Hey Bill O'Leary, do you really drive a Ford? I thought child perv wastoids like yourself were prevented from driving an automobile. How about telling all of these nice folks here about how you had to go around to each house in the new neighborhood you live in and report to each neighbor that you are a pederast? I got my popcorn ready. Go ahead... |

Ford tries for blandest, ugliest vehicle in the World
Flex mileage: EPA rating is 17/24 with FWD and 16/22 with AWD.........I don't know how that compares with mini-vans and other competition.......but it won't have me running down the street to get one. MKS premium fuel: yes, I see it's only 10.3 compression, so the computer should be able to adjust to regular (but my Mustang gets all 300 poinies on regular all the time....I tried all fuel grades and there is no difference). I had one of the older Chrysler 300s with the V6 and the owners manual spelled-out how much hp on various grades of gas.....no difference around town, but always put premium in for the mountains and you could feel the difference. I luv the local tv news.......every time the price of gas goes up, they trot out the same old dialog about how to save: "avoid jack rabbit starts", "buy your gas in the morning when it's denser", etc., etc. And they still give the same advice from 1950 about premium gas: "don't waste money on premium gas - keep buying lower octane gas until your engine starts to ping". Yeah, and take your car in for one of those $79.95 tune-up specials for new points and plugs. timing and carb adjustment! (so why do we believe what they say about anything else?) |

Ford tries for blandest, ugliest vehicle in the World
Haven't cruised our local dealer's lot for a long time, so went thru this morning. Small town, he sells everything Ford-Mercury-Lincoln. Rows and rows of Explorers, Taurus X, MKXs, etc. Quite a large inventory.....surprisingly, only 2 Mustangs....one GT and one Saleen. They have 2 MKSs.....sort of like them and glad they are more distinct than just a Taurus/Sable with a different grill: unique sheet metal, dash, door panels, etc. Stickered around $45,000........I'd consider a low-mileage, off-lease one when my 500 needs replacing. But, I'm sorry, the Flex just looks like a loaf of bread.......and if I'm gonna drive a box something that big, I wanna be higher off the ground! If I'm gonna spend that much, I want a little style. |
