Ford Mustang Reaches its 9-Millionth Unit

The Ford Mustang is an automobile manufactured by the Ford Motor Company. It was first introduced to the public in 1964 at the New York World Fair in 1964. The Mustang is a pillar of American cars which offers sporty styling at an inexpensive price. It has the record of having the most successful sales for an automobile. It sold more than one million units in its first eighteen months.

After four decades of style and technological revisions, the Mustang remains in production until these days. Lately it has reached the 9 million production mark since it has produced its first unit back in 1964.

Thomas Krumm, an Iowan farmer was the lucky person to have purchased the 9-millionth Ford Mustang unit. He unintentionally bought a piece of history after going to his local Ford dealer to order a Mustang GT convertible. He was inspired with Mustangs because of his daughter, Rachel, a Mustang enthusiast who bought her first Mustang at the age of 17 just by saving her school allowances. According to her "Having been a Mustang fanatic my entire life, I couldn't be more excited that my dad is receiving the 9 millionth Mustang,"

Frits Wilke, the mustangs brand manager states that reaching the 9 million mark in 44 years had been a great success and it was due to the support of Mustang owners and enthusiasts. Quoting his words, "So many people have contributed to Mustang's proud 44-year heritage possible – from incredible Mustangs owners and enthusiasts to our partners at AAI where Mustangs are built to Ford's Product Development and Ford Division teams."
