    Maybe this should be considered as “Thunderbird Appreciation Day”. Just a thought.

    Hope all is well with you and Barb.

        I always thought that a date that was specifically related to the history of the TBird would be a better choice i.e. today. Or the official announcement day - October 22. Or the "official"day that the last one was built - July 1 (2005). I think the May day was selected as it was near the kick-off of the car show/cruise night season.

        Hope all is well with you and Diane too.

            Today is an important day but too close to the busy Labor Day weekend in most years.

              I think the Thunderbird is definitely in Ford's rear view mirror and it's fading fast.
