New Decade

Just a few days left and we will finish this decade, and the first 20 years of this century.  It doesn't seem that long ago we were finishing up 1999, and ready to enter the 21st. century.
I was thinking about that this morning, and looking at some old photos, and realized that was the last time I owned a yellow Mustang. Our 1999 Mustang GT was a lot of fun for us, and very popular at car shows. People would walk past a line of Mustangs, and stop to walk around ours, and talk to us about it. That's when we first noticed how much attention the bright yellow color attracts.
After a few years, the yellow 99 was followed by a number of red Mustangs, with some pretty awesome cars among them. The 2003 "Terminator" Cobra, and 2007 Shelby GT 500, were a couple of the most rare and powerful cars I have ever owned.
I have enjoyed all of my cars, no matter what color they were, but for years we kept thinking how much we enjoyed having a bright yellow Mustang. When we saw that they would have a sharp yellow option available for the 2015 models, we knew we wanted one. We special ordered a 2015 premium GT in the bright "triple coat" yellow. It has been a joy to own and drive, and the color still attracts a lot of attention at car shows, and supermarket parking lots. I get comments almost every time I drive it. Even people who generally don't like yellow, comment on how much they like it on that Mustang.
