My high school friend had a Ford Pinto.
My uncle “temporarily” had one back in HS. He didnt care. He got laid in it and had more “action” in it than the rest of popular kids in his school.
One valuable thing that was hammered into me..it’s NOT the car.
One of those telemarketers for extended auto warranties kept calling my brother and finally he engaged them and acted all excited and happy, oh they were happy as a clam until they got to the part about getting his car information. When asked he said he had a 1976 Ford Pinto that only has 225,000 miles on it! Then nothing but cussing as they hung up on him...
He once got a scammer trying to get his credit card information and told them his wife had their card but he would give them her number, he would love to win the big prize they were offering. They eagerly listened as he read off her number and said I look forward to hearing from you! In about five minutes they called back and were furious and now it was a three way call going down.
His “wife’s” number was actually the FBI’s number and the scammer was livid, they are on the line for what you did! My brother said but didn’t you forget you are the thief trying to steal my money. Lots of cussing and profanity and then he says to them, does your momma know you are a dirty thief, is she proud of you? More profanity and all the while he is hearing from the FBI line nothing but hysterical laughter. Finally the scammers just hung up.
