Getting tired of the Mustang
 
Not sure what has happened, but I am just really blah about the Mustang lately. I don't know why? I don't look forward to driving it..I don't look forward to cleaning it..I go a long time without giving it a bath these days. The wheels will get nasty so I have to spend an hour or 2 polishing them so they look like they used to. I haven't cleaning the inside in about a month 1/2. There is sand from the beach all in it..

I just don't know. I walk outside and just don't see the same car I saw a few months ago. I would do mods, but I am getting ready to buy a house in a couple of months so that would not be responsible of me?

Does this happen to you? What do you do when it does?:(

well since yer down in FL...

if it was a vert you would NEVER get tired of it...

I think you need to buy a super charger... or... look into maybe buying a newer better mustang of some sort...

I think as ya get older ya tend to not care for cars as much as ya used to...

unless you are in some scenario where you deal with different cars on a daily basis like foose etc

EDIT^

or make it a weekend driver... buy a daily driver... only take it to shows etc... ya'll appreciate it alot more if you drive a honda 5-6 days a week

PColav6 07-05-2006 06:38 PM

I'll take it off yer hands if you're sick of it, gladly. LOL

But in all seriousness, it's probably just a phase... I hate my mustang, because right now it's a stock POS with the ugliest wheels in the world on it. But then I sit and imagine how it will lookk once I get some work on it and how much hapier I'll be to drive it.

What you could do - see if you have a friend with a civic or something, ask him to drive it. And once you're done, you will feel a lot better because you have a Mustang. :punk:

GREG@SN95 07-05-2006 06:43 PM

honestly...

I enjoy just sitting in a mustang... its like no other car... its so comfortable and there is just something about it... something I did't feel in any GM i test drove...

1 BAD S 07-05-2006 06:48 PM

i was the same way. i was drivein my car everywhere, to school, work, ect... but now i drive her maybe once a week and i cant get enough of her. if you sell her and get another car, sure you might like that car for maybe a year, then youll be back in the same boat your in now. i say just try not to drive your stang that much. youll see how much you miss it then

I am holding out on a daily driver. I should be getting one sometime in October. Yes it is a ways off, but it is kind of a long story.

I'll buy yours if he sells his and you buy his.....

RedFirevert04GT 07-05-2006 07:18 PM

Dude I've gone through the exact same phase several times. I just put so much into it, keeping it clean, showing it off every saturday night, modding, troubleshooting...then you just get burnt out. It's more than just a car man, it's a hobby. Just like with every other hobby in the world, you need a break from it every now and again. About once a year I find myself not washing her or cleaning her up like I should. Then I clean it up real good and get all kinds of compliments and envious looks, then it's all good again.

Icefreezen 07-05-2006 07:19 PM

I'll take your car off your hands and sport that thing...lol

stang00 07-05-2006 07:21 PM

Lances03SVT 07-05-2006 10:29 PM

Donnie hell,I go through the same thing every now and then.I really considered getting another truck Monday untill I was at the dealership looking at new trucks and everyone kept asking about my Stang and I realized that I would be crazy to get rid of it now after all the time and money I have put into it.
I looked at alot of VERY nice truck's.Was looking at a King Ranch edition 4x4 that was soooo sweet but once I looked back at the Stang I knew I could'nt do it.

00mustang_crazy00 07-05-2006 10:53 PM

dsdaddy 07-05-2006 10:58 PM

:beerchug:

TEXASPAUL 07-05-2006 11:05 PM

i say u just blow it or drop a 5.4 or somthing to make it even more awesome....that will make u fall in love again....

Badfish 07-05-2006 11:21 PM

and you all gave me crap when i wanted to sell mine! lol!


fuggin hypacrits. i know how you feel man. im kinda feelin that way too...even with spray :/ but im taking a break from the stang and i do less stang related things (i.e. instead of reading forums, getting high/partying with freinds :D) and have them drive me around everyday.

NoKturnaL 07-06-2006 02:01 AM

itz ah faze...You'll pull through.

Rabbit 07-06-2006 07:10 AM

Just do what I just did. Take a week and a half vacation without even seeing your car! It will definatly make you appreciate it when you see it again!

SpinMedia 07-06-2006 09:58 AM

like everyone is saying, drive a less attention car, like a civic or something, for a week, and then you will want to drive the stang again. If not, just strip the car and dump it in a lake and collect insurance money and buy a vette. :)
