I could not believe it when my dad pulled up out front in his new metallic grey and black stripped 2009 Saleen Mustang. Sure I had seen his 2007, 302 big blocks Mustang when he drove that home new but what blew me away that day was when dad got out of his new beast and through me the keys to his old one. My heart stopped, had I read this gesture correctly? Perhaps he was just toying with me; he had never let me drive his Mustang before. But he told me to jump in to my new car and he would drive my other heap down to the dealer to get what we could for it. It was such a thrill and rush to drive dad’s old car but the excitement grew as I realized this was now mine. A 2 year old Saleen Mustang all for me, it was lucky I didn’t crash it into a tree or something because I was so nervous and shaking with adrenaline.
Dad had given me the sterling silver Mustang that you can see advertised around the Detroit area and on the Mustang car commercials. I can tell you from experience that the commercials are not exaggeration the experience it is to drive a Mustang. I try not to spoil myself by driving it every day so the thrill will stay with me for a long time to come. Every now and again I thank dad for this exceptional gift and slyly ask him when he is going to get the next model. They still look incredible just like the original mustangs of the 70’s and the retro look just adds value to the charm and looks of the car. There are now supercharged model and a variety of dazzling colors to chose from, so if you are not as lucky as me and won’t be given a Mustang for some random reason then you should check out your local dealer who can inform you of all the latest deals in the yard.
