Touche. I don’t remember very many asspires around though. Used to see Contours and Mistakes like crazy. I remember the dashes would all peel up eventually and you’d have to pin it back down with drywall screws so you could see out the windshield.

Yes. There’s just SO many alternatives that can be picked up for 3 grand that are a safer bet.

Exactly. The only thing the car has going for it is that it’s the rare and special (sigh...I suppose) SVT. Why go and mess with it?

Agree. The Ford Contour is the crappiest car Ford has ever produced in my lifetime. While the SVT had cult following, it’s only because those people were trying so hard to make their not-special car seem special. Nobody else cares. And this one is not some stock well-kept creampuff. It is in fact a basket-case. This…

You can’t compare an old miled-up Accord to an old Ford. They’ll never be comparable in market value.

I don’t like that....thing.

Having a company accept the return of an entire vehicle is relatively rare

Friends, like most shows up until the 2000s, was filmed in front of a live studio audience.

And in other news...

Well good morning!

And Pontiac did it even better

I would drive anything on this list but the Hummer, and only because that is a physical impossibility.

And 30 mpg.

At the dealership where I work, we do 1000 oil changes per month. Last month, we lost a motor due to a screw up. Now 999/1000 oil changes went perfectly, so that’s 99.9% accuracy. It’s actually higher than that on average because we don’t usually lose a motor every month. But it still sucks to be that one person. (BTW…

Ya I was in the same boat. But I’m going to go with “Eh, where ya gonna find another one?” NP

I bet all those people standing out on the Today plaza were screaming your name, too.

That movie is completely forgettable. Literally. I loved the first one, and when the second one came available for streaming, I’m like “ya, I’ve GOT to see that!” My wife informed me that I had already saw it. I didn’t believe her, but sure enough half way through it looked familiar. Even after watching it twice…

This song is forever linked to Anchorman 2 in my mind. I hate that.

Yep. Anything under 2k was my number. These cheap ones are a tough call though, because they’re usually still in the ballpark. Asking 3500 you could maybe talk him down closer to 2000.

I was taught when I was running a service department that if you perform a repair for free, outside of the stated warranty period, you automatically create a new warranty unless you specifically indicate with a goodwill repair form that it's a one time deal. It honestly all sounds like standard wording to me straight…
