TALKING WITH TJ

ELEANOR - 2022 MUSTANG GT

I became Mustang obsessed in 1968 at the age of seven. Bullitt, starring Steve McQueen, got my attention and 55 years later the obsession is still going strong. I bought my first Mustang in 1987, second in 1989, another in 2003, and now my all time favorite the 2022 Mustang GT Premium. Her name is Eleanor, no big surprise. I love the way she looks, the way she sounds, and the way I feel when I put the pedal to the metal.

Last October I got to check off a huge bucket list item. World Wide Technology allowed me to take pictures in the pit area, on pit road, and on the track. It was one of the happiest days of my life! I was able to share this incredible experience with my husband and son, who is also a Mustang fan. I hope the feeling of kissing the start/finish line never goes away!
