What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[MAGS1]

Y'all have all the fun up north! We southerners just get the wind, rain, and sleet usually.

While I grew up with snow (in East TN), and I do miss it from time to time, here in SE TX NOBODY knows how to drive in the stuff, and our roads aren't set up for frozen water of any sort.

I try my best to just stay home and stay warm when solid water is falling...

On topic, I walked past my Mustang a few times today with jerry cans full of gas and while trying out our generator - just in case it's needed in a blackout.

Don’t worry, a lot of people up here don’t know how to drive in the frozen water either

Hey Everyone! This is Junior from N4SM. I recently installed this ABF Fabrication roll bar in my car. The reason I went with them is you are still able to retain the rear seats. I couldn't give up the red rear seats so I went with this company.

It uses the rear seat belt mounting points, no drilling is required. You do have to cut a hole and cut the corner of the plastic panels for the bar go through. Install wasn't too much of a pain, it was fairly straight forward. The hardest part was getting the rear side panels back in.

Overall I am happy the way it came out and love the way it looks. I plan to white stripes on the bar to match the outside of the car. If anyone has a set of Showstopper red recaro seats let me know, I think that would complete my interior haha. Thanks everyone.​

Yeah those rear seats are definitely retained...

Had some initial *ahem* quality issues taken care of at a dealership about 30 miles away, had them do first oil change as well.

They did a great job and surprisingly didn't fight me on anything. Car was purchased brand new, now has 3400 miles on it. Paint was flaking away from under the spoiler, and there were these ugly foam blocks sticking out from under the tailights, and foam sticking out from under the top of the decklid. My first American car and the build quality has definitely not disappointed

Guess they just pump these cars out and hope the customer doesn't notice the issues, and if they do pay the dealers to fix em.

What did I do to my car today? Left it in the garage LOL. We got about 5” of heavy wet snow overnight and have another 6”+ coming starting this afternoon with blizzard conditions starting tonight. I know all you southerners are jealous

Have fun with that Mark. After 40 years in Chicago I don’t miss it one bit. Don’t get me wrong, I hate California and we will get out but at least I don’t have to deal with that. My sister is still in Chicago.

Fun is one word for it LOL. Spent my whole life here and you never really get used to it or enjoy it (at least not as an adult)

Looks good.

Hmmm....So maybe those seat belt brackets on the roll cage can double as passenger seat air bag mounts?

It may sound crazy, but if you come from a snowy area, you will miss it when you head south.

Especially around Christmas. A nice white Christmas, with the fireplace going, family around.........that's pretty sweet.

1000%. I recently moved back to VA after living in Buffalo for about 9 years. I miss the snow a ton.

The other side of that coin is I got to drive the Mustang to work yesterday because it was 55 degrees and sunny.

I don’t know if I’d miss it or not. Definitely wouldn’t miss shoveling. It is nice to look at every now and then. We’ve got below zero daytime highs coming early next week, definitely not looking forward to that. A warmer climate definitely sounds appealing this time of year

Loved the winter and snow when I used to live in an area with lots of mountains where was going skiing every weekend for 3-4 months a year.

Winter in northeast is stupid and pointless - the most popular entertainment here during this time is mall shopping, and it just keeps dragging on and on until end of April and into May.

I'm in KY and it was super nice yesterday as well. I messed up by not driving the Mustang back when I ran home on my lunch.

I'd be happy if I never see snow again. Living where I'm at I get to drive my car year round and I love that. If I want to go snowboarding I'll fly someplace, spend a week or two, and come home. Snow... yeesh...

I got to enjoy Bills games in the elements every winter. Some of the best times with friends drinking beer and freezing your balls off.

I drive mine year round. It’s a blast in the fresh snow. Today was too much though, that chin spoiler would’ve been acting like a snow plow

I feel your pain Mark!!!!
I had that last Sunday morning to deal with.
