As a kid, before I could even spell “Ford” or develop any association with the brand, all I knew was that my dad’s prized possession back then, was his bright orange Mustang.
Not too practical for a young family, but ideal for a young sailor, that car stood much more than my dad even imaged back then. You see, after he sold this impeccably maintained sports car, he eventually traded up for a much family-friendlier car, a 1981 Ford Econoline conversion van (the 80s was the decade of excess afterall) and thus, began our family’s loyalty to Ford.
So, what does my family’s quick car history do with Ford? And better yet, what does all of THIS have to do with NKT?
Quite a lot, actually.
