Heritage on wheels. That’s my take on the Ford Mustang. You cannot escape the evidential truth that Ford’s pony car has a great deal of history behind it, while it adroitly advances that legacy with each new model built. A Once-Threatened Species More than a half century has passed since the original Mustang took to the road, but not without a little drama through the intervening years. Indeed, the Mustang’s existence was threatened at least twice over that span, beginning with new federal…

Everyone is excited to see the wild ponies. Kids pointing, sister picture snapping, husbands talking and laughing, and I’m gripping the seat wondering if Assateague Island will be as enjoyable as our normal beach day. The bus approaches the drop-off point and the chatty bus driver warns us to be cautious of the wild ponies. He then proceeds to tell us about a person who thought they could ride the ponies. “That person did not make out very well.” remarked the driver with a chuckle in…

I believe that the american muscle cars are better then tuners/supercars/imports. Are muscle cars are louder, heavier and meaner than any other cars i know of. Super cars are built for speed and precision but muscle cars make them sound like lawn mowers. They are very aerodynamic and the muscle cars are lean heavy and built to take a hit. If you were to wreck a ferrari or lamborghini they would smash and cost you thousands maybe millions. Plus you can't really work on it yourself you have to…
