Fords are much better
Henry Ford dies and goes to Heaven.
At the gate, St Peter tells Henry Ford: "Well, you've been such a good guy, invented the car, changed the world. As a reward you can hang out with anybody in Heaven of your choice."
So Henry Ford thinks about it and says: "I would like to hang out with God himself?"
So St Peter takes him directly to God's thrown and Henry Ford starts by saying: "God, I don't want to sound biased, but you have some major design flaws in Your invention, the Woman.
1. There's too much front end protrusion
2. It chatters at high speeds
3. The rear end wobbles too much
4. The intake is too close to the exhaust."
"MMMMM" says God and goes over to the Celestial Super Computer, types in a few key strokes, and waits for the results.
He then turns to Henry Ford and says; "It may be that My invention is flawed, but according to the stellar computer more men are riding My invention then your's". | |

| How much does your vehicl to work so i bought for d due roa time on the lot of andpee say about you?
Posted: 4/11/2008 6:54:32 PM | Reading the paper, I see so many near new cars for sale that are 3 years old for 1/3 the price they once were. Ok some may have 80,000 k on the clock but they were serviced under new car warranty so just offloaded for a trade up.
I had a Jeep Wrangler for a company car (worked with a property holiday firm who rented cars) and my fave was the Suzuki Siera as I could drive a week on a tank and when the day I returned it, I put in $2.00 of fuel to get the needle off E. Looking at the cost of fuel now, the Patrol was great but got only 4.5 kms / litre but with dual tanks would cost me $280 to fill. The Mercedes was a nice car but unexpected when a friend defaulted on a loan and after spending over $2k on a service had me ready to use it for the time being but sell it when I had rego coming up in 3 months.
Either way, I prefer to see something for my money rather than something losing money in the garage or driveway. | |

. . . At the gate, St Peter tells Henry Ford: "Well, you've been such a good guy, invented the car, changed the world . . .
Contrary to popular belief, a German engineer called Karl Benz (Mercedes) invented and patented 1879 the first gasoline-powered automobile.
The company today is called Daimler-Benz (was Daimler-Chrysler).
Henry Ford invented mass-production for automobiles (T-Model Ford). | |

Posted: 4/14/2008 2:13:03 AM | | Getting from A to B is a dream of mine with my car. I'm lucky if it moves a few metres without something going wrong :) I am my mechanic's best customer. Without me as a customer, he would be eating lots-a-noodles every night :) Here's my tip to anyone who's in the market for a new/used car: avoid Ford Falcons like the plague! I've learned that the hard way. Even my previous Mazda 626 was better than my current car. | |

A billion lite years ago in another galaxy and when I lived a another life, I was the proud ower of 1978 Lotus Europa . .
Oh Pookie . . always knew you were a woman of good taste.
I trust you kept the chassis plate. You can rebuild the whole car from that. 
I have a '69 Lotus Europa and also an Excel, so that's my obsession. | |

Posted: 4/19/2008 4:13:12 AM | I am fortunate enough to live in a small surfing village...so bare foot and walking...is way sexier than any car...hairy wilderness boy done up in sarong or loin cloth, all bare footed and walking ...mmmm...[SillyGirlyGrin]... a much sweeter ride than a V8, no?...
If I had to BE a car...metaphorically?..I'd be a limited edition 65 model Kombi...all slow and dak dak like... silly grin on my face just bopping down the road...nice and easy in the left hand lane, with the grandma's and hat drivers...too easy. | |

Posted: 4/19/2008 4:43:40 AM | 1. Comfort: I went from a clapped out old 6 cyl Cortina to a second hand dunny-door and finally bought a new car, a Mazda 6. It's nice to drive, well mannered but a bit tame.
2. Performance: I had dirt bikes since I was a kid and progressed to a road bike when I got the daredevil outta me.. now it's a Honda VFR with a nice note to quicken the pulse.
3. Grunge: We had a clapped out landrover on the farm when I was a kid, now it's an oldish Hilux 4x4 as a farm ute and for the occasional trip into the wilderness when an excuse presents itself.
Does that mean I have three personalities ?? No wonder I'm so confused... | |

they spend all this money on this hot looking car....
and then sit inside it
good point but the guys (in particular) who sit at the lights with their elbow out the window of their flash car want everyone else to be looking at it (and them) admiringly
[quoteAny car - as long as it emphaSIZES the size of my penis.
if you really want to advertise your virility and the appendage that makes you irresistible to women, you'll have to drive a van. a load of children in the back is physical proof that you get female action, that they want your body. just picked up a chrysler town and country. i'd have preferred something japanese, but i love the stow-and-go feature. | |

Posted: 5/4/2008 3:55:48 AM | My vehicle says I lead a very busy life and that I conserve water and I am stupid.
I drive a Black Commodore and work on a very dusty contruction site I keep promising to run it through the car wash but usually run out of time not enough hours in the day at times so therefore I am conserving water when I do wash it within 2 days it is dirty again and at $12 a pop at the car wash it can stay dirty.  I kick myself for been stupid enough to buy a BLACK car they are soooooo hard to keep clean but do look soooo nice when clean. | |

It says I'm aware of the water shortage, or that I'm incredibly lazy .. either way it hasn't been washed in 12 months.
It also says that I don't like vacuming, and that my daughter likes salt and vinegar chips.
Sometimes it says ... call the mechanic I need to be serviced... please please please.
I like my car .. its a Rav 4 and I drive it like a hoon around horse padocks. | |

Posted: 5/4/2008 6:25:43 AM | | My car use to say all sorts of nasty things about me, all malicious lies of course, things like; I'm a miser, I'm never on time, I fart way too much and I sing along to daggy 70's songs while driving. But since I got them photos of it in compromising positions with that cheap topless sports car from up the road it keeps its mouth shut. | |
