblem and asking what it meant. I never got told by the sales man, and not till a few years later did I find out.

Oh, my mom and dad didnt get the Mustang, instead they got a 88 Mercury Cougar Blue Max special edition (V6).

The second and best memory of the Mustang was when I was going to buy my first car. For some reason I wanted a Big Hoompty mobile (50's-70's Four door something) and my parents were like "If your going to get a classic car, why not get something nice. Like a Mustang or Cougar?"

Man, I remember telling my mom "Because everyone has one.". After arguing, I finally gave in and went to go see a Red 64 1/2 Coupe 6cyl that was in the paper. Just to make them happy and to shut them up.

I remember turning onto that road, and seeing Jolene (Cars Name) sitting infront of that house. The sun shinned down right on her, and it was love at first sight. I've loved Mustangs since, and have only owned Mustangs. I could kick myself for wanting some Pimpin 70's Buick or Cadalliac. What the hell was I thinking.
