That's because it is a yacht.

My Taurus handles pretty good for a full-size vehicle, but when I step into my Mustang, I feel like I got out of a 737 and into a fighter jet.

I'm 73 so my life in Fords would take several pages even if I could remember all of them. I've owned drivers and collectibles.


I haven't read all the responses but I'm guessing that there have been a few references to Crown Vics. They are practically indestructible.


My first was an 2008 cop car that I kept for 4 years and then replaced with a 2011 civilian model because I wanted Cruise Control. I got leather seats in the bargain. Has about 91,000 miles on it now.


My current collectible is a 1973 Mustang Convertible 351c with AC and PW.



Ford people, don't hate me for this, but my second love is Mopar and I have a 2003 Dakota and 1996 Viper.

94 Ranger, wasn't very nice but nothing broke on it even though I treated it badly.
2005 Explorer v8 - Pretty good car. Nothing serious ever went wrong with it. I still have it and have since supercharged it.
2004 Mach1 Mustang - Could accelerate in a straight line decently, but wasn't all that fun to drive apart from that.
2017 Lincoln Continental - I love this thing. It's a whole different ballgame from any previous car I've owned.

No hate at all. There are some decent Mopar products that are good rides. I keep debating whether I should update my 06 to a newer Super Duty. Then I see the new generation of Ram pickups. They are sharp. I wouldn't mind a Super Duty with a 6.2. I can't bring my self to add a car payment and get rid of a paid off truck that is pretty nice, paid for, and for the amount of miles I drive it, not needed.
