Smile Re: Back in the day members

I first came looking/lurking here in Dec 2002 when I first became interested in the re-introduced '03 Mach 1. Didn't figured I'd be able to get one as initially production was going to be limited to 5000, 6500, or 7500 units. Fortunately for me the numbers kept climbing and I got one of the later ones. I didn't actually join the MR1 until after we bought my Mach 1 in Aug 03. Kept it nearly 8 years as my daily driver putting about 75,000 miles on the odometer. I calculated one time that I put over 15,000 miles of that just going to Carlisle and other Mustang shows on the East Coast. My wife had surprised me with the 2003 when I returned from one of my trips to Iraq. In 2010 she surprised me again with a 2011 Shelby GT-500 and again recently with a 2014 Shelby GT-500. I've always stayed a M1R member and still have a 1970 Mach 1 to enjoy too.

Many of us have gone one to other vehicles but we still come back to be with our old friends on the Mach 1 Registry.
