New Addition to Our Ford Family

3 Mar 2009

Here is the latest (and 5th if you're counting) addition to our Ford family. The tungsten metallic grey 2006 Ford Mustang GT. We love him. The suspension is tight and the leather luxurious. And oooooohhh....so fast. The downside? Jared will NEVER be able to find his car in the hospital parking lot ever again.

Ode (in picture form) to the yellow 2002 Ford Focus ZX3 purchased brand new for $14,000 in November 2002, now gone, traded in at the dealership in March 2009, cast aside...like an old glove!

Take note of the bike racks on the ZX3. They are the same as the ones on the Taurus Wagon (below). Good old bike racks, we'll miss you the most!

Here are our other Fords - with us in spirit, but rusted in body.

The white 2005 Freestyle, not rusted, just terribly pitted with Dallas, Texas-size hail dents. Purchased in June 2008 for $10,000 and still going strong. We love your 7 seats and CD player. We will drive you every day!

The 2000 Ford Focus Wagon SE at Yellowstone. Purchased in July 2003 for $7200 and sold in April 2006 for $5500. You served us well.

And the ever popular 1994 Ford Taurus Wagon LX in Provo Canyon. Purchased in August 2000 for $3,500 and sold in February 2004 for $600. You sure had nice LX features! Ahhh, the days of the automatic headlights. This one had the distinctive feature of stickers on the rear window from every college or university we had either attended or instructed at (Utah Valley State College, University of Utah, Brigham Young University, Utah State University, LDS Business College, and Provo College). We couldn't see out that window very well.
