Get carded here! June 27, 2005, 07:40:23 AM I was just looking to get an age demographic for the community here. I'm 22 and have owned a tbird since I was 17. How old (or young) are you?*EDIT*If you're older than 50, sorry. Just vote in the 40-50 category. I didn't think there were TOO many members over 50 and I can't edit my poll. Quote Selected

House payment, car payment, kid on the way, putting the wife through college (she's 9 credits shy of her Master's degree) without student loans because I don't feel like payin for that for 15 or 20 years, a dog, 2 cats, a brother constantly asking for loans.....yup my youth is still here, but the foolish part IS gone.Got my first cougar at 17 and have had this one since I was 21.

Re: Get carded here! Reply #12 – June 27, 2005, 01:09:33 PM I'm 22 years old, bought my first Thunderbird last fall, a '91 with a 3.8, killed a deer with it this winter and decided it needs retiring.

I drive a rusted and dented primer black 88 Bird. Right now the thing wont even move. So no I'm not the coolest thing on 4 wheels. Had the car since 14, now I'm 17. Paid $150 for the car and put at least 300 in it. Well more like 175 since the HO isnt in it yet. Quote Selected
