Hello,
I am new to the group, as I just bought my triple black GT5.0. I have always dreamed of having a Mustang since I was 15 years old. I never actually thought I would ever own one. My husband on the other hand has had 4 Fox Body Mustangs before we met. I have always been the one to be a little frugal with money, so it never made sense to me to buy me a car like this. BUT THEN, funny story... My husband was wanting to look at a new truck because he wanted more bells and whistles on the truck that pulls our Airstream. So, when we drove on the lot, I said to my son, "If he gets a new truck, mama gets a Mustang". (totally kidding of course.) Long story short: the following week we bought what I now call Elphaba, because to me she is "Wicked". Originally when we bought it, it was going to be a toy for the both of us. BUT THEN... he buys a GT350, because he kept making references to the fact that we should have bought that. I told him I was not comfortable driving Elphaba yet, let alone driving GT350. So, he goes and buys one in white and blue. And now we get to go to Charlotte, NC to have a race day with professionals teaching us how to drive our cars. I am now so super excited to have these cars that I am learning as much as I can't wait until we get into the Mustang meet ups and just really enjoy what the car really has to offer.

That's so typical. I can relate to it. :D
One of the little-known secrets of a long and happy marriage is that his car must always be a little bit better than yours. It doesn't matter how he defines 'better'. It can be a bit faster, or a bit bigger, or more beautiful, or more red, or a convertible, or AWD, or whatever. So yes, if you've got a GT, then he must get a GT350 for himself. It's only natural. :D

My wife is the reason we have a Mustang GT instead of a Porsche. Sometimes you have to pick your battles.

Your wife understands operating costs better than you do apparently. LOL! You set yourself up for that one.

Elphaba 2017, you must be a wonderful woman, for both you and your husband to end up with 2 new Mustangs, and no drama.
You wouldn't believe the steam that was generated when I traded my paid off 13 Mustang GT for a 2019 GT PP2. And I did it for HER, because I can adjust the ride for her comfort.
Yeah, you probably don't buy that argument either.

By the way, did he get the truck?
