  • Purchase Story

    I know that we've had threads before where we've stated why we bought our thunderbird, but yesterday I heard a story that I just had to share.

    I was on the phone with a member of our board and ended up saying that I was going to a tbird event next week. In talking about it he stated that his daughter had a White retro bird and told me about the purchase decision.

    He said that they were looking at various convertibles for her to buy and one of the last ones to test drive was a BMW roadster. When she got back from the test drive he asked her what she thought. She responded "Dad - I know that the BMW may be better mechanically, but I LOOK better in the Thunderbird."

    They went back and bought the Tbird. He said that he had to agree with her and laughed that it was all about the looks and no doubt that the looks of the thunderbird turn more heads.

    If only you knew this gentleman - it was a pretty funny discussion.

    "Ain't it the truth. We ALL look better in our Thunderbirds!"

      Great story Vickie.
      She will find out she will also feel better in a Thunderbird.

        Thanks for that story Vickie.

        "I'd look good in that" That was my wife's comment when we pasted a used car lot that had a silver T-Bird sitting out front. That started my education about T-Birds, thanks Dot, and my search for a surprise gift for my wife. I purchased her '05 MSB about six months later.

        She was right - she looks good in it.
