My lovely wife informed me the other day that she "really likes" the
new little Mustangs and might want to buy one.

She's looking at a 2007 "V6 Premium," with the 4 liter V6, 5-speed
auto, and anti-lock brakes with traction control, and a bunch of
other accessories. Our local dealer is more than willing to "make a
deal."

Any thoughts about this vehicle as an "everyday car?" Most of my
wife's driving is suburban, with very few trips of more than, say,
50 miles.

I drove such a vehicle recently and thought the
power-brakes-handling were more than adequate. Any ideas about gas
mileage, reliability, that sort of thing?

I'd prefer she buy a new top of the line Toyota, but she wants
something sportier.

Wimmins!


She'll probably get similar mileage with the 4.7L V8 and it'll make
it a lot "sportier".

She's a woman. To her, a sporty car is one that looks sporty. It
doesn't have to act sporty.

I'd still rather she went with a Toyota.

Odd choice from a union man...
