I see more older women in Mustangs here. Most Mustangs here are driven by older women, or teenage boys. Mostly older men in LS1 F-Bodies.

For some reason I get pissed off when I see old ladies in SS's or any car thats fast... I never see them utilize all that power

Do you buy a 4WD off-road vehicle for the street? no

Yup, when I was shopping for an LS1, there was a black SS in Maumelle with an, i'd say maybe 60-65 year old woman in it, I asked her if she'd be willing to sale it, since it had 13k miles on it and was an 01, and she looked at me like i was crazy and told me "honey, i'm absolutely in love with this car, and i won't sale it till the day I die." FAWWK! That's a true F-Body fan at heart

Well, you don't know for sure. Some people are neglectful of taking their vehicles for their regular maintenance. You know she probably didn't hammer it much though.

Yeah the lady drove it to and from work, a mile away. In the 8 years she had it, she only put 34k on it. Drove it through one winter, but then she hit a patch of ice and to avoid hitting the car infront of her, she swerved into a snow bank. Didn't do too much damage, tore up the front bumper cover tho (that's why I replaced my entire front bumper cover before I had it painted)

Dude, your story is IDENTICAL to the one of my old camaro, woman drove it for 9 years and put 32k miles on it driving it to and from work less than a mile away. the only part that doesn't fit is the whole snow bank part heh, we don't get snow in arkansas
