Thank You America

[stevec]

For Clint Eastwood and other amazing actors.

For Elvis, Rock n Roll and Rockabilly

For amazing trucks.

For amazing food (although I have had to cut down on some of it).

And heaps of other things. But most of all Thank You America for bringing me the 2015 Mustang GT with the steering wheel in the right side at last.

I have had my car for nearly two months now and I love it as much as the day I collected it, no, more than the day I collected it.

Only America would and has said that brute force performance can be affordable. The Ford Mustang is iconic and I am proud to have this awesome brute of a car parked outside my house

I will be over in a couple of years time. I am planning a road trip from Colorado to Vegas, Via Graceland (was thinking of it this year but the Mustang deposit has meant delaying it) and I cannot wait to land on American soil again, see your amazing cars n trucks and visit the home of my idol.

Thank you America! You are awesome

Haha......yes, I'm English born and bred, but I always feel right at home in America

I guess being a young kid in the 70's meant a diet of iconic American TV shows.....and nearly all of them had these awesome cars that left a big impression on that kid!

I know the grass is always greener, but I really do buy into the American Dream......so it's nice to be able to drive a little bit of it.

My heart belongs in a Mustang, being driven down the Pacific Coast Highway

I am working on my green cards as well. It's just taking forever for people from China.
I love United States. It's a great place to live, to work, to enjoy life.
I've been in the states for almost 10 years. Watching US tv shows growing up I always thought US was a better place to be and I was totally right.

Congrats, and awesome sentiments!
FYI, Graceland ain't between Colorado and Vegas... Not even close. But that's a good thing in your Mustang!

That is one fairly substantial detour :lol:

Happy memories

I'd always admired Mustangs from afar but Mrs TT and I decided to have our last dream holiday before we decided to have kids........so a Nevada/California road trip was planned. In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we did it again the following year. On both occasions, we hired a Mustang and it was then that I knew, one day, I'd have one of my own. Well, now I've got two


But this.....this is my "perfect American moment". There's that Pacific Coast Highway..... :love:

We hunted high and low for a Highway 1 sign :headbonk:

Road trip grime......it was snowing when we drove through the Sequoia National Park...

OP that would be an awesome road trip. Mustang = USA. :ford:

Europe is also very nice. I lived in Italy for 6 months and I traveled a bit around Europe. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the British Isles from top to bottom. I have ancestors in Scotland and other relatives have been there and they say it's awesome. Of all the countries I've visit, I still think the USA is the most wonderful country in the world especially California!! Hahaha. There's a direct flight from London to San Diego via British Airways. I recommend to visit San Diego (it's regarded as America's Finest City) and rent a Mustang convertible and take it all the way up to San Francisco via highway 1 like Twin Turbo did. One of the most breathtaking road trips you can ever take. Also, if you like wine, Baja's Valle de Guadalupe is Mexico's Nappa Valley. It's just 1 hour south of San Diego. There was and article on The Guardian about our wine country http://www.theguardian.com/travel/2014/jan/31/mexico-wine-trail-valle-de-guadaloupe-baja-california

If you like BBQ ribs, SD's Phil's BBQ is the best in the west. Grass fed Hamburgers and organic the place is SD's Burger Lounge.
Anyways, Congrats on your ride and enjoy it because you have an awesome piece of machinery!!

Americans can be so different from our friends overseas and over borders, often rubbing people the wrong way. However, our shared love of the Mustang binds us like brothers. :ford:

Yes I do love this country and all that it has to offer. Im originally from Albania, I've been living here since 1997, and have traveled a lot in Europe and recently South America, I can surely say with experience, there is no place like home in the USA. This country offers so much to a individual who is willing to work and hustle. I wouldn't live anywhere else. God Bless America!!!

Talking about road trips in Mustangs, everyone should check out the Vintage Mustang forums of the story of Kelly and her '66 Fastback. Right after it was restored, she got rear ended by an elderly man that wasn't paying attention. After the second rebuild she set across country for an adventure of a lifetime. She was even in Mustang Times.

This is from my 2013 trip to the US, also on California 1.

Loved the place so much, I returned last August.
