Clearly someone feels part of the Mustang's history does not belong between the years of '69, and '05. 
In my opinion, the fox era should've been in the middle... right in line in that pic/vid, why have two mustangs from the S197 era representing when one from that generation is sufficient. It's an alright vid, but meh!
I understand looking at the pic they are showing the evolution, but the most important part of the evolution isn't there, the one that is a big part of the stangs history in my opinion, the foxbody. That generation put the stang on the map again in a time when performance was dying! If it wasn't for the foxbody, and the ealy SN95, there would be nothing but dead Ford Probes lying in the back yards, and barns out in the country sides today..... cause that was the route Ford was planning on going!
Sorry for the rant.
