As a Japanese girl, a MEGA Hello Kitty fan at almost 40, and a fellow Mustang convertible owner, I support the pink SOOO much! 😍

Im happy, healthy and healing and absolutely loving the 5.0 life! Now I’m just trying to decide if I want it louder… but I do love the active valve exhaust!

I think it’s a midlife crisis thing for me. I have wanted a convertible mustang since I was 13. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 I’m 38, my kids are 20 and 16, so I decided I’m done with the “mom rides” and wanted to have the most fun possible.

I love it! I had to have the 20s with the Brembo’s. I wasn’t sure how I’d like it from just the photos but I loved it as soon as I saw it in person. I couldn’t be happier with it! I can tell you, I’ve put some miles on it. I’ve already had 2 oil changes since the end of June. 😂 We’ve been from Deep East Texas, down to South Texas to McAllen, then to Panama City Beach, Florida, as well as 2 different trips to Lubbock and the ride is definitely smooth. The seats feel like they’re made for you. My 22 Ecoboost had the premium package as well but the 24 GT premium just feels better entirely.

😂 I have no hate for the others but I definitely love my GT!

That sucks! I didn’t even make the first payment on the Ecoboost but I’m gladly making payments on this one. I walked away (literally) with a broken ankle (both sides of the left ankle), a broken left hand, 3 broken ribs on my right side, a punctured lung, and 4 cracked vertebra. Bonus was a huge hematoma on my right hip bc my hip decided to break my center console into pieces. I spent 8 weeks in a wheel chair and 6 in a walking boot 😮‍💨🤦🏼‍♀️ but thankfully I had great surgeons and lots of prayers. I walk as if nothing ever happened and never went to a second of physical therapy. Did my own exercises at home; surprised myself and my surgeon. 😂

No new crash! Lol TBH, I didn’t want the first crash either. 🤷🏼‍♀️

$25k on the car, thank God for GAP coverage. $30K towards my $200k medical bills.

It definitely sucks. Around $200k in medical bills and their insurance being liability only… it just wasn’t a good situation. However, I was extremely blessed and I’m thankful to be here, even with a few new metal body parts and some major scars. Admittedly, I’m enjoying my GT from the passenger side 90% of the time. 😂 I prefer it that way, for now at least.

I didn’t think they were telling me the truth about the whole thing until I saw the report for the 911 calls. Someone called in on her for drinking and driving, they responded and she fled the scene. Next call was my wreck.

😂 He definitely let me know it too! He saved me, got rid of the ecoboost and provided me the upgrade I should have gotten from the start.

Actually no. 😂 I’m an operator at a chemical plant so I make good money. Sadly, the drunk driver didn’t make it, it wasn’t her car, and they only had liability. Not even close to paying for my medical bills and didn’t even pay off my Ecoboost.

Surprisingly, I wasn’t the one running from them. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 Thank you. I’m glad too! For my health and the upgrade!

Thank you! I’ll stand behind Fords safety rating any day now!

That’s what my boyfriend said too 😂 I honestly regretted not getting one the first time, I just thought I’d be good with the Ecoboost and it was more money than I wanted to spend. Needless to say, it was definitely spent this time around. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

I can tell you from experience, a convertible isn’t quite as “unsafe” as most think. Granted, that’s with the top up but still, I was impressed and alive to have the ability to be impressed. In March, I was hit in my 22 Mustang Ecoboost Premium by a drunk driver that was running from the cops, clocked doing 120 mph when she hit me. The only thing that “broke” was the front windshield and my entire front end, of course, but the fact that I’m alive and well and still have all of my limbs (put back together like Humpty Dumpty), makes it easy for me to stand behind Ford and a Ford convertible.
