Did the rear wiper activate with the brakes? :)

“This has got to stop.”

I’ve found Ford’s markings to be more prolific than most. My Mazdas have had relatively few parts marked for instance.

Almost all Ford parts are marked as a rule even today. Ford, F, part number, almost always something that says its a ford part. It’s funny that sometimes OEM Ford parts will be sold into the aftermarket with the Ford markings machined off. 

Your cognitive dissonance is showing.

Privileges are at the whim of those granting them. Rights however are the things that get revoked on basis of people proving themselves a danger to others.

So wait a moment here... statists have told libertarian minded people for decades that using a private motorized private conveyance on the public way is a privilege granted by government. As a privilege granted by government the people operating government may attach any conditions they desire to that privilege.…

Another day, another story of a paranoid and/or control freak woman calling in government employees to wield violence on her behalf.

“The Nucleon now only exists in its miniature concept mock-up form inside of the Henry Ford Museum in Michigan.”

Provided the back door wasn’t locked in violation of fire codes, what was it about not going out the back because of the exit alarm? What were they fearing? That the cops would show up? The cops were already there. They both had chances to just run out the back of the store.

Panel beating fixtures have the complete surfaces and were generally made of wood. That would be useless for even checking the panels because it’s just spaced framework. My guess is that is part of the actual car and used to support the body panels which lack any features to give them sufficient rigidity.

the safety and fuel economy regs passed long before Trump make it economically non-viable. You end up with a small truck that can’t offer much in the way of improved fuel economy that costs almost the same as a full size truck. The market for people who will buy a small truck for the sake of doing so is very small.

the cup holders in both my mustangs have never had a cup in them. The older one, an SN95 has the fragile fold out one. After over 21 years it’s perfect. Or it was the last time I folded it out years ago just to see.

“If you had both hands on the wheel you wouldn’t need an armrest.”

When I paid cash for my last car the dealer didn’t even blink at my check. I asked them if a personal check was ok before I picked up the car though. Guess they figured after waiting so long for the car to come in I probably wasn’t scamming them.

“Next time I am showing up with a wad of $100 bills.”

I’ve had people ask me to do a burn out. I asked them if they were going to buy me new tires.

I learned this was certainly true one winter morning. There was a patch of ice and instead of pulling off the road two people who hit each other decided to leave their vehicles in the traffic lane on the ice while they exchanged information. While without the black ice or without these two geniuses parked in the…
