Went to this car show at the Autobahn Country Club in Joliet Illinois. This show was the 14th annual Chicago Vintage Mustang Club show and I felt like I was entering enemy territory. I was the only Mustang Mach E there and for the most part, the other participants ignored me and my car. At least nobody said anything negative to me about the car even though I'm sure many were thinking that. I did have a few members come up to me with questions and some complimented me on the color of the car and its appearance in general.

What really got me angry is when it came time to judge the cars the team of judges did NOT even look at my car. I'm not a sore loser and am not in the shows just to win but this was inexcusable to me. After I saw that happen I packed up and went home just because I don't think they were being fair. This will be my last car show this year.

I hear ya but I was at a Vintage Mustang Car Show. I think they could have been bigger than that when it came time to judge though. And I did tell the few people I talked with that our cars are the future for auto makers and consumers.
