Poll
Question: If you owned all three, which would you save?
Don't foxes eat Cats? Don't Cats eat Birds? There was even something about a Mustang.
lol, I love these cars; it's nice to know that there are so many other people in love with the notion of a Cougar or a Thunderbird; I am not alone!!!!
So, I ask... you vote, I am more curious than anything else.
If your house / garage was burning to the ground, and you could only save either your Cougar, Thunderbird or Mustang... which oh which would it be?
Not that I am stirring up :shakeass: or anything... just putting it out there. :D
, Cougar people are winning....:birdsmily: :beatyoass: :cougarsmily:
;)
My sister might love you for that. :flame:
:D
:laughing: :p
not anymore
44.44%
for Cougars and T/Bird's;)
and Mustangs nah i'm done with them.. i have enough problems with my hemroids. driving a mustang is like sitting on a cinder block!while driving down the road..
i'm ALL SET!
:EDIT: oh the battle continues 52.38% vs 38.10 in favor of the T/birds..
I think it would depend on which one I had the most money into/mods done to. I voted T-bird because I just love the rear glass and the front end so much...lol.
Birds getting eating, where not talking about any normal bird now where talking about a THUNDERBIRD.:birdsmily:
one more for the:birdsmily:
aw man, now were losing
The only losers in this pole are Mustangs :hick:
hypothetically, if i had a choice between saving my 86 tbird or my former 91 mustang from burning i would have to save my stang. not that i dont care for my tbird but it was here first and theres memories and sentimental value there.
I'd have to say that for me, it would all depend on what years they are.
:bowdown: Here's another vote for Cougar's because they rock
, the birds are doing very well.:D :burnout: :birdsmily:
And those that can't use the proper form of "poll" ;)
:hick:
I voted Bird I must it is my pride and joy. Besides all 3 of the cougars that I own are already outside. Da bird in the shop and the house on FIRE! straight the bird is getting pulled out of the shop. 2 of my cougars are in storage elsewhere. I would have to save the bird. But once the bird is done and I get a title to my 85XR7 I'm gonna work it over. I like the Birds' most then comes the Cougars then I guess if I must the stang comes into play. Not that the Stang is bad just everybody has one kinda Like a 69'camaro or a 57 Chevy bel air.
Me for the win!
The Thunderbird, without a seconds' thought.

Food for thought - since someone must've figured after the "club" post that it would be fun to pit us against each other - which almost never happens here BTW.
Those are really good numbers for both cars. Ahhh what could have been...
Cougars rule.
Yes, they rule second place like no other. :shakeass:
I guess no one really cares about a mustang.
but if I had a new one i would save it from the fire and sell it. then buy myself another fox bird and cougar. or mabe 2 of each.
I voted T-Bird.
I picked T-bird. I wonder why.........;)
Makes the looks I get at the race track all the more satisfying. :D
I wonder if this vote would go a whole different way if we were referring strictly to 4-eyed cars...I'd pick a 4-eye cougar over a 4-eye T-bird anyday...story obviously changes when I look at the '87-'88's though.
i like the looks of cougars more, but if it were me personally. i'd save my bird. its the lowest milage, best condition bird ive ever seen (in real life) by far. not only that, but ive spent what i paid for the cougar in parts alone for the bird. thats a hell of a dent in my pocket. it'd suck having to igve up the DD cougar...but i think if my house burned down, i'd have alot more to worry about.
I wonder how many of those cars sold have visited this site?
If everybody thats been through here had at least 1, including visitors. I'm sure it would be a good amount of cars.
and no, I wasn't getting at anything with the "club post". like I said it was a stupid question. (in case anyone was wondering)
Back to the original post---------
I honestly would pick the car i put the most into. that would include time , driving and memories. (the reason i'm not trashing my car).
That's because most already know that the Cougars are:
Faster
shagier
Cooler
Smarter
an all that other stuff :D
4 EYED CATS RULE!!!!!!!!:burnout:
I think if you have 4 fox cars, you should be able to vote 4 times......YES? Where's Karl?
I can't pick one. I'd be pissed if I couldn't save all of em.
Besides after seeing this: http://forums.beyond.ca/st/193160/my-worst-nightmare Someday, ya know, when I'm rich and famous and I build myself a big ol' garage/shop its gonna have sprinklers or one of those foam-dispensing systems whatever SOME type of robust fire-suppression system.
That link WILL ruin your day, or at least a few minutes. Very sad.
Can we Ban ZondaC12 for posting that link (j/k) thats just WRONG!!
Okay, really, I didn't mean to stir up any :toilet:
I had only asked because earlier this year, my residence (and adjacent garage & shed) burned to the ground. Thank-fully my Cougars were about 30 miles from that place.
Fortunatly, nobody was hurt. I just lost ALL of my stuff, including my five cats (of the feline variaty however) and my 2003 Chevy Cavalier was no more after that day.
Okay, so I cracked after seeing that last post.
If I had to choose between my Cougars, I couldn't. We would all burn together.
I think we can close this thread now. lol
Might be nice, but there's only ONE fire.
My garage has a fire extingusiher. I don't know how much that would help though :hick:
I saw those on a site a guy visits at work. Pretty wild, and there were some realy nice cars in there.
That would realy suck, and I don't think anyone would want to have to choose. Of course, you always have to go with the one that's closest to your heart, oh after you save the wifes car first of course :D or you might end up in the fire yourself.
Well I got TWO fire extinguishers! One of em is like 15 years old I think, the other is probably 20, and I don't think it works! BITCH!!! PWN3D!!!!! Well...not really :hick:
Atleast I know mine works ;)
Does that mean I get to vote 5 times?
Take a guess which way I voted....
I would save the cougar... doesn't mean much being that I only have a bird now...
i have never liked the formal roof line of the fox body cougars, and fox body mustangs are easy to find. i wish i had my 84 :birdsmily: back though.
My 86 XR7 I drove to Georgia to get....I have worked on the car for about 5 years...lots of blood and knuckles. That car is in the garage at all times. Although I just picked up a really nice 88TC for a DD. But the 86 wins every time..plus it goes high 12's with lots of stock old parts. Who could not love that.
