A New Mustang and even maybe a New Camaro?

A couple of days ago i was reading off of Moter Trend's website and I saw a story of how the mustang was going to get a makeover in 2015.  I saw some of the pictures of the Mustang and to me it looks like its just going to be a shinier and newer Evo.  But still something that I have noticed is with these pony cars is when one company changes the body style than another company changes the body style of their car.  I noticed this relevant back with cars like the Pontiac Firebird how it had a new body style in 70 from the original body style in 69.  This is also apparent with the Cheverolet Camaro how it had some change from 69 to 70.  Even Cheverolet did this with the Camaro at the time.  Oh and by the way these body styles that i am calling them re actually called generations.  But anyways, what worries me that Cheverolet may decide to go with the flow that Ford is doing and decide to begin creating a new generation for the Camaro just to give the Mustang competition for buyers like you.  I think though that now the Camaro is actually a really nice looking cars like the 12 version is really nice and in my opinion a lot nicer than the mustang.  I hope Camaro doesnt do it but i feel they will. 

Cars, Gas, Advice Too???

Cars are at that point where there is nothing better than them now.  We are finding out new ways to make them all better as long as your ready to pay that extra buck.  But what worries me is what is going to be happening in the future for cars.  I honestly doubt well have anything like those in the TV show the Jetsons except what I am worried about is that right now we are hitting well a period of just crappy cars.  This is only a opinion but this wouldnt even be just the first period because weve seen a period of crap before in 85-95.  We had just hideous cars because at that time people were understanding that they needed better gas mileage.  Back then yes they worked to it and they set us up for today as a landmark as how cars could possibly be.  Now though we see people going to dealers going to used car lots and all they care about is the gas mileage.  There all going there looking for Civics and Corrollas with the 21st century body styles.  And these are expensive too depending on the gas mileage.  Back in 01 if you wanted a new car you could go out and buy a base new VW Jetta for just about 15k now that idea is gone and people are having to pay like a good 12k-13k for just like an 07 corolla.  Its all dependent on the mileage though.  I mean though people are being looking at Corollas now that are really not even nice looking cars to me but wouldnt you rather get something like a Cadillac CTS,  Sure obviusly it would have more miles and you would be paying more on gas but guess what ive noticed as a trend on craigslist lately.  These cars like the CTS are going for the same prices as those corollas.  Now i dont know if something is wrong with those cars or something but still.  People need to start looking and weighing their options before they just jump to conclusions about these cars.  Think it through.  To me its CTS>Corolla.

Happy Birthday Ford Mustang!

Today is the Ford Mustang's 48th birthday.  I honestly can say that i hate the mustang and that its a horrible in my view.  But throughout these 48 years you can notice change coming through.  Ford started the Mustang as a small call that they werent sure would completely work.  The mustang is a huge reason of Ford's success in the years.  I feel that Ford would not be were they are today if back 48 years ago today the decision of the Ford Mustang was made.  I may hate it but it still is a great car for people to look up to and thats how it went into the hearts of people all around the world.
