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

I have a passion for the military and all that have served or currently serving. Unless you have served most people have any idea of the sacrifices these men and women go through to make sure you can sleep peacefully at night. Just imagine being isolated from your family for months to a year at a time with no idea how your family is doing because you are on a mission. Imagine your son or daughter playing in that championship game and you can’t be there to support them. These are just some small sacrifices. Some pay the ultimate sacrifice to make sure our country survives. I was only a small part of that sacrifice but some of my brothers and sisters paid the ultimate sacrifice after 9/11. The ultimate sacrifice might not be death, but living life with PTSD of some of those other sacrifices.

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!

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.

My car passion started early in life. My dream car is highlighted in the Dukes of Hazzard with 68 to 70 Dodge Chargers. I have owned over 100 cars with many of them Camaros and Mustangs. Current passion isn’t my car, but the car family I have built and surrounded myself with, Mid Atlantic Venom Outlaws. My car is currently bone stock but about to get a few mods to include GT500 spoiler, hydrodipped in american flags in the engine bay, and MBRP race exhaust.

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!

I served in the U.S. Army 3/101st AVN RGT at Fort Campbell as 68 X (15 Y) Armt Electrical systems repairer AH 64 and am currently the President of the Mid Atlantic Venom Outlaws.
