But I'm in the process of buying my Mustang? However, I don't want a kitty shot......decisions.. decisions...I guess it could be worse...at least he's not a black kitty!

Don't worry Gooch. I'm buying one in May. I think they only kill the deformed ones. They gotta keep that cafateria freezer stocked, right? How else are they going to feed the employees? Well, at least the ones that are not getting laid off!

OOPS! Which one are you buying? V6 or GT? What color? Details!!! Details!!! Because if we end up buying the same one, rumors may get started....you know?

I haven't decided yet. I am either getting a truck, or the GT. No V6 for this kid! I have always had a truck, but I am thinking of treating myself. I had a '67 fastback when I was a kid and always wanted another pony. If I wait until summer, I can get the Shelby GT500. 475 hp! But, that is also a bit more expensive. The GT350 is out now, but not quite as fast. I still have time to decide.

I have driven Fords all my life. I have NEVER had a problem. Change the oil, and take care of it. A friend of mine has a F-250 with over 150,000 miles. Original engine. It still drives like a new car. It just depends on how you treat the vehicle. If you don't, you will have problems. Just like ANY other vehicle out there.

Enjoy your Kia. It's a looker! :D

Well, Toyota was just admitted to race in NASCAR. This should be interesting.

I read about that! We will see how that Camry does against the big boys. It will be interesting to say the least!

I am looking forward to China's new plans for manufacturing passenger airliners.

Apparently they can make them "real cheap"

Good for you! So you can tell us why Ford has the best selling trucks and SUV's on the market, right? Not to mention the GT, one of the fastest cars in production. Or why GM pulled Camero, and Firebird. I have seen the new Camero concept though. Even with me not being a Camero fan, I gotta say, they got it right this time!

But don't you think that the new Camero looks way too much like the Mustang...but then again...I guess from the beginning they always have.

It's not just a thought. Chinese gov wants a big peace of the airline manufacture industry. USA has been oursourcing parts/manufacture plans long enough that guess what?...they figured out how to do it themselves.

Yea it does. I was telling my Dad the same thing. That is probably why I like the look of it.
