Ford Mustang Forums
Those of us who are self-employed need targets to drive us forward. It can be all too easy to work only enough hours to cover the bills and living expenses, and then sit back in front of the TV for the rest of the day. However, with a tangible target - something to set our sights on - we give ourselves the motivation to get out of bed on time, sit down and do some real work.
Every freelancer has a different target. Some aim for an expensive holiday every year. Others aim to pay off their mortgage within five years. For me, it's a car. Since the day I started driving I've owned crappy little compacts that barely have enough grunt to haul me to the top of a hill, and top out at 4,000RPM. When I started working for myself I set my sights on something with a little more power - the Ford Mustang.
From the frankly menacing looks to the sheer power, the Mustang is an American icon. For me, it's one of the most stunning cars ever built. I'm clearly not alone in this belief. With almost 50,000 members, the Mustang Forums are home to thousands of fellow fans. With sections for trading cars and parts, tuning tips, debates about which is the best model and simple bragging and showing off, the Mustang Forums are a petrolhead paradise.
For those of you interested in the Mustang, there's a fantastic Ford Mustang timeline detailing the development of the model through the years, including everything from engine specs to the way the exterior styling was changed. It also looks at forthcoming Mustang models, from the 2007 model with the mean-looking slanted grille to the sleek, futuristic looking 2009 concept model.
Well written, entertaining and informative, I give the Mustang Forums five stars. Go now. I'll still be here when you get back.
