My ‘Stang
The TV Guide

As you may recall, I’ve been in the market for a new car for the past couple of months and I think I’ve finally settled on my choice … but because the car is coming straight from the assembly line in Germany (I’m going with another VW) I have to wait until the end of next month for it to arrive here in SoCal. In the meantime, I sold my current Honda Accord to my friend Mark back in Michigan so the car has to be shipped back home. Since I’m basically car-less until the end of next month, I had to rent myself a vehicle to drive around in while I wait … and this is what I ended up with:


It’s hot, huh? This Ford Mustang is brand new, it’s got less than 500 miles on it and it’s all mine for the rest of the week. Since I’m heading off to NYC then Europe for a couple of weeks this Sunday, I’ll have to give it up again … but I think I’m gonna rent it again when I return. I kinda like having my own Batmobile :)

Other than this exciting news … not much else to report. David goes back to NYC tonight and I’ll have a few days to prepare for our excellent London/Paris trip next week! Woot!

    You lead such a fantastic life Trent! I’m so jealous and definately suffer from wanderlust envy.
    Oh and cool ride. I cruise around in a black Ford XR8, so I understand your love of the car.

    Sweet ride. I can see you driving around with your bat sweater on racing around the streets of LA looking for some crime to stop! Have the best time in London and Paris!

    I have to say I’m a bit surprised a Detroit boy is so proudly buying a VW. You should stick with the Mustang :P

    Nice ride in the meantime.
    Best of luck on your trip.

    gas guzzler! let me know if you need me to convince you of how wasteful and expensive that car will be. with these gas prices, i don’t understand how anyone can buy such a pointless vehicle.

    All the GOOD VWs come from Germany or Canada. There is definitely a lot of production in Mexico but I’ve always been told to avoid any of the models made there (including half of Jettas-if you get a Jetta get a Canada made one). Passats def come from Ger…I know that because I have had 2 and LOVE them. I’ve also had Jettas & Golfs and loved them too.

    So TRENT, what model did you get??? VWs are GREAT!!!
    Congrats!
