The Mustang In Popular Culture

[NoReins]

YouTube is modern pop culture.

YouTubers with Mustangs: Adam LZ (GT350, 2.5M subs), Goonzquad (GT, 1.5M subs), TJ Hunt (Supercharged GT, 1.4M subs), ThatDudeInBlue (SN197 VMP, 1M subs), MotionAutoTV (EcoBoost drift project that disappeared, 410k subs), Matt Maran (Bullitt, 395K subs), DragTimes (GT500 on order, 230K subs), Mustang Lifestyle (various, 97K subs). StangMode (N/A GT, GT500 on order, 74K subs), Xander13 (GT, 25K subs), That1320Chick (Whipple GT, 17k subs).

Tons more I'm sure.

The "youtubers" are getting pointless. Out of that list, i probably watch ThatDudeinBlue and Matt Maran just because if they go to a Mustang related event its not the same video as the other youtubers.

Take events like Mustang Week and Ford Nationals people like Mustang Lifestyle, StangMode, Zander, JD JoyRide (i will watch him from time to time because i think his kid is cute with his love of cars), etc... they all hangout with eachother so the videos they upload is the same video as the previous person just with a different angle to the video.

….that episode briefly featured a Mustang

…..a bigger parody of the get-off-my-lawn trope.

Or get-your-butt-off-the-car, lol

Logan Lucky had some good scenes with a GT350

I watched that movie solely for the Mustang scenes! I wish the rest of the scenes could have been edited out.

Just watch It Chapter 2 this weekend. Has a 19 vert GT in it although I think some scenes it sound like an ecoboost and other scenes may be a different year because interior tells. Kind of like Italian Job remake with Mark Walberg has the 3 minis that keep changing from S models to base models during the car chase scene. I was laughing once I saw the mustang in It because of this thread lol

First off, you need to realize that us "car guys" are an extremely small minority of movie goers or T.V. watchers.

Most peeps don't give two $hits about cars, especially millennials.

I feel attacked.

 

[Bikeman315]

I feel attacked.

He meant all millennials except those who are on this forum. Right, VooDooDaddy?

 

[Sivi70980]

I feel attacked.

Isn't that also a "millennial" thing to say? Don't mind me, just stirring the pot...

I think it has something to do with the victim mentality - caused by the boomers, y'know.

Boomers ruin(ed) a lot but they have the coolest stories. I dare say they "lived" life, at the expense of those still around in some aspects. But I also counter that with just not knowing and doing what your government says is safe. The newer generations are likely doing the same thing and future generations will hate us for it too. I think it's a cycle orchestrated by people we'll never know......this isn't the place for any of this so I'll end it with saying it's much easier to just take the blue pill and carry on.

Any other places in pop culture mustangs live? Do any fighter pilots own mustangs? I doubt they all own crotch rockets like "Maverick".
