Nice car. But one yahoo in a 76 Ford pickup could reduce it to twisted tin foil at an intersection. Kind of silly to pay that much for a car.

This has got to be in the running for understatement of the millenium.

The prices of ALL new cars are ridiculous! I remember in the 70's, I was in a class at GTE being held by a lady who's Dad was in the military, she said that her Dad told her in 20 years prices of cars would be as much as the price of a house was than.

None of us beleived her, I happened to write that in a note to myself, guess what? The prices are what the cost of a new home was than. I often wonder how her Dad found that out being a Major in the military.

<< .... one yahoo in a 76 Ford pickup >>

That'd be me.

My '76 F-250 and its double-blown 400 cu inch with the works and a tranny to match'll pass everything in America but a gas station!

That is the rig that nearly totaled my sons custom 2001 Ford pickup. He was sitting in the left turn lane waiting for traffic to clear when this junker FPU hit him Head On. $12,000 damage and the dip stick had no insurance. But you knew that I'm sure...

"shriek-inducing $559,500...." "Kind of silly to pay that much for a car..."


Yeah, but $559,500 is so much better than $560,000...isn't it? :)
