My mustang is a 03' built in 02'. So the pony is over 10 years old and has really just started to show its at the point of needing serious work. Its been my daily driver since I bought it in April of 2004 with roughly 75k miles on it now. The only parts I have had to replace besides normal maintenance parts is a air compressor. I have been through 4 alternators and just put in my third battery. I am still on the original clutch/tranny. I replaced the coil packs and plugs with ngk parts almost 3 years ago and has run like a top since. Well... seems like the years have caught up. Within one week, last week, my blinker goes nuts when turning it on to go left, my headlights went out for some still unknown reason, and my drivers window will no longer go down. :shrug:
To top it off, I have a 9 month old baby and getting him and his sister in the car with his stuff is an absolute nightmare. I always dreamed of keeping my mustang forever, especially considering its considerable personal meaning to me and my family, much less wanting it to be a future project car for me and the kids. Sadly, I need a bigger vehicle and the stang just won't cut it and I can't afford or am physically capable of keeping it, if I get another vehicle. The worst part of it all is I am liking the Ram Express and the deals with new dodge vehicles right now and not any F-150 :shrug:. Any input on a new Truck? Oh and end rant :cuss:
