Transportation

As of right now, I have two methods of transportation.

Mine has a lot of mods, and a little road rash. I bought it used and wrecked and decided to live with a couple of the scratches that it has.
The mods I've done so far are:
  • Fender Eliminator kit
  • Integrated LED rear blinkers and tail-light
  • Flush mount LED front blinkers
  • After-market exhaust
  • Frame Sliders
  • Passenger Seat
It is a blast to ride, and there is just something good about knowing you are faster than 99% of anything you might encounter on the road. Not to mention the fact that you can speed anywhere in 1st gear.

1995 Ford Mustang
I have the distinct honor and privilege to drive the most recognizable car in my state. The "Grass-Stained, Bumble-bee", as it's known, received it's current appearance after a minor accident in June of 2006. Though it was mostly a fender-bender, the air bags deployed, rendering the car totalled, or so the insurance company thought...

After driving erratically while listening to Metallica, I was behind some kind of foreign SUV which I was trying to pass. I happened to do a blind spot check just as she was coming to a complete stop in the middle of the highway, because a teenager was standing on the corner, and she was afraid that he "might" cross the road. I slammed the clutch and break only to skid for like 40 feet, and "tap" the bumper of her SUV just hard enough to crack the hood, dent the fender, and, of course, deploy the air bags. The only injuries sustained in the entire crash were actually caused by my air bags... Worthless.

So after a few weeks of collecting parts, my dad helped me put the thing back together with a yellow hood, flat black fender, and a new radiator. I am still driving the beast around, steering wheel and dash board flapping in the wind, black fender rusting away, and yellow hood rattling over every Michigan pot-hole.

Without furthur adue, here she is, as seen from google maps:

Here is a closer shot of her from Microsoft maps:

As you can see, it's pretty hard to miss, so, by all means, if you happen to see a green mustang, with a yellow hood, honk and wave so that I know someone actually reads this stuff...

At least she is still running!

You could have mine for only $615 a month. But then you have to give it back in 3 years because it's a lease.:-(

Thanks for the offer, but though my car is junk, it is paid for!
