& MODEL INFO JAMES & TESSA SPIELMAN EL –2018 MUSTANG GT
MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!
I BELIEVE SHE HAS FOUND HER FOREVER STABLE!
I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.
I got my first Mustang at 17 years of age with a 1989 Mustang LX with a 5.0 and GT interior. I later had a 1993 Mustang GT. Both of these cars were lookers in their day. After three kids and a lot of life, my wife and I decided to buy the 2018 Mustang. The first time we drove her we fell in love and just had to have her. We have named her Eleanor or “El” for short. She is a garage queen who only comes out during the summer and nice weather.
If you asked me if I thought I’d be writing an article for STANG Magazine for my car this time last year I would’ve said no. If you asked me if I would be writing it about a different car than the 2005 Roush Mustang I had I would’ve said hell no. I loved that car but acquiring this one reinvigorated my passion for car shows and events!
My wife and I enjoy going to Ford and Mustang shows with her. She can also be seen at local cars and coffee events. This year we took her for the longest drive since getting her and took her to Ponies in the Smokies and the Tail of the Dragon. I have a high stress job and she often goes for “therapy” drives in the evenings. The car is awesome to drive and garners a lot of compliments. She even has her own Instagram page @ magnetic_five.0. I believe she has found her forever stable!
The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!
Members of the STANG Mag family are more passionate about fun and inclusion than they are their cars and that says a lot! I can’t wait to see what’s to come in 2022!
Mods include 2018 Ford Mustang GT Premium Performance Pack 1, Magnetic metallic paint, lowered on Steeda Progressive springs and Steeda shocks and struts, front camera integrated into factory screen, MBRP Street exhaust, and 25mm wheel spacers.
