That’s where I am now. I have transitioned to working from home, so I put very little mileage on my car. I don’t think I’ll “need” a new car for quite some time.

Never been a Mustang guy. Just not my thing at all.

I had an 89 Camaro, an 88 Shelby Daytona Z, an 89 Probe GT Turbo too. Toyota 4x4. Jeep Wrangler…for some reason I liked that Mustang most.
I’ve always been more attracted to European sports cars. Probably because there are so many Mustangs on the road, they just seemed too common. My dream car was always a Porsche 911, but with as little as I drive anymore, I can’t see that ever becoming a reality. It just doesn’t make any sense to spend that kind of money on a car I only use to drop off my daughter at school.

You should do it.
New work laptop comes in today. Hopefully the battery on this one lasts more than a minute when it's unplugged.
Our dog passed away this morning. It was no surprise, as he's old and been going downhill for the last month. Spent over $400 at the vet last week on tests that told me pretty much what I already knew.
Knowing that it was coming didn't help much.

Yikes. That’s gotta hurt his chances in the afterlife.
I just can’t make it make sense. My wife’s cousin just bought one and my wife said I should pull the trigger on it as well (mostly a keeping up with the Joneses thing), but I can’t justify spending that kind of money on a car I’ll likely drive less than 1,500 miles a year.

I could write a book on this guy and the things that prob keep him out of Heaven (at least temporarily). Guy was a genius in HS. Tapped into the phone lines of his neighbors. Cut the brakes on his dad’s car. Ran his whole family out of the house - as in he lived in a giant colonial alone - in HS. We used to shoot fireworks off of his roof. After being abandoned by his family he went to UCLA to study astro-physics. Last I heard he’s working on space program shit for the military. Fell out of touch after graduation.

It is what it is. Finance people tend to be more frugal because we live it. But we deserve to be spoiled too. You know what I mean. You buy a 911 you ain’t buying it to day drive anyways.

Pic is off Wiki but a friend of mine own a '69 Boss 302 in this paint scheme back in the 70s. By far, my favorite Mustang

I’ve got an alpina b7. The 7 series only recently came out with an M series. Before it did, Alpina was the equivalent of that. I don’t know about the suspension on the M7 but the Alpina is extremely luxurious while also being extremely fast.
Good luck with the car @RobBase (c) . Enjoy!
