50k miles – not this year
I have been following the discussion in the forums from new member gokstate74 who has 45k on the clock. I mentioned in that thread that I am close to passing 50k on mine. When I filled up on the day I put the car away for the winter I...
2010 Carlisle All-Ford Nationals Registration
Tom G. (noac) yesterday brought my attention to the fact that registration for Carlisle All-Ford Nationals for 2010 is open. I don’t know how long it has been open. I have tried to get to the registration form quite a few times yesterday and today and have experienced a...

iPod Integration for the 1993 Mustang Factory Stereo
My car has a factory stereo with CD player. The CD Player doesn’t work too well but it’s one of those options that make my car unique. After all, 1993 was the first year for a CD player in a Mustang. In thinking ahead to my 6 hour trip...

I have a Mustang calendar at work that I got as a gift. It’s one of those with a Mustang picture for each day. It must be tedious putting one of these together. And, the people who edit these things are probably not subject matter experts so I have...
