I had owned a chocolate-brown '70 Truimph GT-6 that was chocolate-brown, with a mustard racing stripe. Hubby totalled his car, took over Triumph. It was too small for him. '74 Mustang was his peace offering.
After he wrecked the Mustang, I drove a stupid Mercury.
Eventually, I owned a brand new 280-Z, which I drove til the wheels fell off.
I now own a 5-speed Cougar, my second Cougar, both of which have been GREAT!
LOL - now my friends accuse me of entering a second childhood! I'll tell you this - I'll own a 5-speed til the day I die, or they quit making them!
Hopefully, I'll die first! LOL
