TERRY SULLIVAN SCARLETT - 2019 MUSTANG

CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO

MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!

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.

NOW THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT THIS CAR IS OWNED BY A FEMALE AND SHE IS PROUD OF IT!

The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!

My car is a 2019 Ecoboost Mustang Convertible. She is Ruby Red and I call her Scarlett. The only modifications I have done are the inside bling.

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!

Before I retired, I was too practical to even consider a convertible in Massachusetts. However, when I retired to Florida, driving with the top down and enjoying all the air and sunshine seemed like a really good idea. When I told my son I was buying a red Mustang convertible as my primary ride, he reminded me that when he was in high school, I had told him my favorite car was a Mustang. He said he didn’t understand it then and really didn’t understand it now. I got the feeling he thought I was too old to make such a choice.

As it turned out, buying the Mustang was a great idea. I joined clubs, entered car shows, even won some People’s Choice awards, met a lot of people, and really enjoyed cruising around. During the pandemic I got bored and decided I wanted more bells and whistles than my 2016 Mustang Convertible provided. That’s when I bought its 2019 twin that included a GPS, pony puddles, and apple play. I was a happy camper! The one thing that bothered me was when people (usually men) would ask me if the Mustang was my husband’s car. I didn’t have a husband and why would that ever be a question? As a result, I decided to “bling” out the interior of my Mustang. My steering wheel, shift, and dashboard are all decked out in rhinestones. Now there is no question that this car is owned by a female and she is proud of it!

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!
