WIFE’S PROMISE–2003 MACH 1

The Ford Mustang runs in my family. At one point, my family’s household had a total of seven Mustangs at once, ranging in years from 1994-1999. When I graduated high school in 2003, I was given a 1996 yellow Mustang. I had that car from 2003-2012 and drove it in the winters of Minnesota the last two years I had it.

In 2012, I had just met my wife. We weren’t dating at the time, but I called her after I sold the Mustang and she promised if we ended up together she would buy me another one to replace the 1996. Fast forward to 2019, I was browsing Facebook and found the Mach 1 for sale only a few blocks from our home in Inver Grove Heights, MN. We went to look at it and took it for a drive and I fell in love with it. My wife could tell immediately that I wanted the car. The next morning, as my wife had promised me, she went to the bank and took out the loan to buy the car. She kept her promise.
