Mustang of the Month

Bill Day
2022 Ice White Coupe

My Mustang adventure started in 2009. My 4x4 stepside Ranger had more than 205K miles on it and I wanted to get another one. I went down to Sumner Ford and started looking. I didn't see anything I liked but they had some of the fifth generation Mustangs that I liked, and they wanted a sale. Drive it, drive it, drive it he kept saying. So, I test drove a white 2009 V6 Premium with 3K miles and I really liked it. They gave me a deal I couldn't refuse.

Now it's summer of 2024 and the car has more than 430K miles on it. I've been driving it from Bonney Lake to Everett. It became the most reliable, trouble-free car I have ever owned. Rain, snow, high heat, the car always got me there and home late at night. I have been driving a 2018 AWD Explorer every day for about 3yrs and my neighbor buys the Mustang. Now I have room for the late model Boss Mustang I've wanted.

So, I started looking at Mustang after Mustang and learning a lot along the way. I decided a 2019 GT premium would be it. 5yrs old lots of new technology, low miles, and a good deal is what I wanted. Then I saw a 2022 ice white appearance package with the white wheels, clear taillights, white and black trimmed interior, digital dash, B&O 12 speaker stereo, and lots of other confusing crap. I said to myself "you better make this last a long time" and bought it. So far, I really like it. I've learned to drive a stick again and it is quick.

Now summer of 2025 is coming and I'm thinking I would like to lose the Explorer and get another 5th gen 4L V6 AUTO Mustang to drive every day. Red, gotta be red. Anyway, something to think about...
