Is my Maverick just a joke?

I've found lot of younger people don't know who made the Mav/Comet and I can’t blame them the only wording on mine is Maverick. I was pleasantly surprised this July getting it inspected that the kids working there loved it and its nice rumbling sound. The manager told me next time he will have me drive it in the bay because they all wanted to drive it in and out. I was surprised again when my friends 23 year old son was working there so when my car was finished I told him go ahead Chris I know you want to and handed him the keys.

 

i blame the fathers of all the teens that have ricers and not sticking with american classics. i am 18 and all the cars we owned have been ford besides my brothers impala(he is an import guy his impala has a body kit under glow and leds crap) and my mothers jeep. i will always have a ford or chevy

 

keep your head up dude it all takes time my mav aint no art work but i love it and thats all that matters.

This is when you throw glasspacks on it and put 351 emblems on the side! THat will get their heads turning.

 

haha totally throw glasspacks on it

i got cherry bombs on my 302 no matter what people look

 

People do not have the power to bother you as much as you have the power to let them. Live by it!!!

 

i agree with what has been said, do what you do and respect will be shown. maverick is a good part of american history.

also ill throw glasspacks on every maverick/comet ill ever own ,

 

^ I kinda thought the same thing till last night!
Went to a new friends house(forum member) to mess with my maverick
and get a "overall" sense of what it needs, and learned some valuable knowledge
about the "old car" mind-frame.
Its the "feel" you get behind the wheel. Its the "sensation" you get when you walk out your door and see your car in your driveway, even in your car's current state
you know your car is "awesome"! and viewing your car inside your head you see what it will/can be with a little work and passion.
With some of the cars I have owned, I have been laughed at and shunned away many times,. Dont listen to them! But when someone give "constructive" opinons, dont stray.

dont worry about what anyone says about your car, unless they making payments or buying parts and working on it heck with them.a lot of the younger guys and older too just havent a clue as to the potiental a maverick has.and besides , it different from the crowd , never did like following , allways wanted to be different, ive mustangs , camaro and other cars, but i play in the maverick. ask jason (gestiva) he came by last nite and we tinkered with his mav(which by the way is a very kool car). he let me drive it to a gas station with him and soon as we pulled in it drew looks, when i cranked engine to go a group of guys in a car , al smiling and shouting kool car , jasons car has a nice rumpty rump. so there will be those who like your mave. dont give up on it and dang sure dont let anyone discourage you. good luck with your car.

 

^He didnt just say cool car while walking to his car, He drove over to us and said it again!

 

I would love to share my car with you I took some pictures but I can't find the "Pictures and albums" link on my user CP. Help? sorry

 

Upload them to photobucket then post them here. Thats what I did.
Also, you have to have 10 posts to upload them to gallery I think.
^your at 9, so maybe it doesnt show up till 10?

 

ok well maybe after this post I will be able to thanks

 

I get a lot of people that don't even know what a Maverick is or who made it. I get a lot of people who say "I used to have a Maverick" or "You don't see many of them around". But at the end of the day, I own it because I LOVE IT! My first car was a Maverick and the love affair started there. Drive what you want to drive and love what you want to love! Most people who talk crap are just jealous anyway.

well , lets see it
