dateless waif club

[Buskanaka]

well I dunno, I don't generally go on dates at 12:30 am...

 

[straightedge]

Hmm, dateless guy here. Never had a true date yet, someday I hope. Well, atleast I can do some things with my Ford Ranger to keep my mind busy.

 

[wildthing]

Where oh, oh where is the king of the Morons? I really miss him. His wrist should be on the mends by now!!! Hey starightedge I hope you don't have the 2.4L engine in that Ranger??

 

[joeman1]

I've been wondering the same thing myself (but not about the Ford. I'd rather not acknowledge their existence. ). I meant to email him at work today to see how he was doing, but I got really busy at work myself. I'll try to remember to do that tomorrow.

Hey now nothing wrong with a ford.

Hey now nothing wrong with a ford.

I owned two- A tempo and a Taurus. You'd think I would have learned after the first one. Both of them were phenomenal pieces of garbage. My ex, in one of his moments of infinite wisdom, kicked the grill of the Taurus because he was mad and broke the grill off. Turns out it was made of cheap plastic. I could never have them washed because the paint finish rubbed off. Never mind the transmission problems on the Taurus and the radiator problems in BOTH cars.

Come to think of it, I learned to drive in my dad's '88 Ranger. It had transmission and radiator problems too.

Ford- Found On Roadside Dead.

FORD - Fix Or Repair Daily

This is what ex-boyfriend who use to work on them told me it stood for.

 

[joeman1]

maybe its not the car but the drivers.

 

[Out of the Flames]

Yeahhhhhh NO.

I've never had to replace transmissions or radiators in my Altimas, and I had the first one for 3 years, I think. I had to replace a throttle linkage cable, but that was a freak occurrence.

 

[joeman1]

well its hard to beat nissans reiliablity. I know my friends had over 200 thousand miles before they sold it and it still ran perfectly. those foreign jobs are great

 

[Living4Him03]

My nissan has got around 95 k miles on it and is a 98 and is still workin good

 

[Buskanaka]

i have an 87 ford laser that has done about 470,000 km and it's still going pretty good.

 

[wildthing]

Hey Buskanaka, Ford Laser whats that?? I am a Mustang owner and very happy with it. I also own a Explorer too. Before that I had VW Rabbit a great car till some kid side swipe it. It still ran but was not driveable.

 

[Buskanaka]

its a 4 door hatchback, they obviously dont have em in the US.

No, we don't have them. We have the Ford Focus that comes in a 4 door hatchback, but they're really ugly and no matter how you change it's looks, it's still a Ford and I'm still not touching it with a 10 foot pole.

So, car talk aside,

What's everyone doing this weekend?

 

[joeman1]

Working

 

[Living4Him03]

SLEEP. lol. I have had a BUSY week. Waiting to see if my friend in Iraq emails so I can find out how he's doing...um I guess that's about it!

 

[Grunt]

Mowing, cleaning up the house before my parents get back from vacation, playing video games, maybe starting on a paper, sleeping. Just my typical boring existance.
