Throw that white mustang into

December 09, 2002

Throw that white mustang into the curves. I asked for an economy car and they were all out. I received the complimentary upgrade to middle aged America’s 5 liter wet dream. In the spirit of always using something to the full extent of its intended function I put the sucker to a week long durability test. It will get rubber in reverse quite easily. The turning radius sucks but if you’re going fast enough it isn’t so much a factor. The stereo will not make a Bolton CD sound better but I suspect a lot of Bolton gets airtime in those cockpits. This is speculation since I mostly listened to freakish talk radio. Sometimes the automatic trunk opener has a mind of its own. If the trunk is open while you drive it can aid in the downward force on the rear wheels. If you’re inside a car long enough you eventually forget what you look like from the outside -- Farah Fawcett. If its dark . . . even better. Its best to find some way to enjoy the best parts of everything. Sure I wouldn’t be caught dead buying that car but I don’t always have to be me. I’m in touch with my inner Fawcett.
