Went out to buy a Mustang, ended up with a Camaro.

Back in April my son and I were in Vegas and rented a Mustang convertible and cruised to Death Valley. I loved the car, i always wanted a Mustang convertible.

Most my youth I had a convertible but that gave way to mini vans and practical cars.

Last week now that my kids moved out and we had a bit of extra cash my wife said we should get the Mustang while we can still enjoy it so out we went to buy it.

Stopped at a couple Ford dealerships and test drove one, awesome then went to check a GM dealership where they had a used one but as I was looking at it something in the showroom caught my eye.

I fell in love with it and needless to say I now own a Camaro.

Sounds somewhat familiar. Went shopping for a mustang, had a bad experience at the dealership. They wouldn't even let me test drive a car without agreeing to spend at least x dollars/month to pay for it. Left pissed, went down the road to look at camaros... got behind the wheel and I was hooked.
