No one cares about the name behind a car. The original mustang was a high volume piece of shit car that only resonated with Boomers.

You're not far off if you're implying I'm a Boomer. Gen X. But younger generations call us Boomers anyway (e.g. Boomer Shooter, in reference to games like Wolfenstein 3D, Duke Nukem 3D, and DOOM). So if you call 1979-1980 and back Boomers, then, guilty.

I will grant you that my love for the older Mustang is nostalgia for the way it looks. I do not actually want to own one.
