In a classic American showdown, the Ford Mustang galloped past its rivals, the Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger, to claim the top sales spot in January 2017. Despite all three muscle cars starting the year with sales figures slower than a Sunday driver, the Mustang still managed to rev up its engines and leave the competition eating its dust. Perhaps the Camaro and Challenger were just too busy admiring their own reflections to notice the pony car sprinting ahead!

As these titans of the track roar (or hum) down the strip, viewers are left on the edge of their seats, pondering: who will take the crown in this electrifying duel?
John C from Bloomington, MN, shares his first car adventure with a ’71 Plymouth Satellite Sebring, purchased for $700 from paper route savings and a dad’s loan. Despite its mild 318 engine and a sticky automatic choke, John jazzed it up with aluminum slots, chrome rims, and a leopard-skin interior. A proud “fix-it” ticket for being too jacked up was a badge of honor among friends with their own quirky rides, from a ’68 Mustang GT to a project V8 Vega.
