Well, I put new motor mounts on my ‘06 Focus last fall, but it really hasn’t helped that much. It still buzzes like an angry bee. But, I need to replace the front sway bar links, again, and front rotors, again. And the struts and shocks. Maybe the “lifetime” air filter as well. And the exhaust system. That really…

You know, no matter how many of these witty comments you write, you’re not going to get COTD anymore. The editors on to you and your endless brown nosing for $kay’s babe of the day. /s

Uh, Mira was born in 1967. Not saying she is old, I was born in ‘68, but the girl in the pic looks maybe mid-20's?

No, no, no. You have the right name, and the right color, but selected the wrong year and body style. What you really want is a early 1970's Marauder. A big, beautiful two door pillar-less coupe. This way, no one mistakes you for an AARP member trying to get to the Golden Coral for their early bird special.

That is a bad acronym, and you should feel bad about writing it.

Sooo, my iPhone 4s is what, some kind of door stop or something? It’s still chugging along, doing what I ask of it, everyday.

As always, it depends on where you live. In the US of A, it varies by state.

Beat me to the Kelly’s Heroes reference by two minutes!

Someone should make a movie about this. I can see it now. Desperate soldiers, in the middle of a war, smuggling gold bars out of a bank, in the belly of a tank. I’m going to start writing the screen play right now. It’ll be new, exciting concept, never done before in Hollywood! I wonder why it’s never been done…

Will this work? It’s a Porsche & a truck. 

Every real estate appraiser working today takes photos “in traffic”. But, what we photograph are stationary and on residential streets, typically. Every once in a while I have to snap a pic of a house on a busy street, but I try to pull off the street and out of the way of semi-trucks barreling down the road.

Now, with celebratory gunfire!

I’m 6'4" tall, about 220 pounds and closing in on 50 years old. I have a wife and two teenagers, one of which is 6' tall and growing fast. I drive a 2006 Focus 2-door hatchback because it fits my needs very well. My wife has a Chrysler T & C which is very useful for those long trips to the grandparents and grocery…

Well, I was going to have a few drinks tonight,

And, cross posted to Jezebel. Have fun getting all kinds of hell for the rest of the day. ;)

Fuck, my car has 153,000 miles on it.

Uh, yeah. That’s my car.

Ford must have copied that for the 2.0 liter engine in my Focus. The thermostat is buried under several hoses and wires, and requires either removing said components, or having an absurdly long ratchet extension to remove the bolts that hold it to the mounting points.
