Know how I got my star? I said the Ray was effing sexy. Sweet talk is always good.

"500 ft lbs @ 3,600RPMs." That fucker could give you whiplash with every shift.

I still remember the first time I saw a Nailhead engine. "What the....?"

@thomascurt: I've got an '85 F350 crew cab dually (roughly 2.9 tons) with a 250hp 460 and I get about 8mpg, though I have seen as high as 10.

Maybe you need to just show up with a couple thousand bucks in hand. Couldn't hurt right?

With a carburetor built by Hoover. Leave the engine running while you gas it up, you risk getting sucked into the tank.

If the spectators at football or basketball games were at risk of being clobbered at any moment, I might start watching sports.

@Oppo All Day: You have pleased the Car gods by posting this.

I can't but imagine how expensive a fix that would be. Probably not a great deal of people capable or willing to work on it.

You aren't kidding either my friend. I searched Craigslist for Plymouth Horizon and got nothing. I then Searched Dodge Omni (good ol' Chrysler badge-engineering) and found this: [inlandempire.craigslist.org]

Step 6: Buy and hoon more Horizons!

@sr20spitfirehotrod: Yeah, but your story is its own blend of stupid and awesome. Gave me a good laugh!

@z28driver: I agree. You should get out more.

@38thsignal: I second this call out.

@Apocalypsedonkeypunch: The burned hulk of a Dodge Neon!!! Thanks for playing.

Alright, this exact problem happened to my Uncle Steve and his Vic. Pissed him off a good deal though it was the only catastrophic problem he ever had with it. Great cars either way.
