MY RIDE- Michael McGurk: 2005 Ford Mustang

It's hard to miss the shiny fire-engine-red Ford Mustang Michael McGurk tools around town in. And the color was a big part of the car's appeal when he purchased it after retiring from his job of 3o years. The other appeal? Simple. "It's a Mustang," says McGurk. "It was just the idea of driving one."

While some Mustangs have V-8 engines, McGurk-- now an artist-- chose the slower, though slightly more fuel efficient, V-6. 

"I don't really want to go fast," he says.

He may be the only Mustang driver in the world who says that!
