Real funny “lemon” graphic Ma!
LOL
Hope you didn’t work too hard today.
It rained here most of the day and only got up to 63 degrees, which was a lovely change! :)

I never owned one, but the car was infamous for tipping in tight turns.

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE
 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

Don’t forget the Alfa Romeo Alfasud. The cars were made from recycled Soviet steel in order to cut costs. Within months the doorsills and weld seams started to rust badly.

Didn’t like to dump on you, but I have a problem with threads that are graphic top-heavy...

Have a good day...

2001 Dodge Stratus with the V6 engine that siezes after 60,000 miles leaving me without a car and $7,000 left to pay on it.
**********************************************************
AH YES! Chryslers famous computer designed V6 where they forgot to leave room between the oil pump pickup and the oil pan... any sludge or the slightest bump to the pan and your engine siezed up... brilliant.

I have never owned a really bad vehicle but the worst was probably my 86 Ford F250. Carburetor, Clutch, fuel pump, water pump, and the front suspension was totally worn out by 100,000 miles. Probably a few more minor problems. I actually really liked the Pickup and the engine a 460 C.I. was still running fine at 200,000 miles.

Now my Nephew had a Ford Fairmont, I think maybe a 76 model, that I think every single thing on it tore up at one time or another, tho oddly enough the engine itself never gave any trouble.

The best car I have ever owned is on the list. Jag X-type. The problem has nothing to do with Jaguar, but rather the magazines that try to compare it, not to others in its class, but to cars costing 3 times as much.
***************************************************
The X type is nothing but a FORD CONTOUR ,, save yourself $30,000 and buy the ford labeled version.

I had a Ford something or other in the 1980s. It was a used car, and it showed. We were planning on taking it on a trip to Disneyworld, and it died on us the day before we were supposed to leave. It blew black smoke and would barely drive. Hated that car.
