I'm mildly troubled by these young 50-somethings who consider themselves "old."

Right, we want to be like you guys when we grow up.

As the genesis of this awakening - the outpouring of a key demographic certainly seems to justify a dedicated thread.
Some youngsters sound like they want to join our demo before their qualified?
Unfortunately my branding skills are beyond lacking. The only names I could come up with suck.

I think "Kids Over <whatever age>" is perfect.

Well where I live Senior's discount starts at 55 so I think that's what some of us are going by. But admittedly compared to some of the member ages there very well could be a few of us in our 50's that are stil using breast milk on our Rice Krispies LOL.

AARP starts sending you mail at 50 years old. I consider you old if AARP wants you.

63 and this is my second Mustang. The first was a 1977 Mustang II Cobra, yup, one of those Charlie’s Angel cars.
Judging by the rate this thread is growing, it might be easier for the moderator to move the “under 50’s” to a side thread of there own.

Yep I’m 72 and have driven performance cars all my life. When I was a teenager we would build performance engines by blueprinting and by shaving heads from junk yard cars. Mostly hemi’s and big block fords. They we’re for straight line and oval track racing mostly. In the 2000’s the Germans got their act together and started producing performance cars. They are good cars but not muscle cars. I ordered a 2016 Mustang GT, manual shift with the PP option and love it. I get most of the “hold onto the seat of your pants” from days past. It’s got cloth seats that don’t get hot and nothing extra you don’t need. My only gripe is the shifter mount. It’s only half mounted to the trans in an effort to elevate vibration. It’s to slow and the vibration is part of the RAW experience you look for in a muscle car. I hope all you gear heads love your Mustangs and wring them out safely. I’ve been doing it for over 50 years hope you can to.

Nice 1st post, Mike D.


For what it's worth... I dropped a note to Admin asking them to review this thread and consider your request with a new topic area. This could be met with enthusiasm or disinterest. There's no tellin'. There is much they will have to consider before making such a move and work involved should they decide to cater to your requests. But the more requests you posts... well I can't hurt.
GL experienced ones and thanks for the camaraderie posted here. Now I'll be looking for more old guys to thumb-up when I'm out in my Stang

I'm 66. Love my EB with a Performance Tune. So much fun whenever I drive it.

I’m 54 and just bought my first Mustang GT. I had the Roush SC and FP Track performance suspension installed by the dealer. Love this car! I have always been a Mopar guy. I wanted a Hellcat but this Mustang is heads and shoulders better and a lot cheaper.
