This last weekend I had my Maverick at the Goodguys event in Del Mar, CA. I have never owned a car that got so much attention before. The comments people were saying were great. Only a couple of bow tie die hards were negitive, but more people took photos of it over the Crower race car (Nova) next to it. Our cars are coming of age! How many will we have at the Fabulous Ford Show at Knott's Berry Farm on the 17th? I know they do not have a Maverick class, but we can change that for next year if we can get a few. Heck even Ford Probes have there own class.
ditto... i argee.. i think they are becoming to popular now.. anyone wanna buy mine! i'm gonna buy something else! as for the chevy guys on their comments.. there are always stuck up bastards that have no tact... infact that comment will be directed to the guy that i parked next too tonight. he gave me continous dirty looks for parking next to his tralier queen! that guy can bite me! i also like another comment i got tonight... "gee why don't you drive a import" like whats thats supposed to mean? sorry just venting... as for knotts... all i know is my two (not three) mavericks will be there along with one other guy that will following me down. so that makes only 4.. BUT I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE IS COMMING!!! as for the others i e-mailed (AHEM!!!!) only a few responded back (AHEM!!!!) and most coundn't make it. but i love how they used to have maverick class... and now they don't.. :confused: the funny thing is last year and the year b4 were the most maverick i ever saw there. btw bob did you get the magazines i sent?
Yes I got them when I was home for a few days last week. I'm in Orlando now and Yes I did get them. I put one on the top of the dash when I was in Del Mar. Thank you, Thank you for sending them. I owe ya a drink at the Ford show.
My Maverick's have always got attention, and I have owned um since 1974. I really think the heartland of America took to them waaaaaaaaaaaaay before the left and right coast. Glad to see your population base is catching up with us here in the midwest! Of course,, all of us knew it waaaaay before the average layman. Dan
I really wanted to make it to Knotts Berry Farm this month. But, my wife can't get off work until Wednesday. I took the week off, hoping to make it.....Maybe next year! Besides, aren't all the openings soldout? Let me know ASAP....My wife just said I could go, if I can get registered.....Woohoo!!!!! Never mind! I just checked the site, I'm to late....Boohoo!!!!
Coop, When our Falcon club rep went to the meeting on the show last Saturday they had close to 1800 entries. They closed entries today. It's gonna be a heck of a show. To bad ya can't enter, but you could still go to the show. Being a spectator is still FREE! Dan, There seems to be a lot different car tastes between the coasts. On the old stuff ('40's and older) the left coast is Ford country, but when I was back in Indy last summer, the GM stuff was all over the place. The Ford show here gets sold out every year. There is always room at the bow tie and slow par shows.
