Maybe loyalty to chevy, but mostly due to the fact that i've always loved the corvette

( ferdinand Porsche's son designed the car by the same name, for those who didn't know )
For more information on the VW beetles history, find a copy of "small wonder" in yoru local library...it's a very interesting read. |

I swear the buicks are talking to eachother and conspiring against Me. Its Fall heading into winter, and what part on my wifes car breaks? The Clutch on the A/C compressor. You want to talk about a pain in the behind to get to? To top it off that corner of the donor car is pushed back towards the compressor making it even harder to get at the bolts.

I like my new tires. I was going up a steep hill on my way to my grandparents house to drop off some stuff (Cinder blocks, bags of sand, couple ramps and dollys). The hill is covered in that slick fancy brick and the sprinkler system on the side of the road was running, so the water was washing down the hill. Not once did the tires squeek or slip trying to grab onto the slick surface of the bricks. Somthing that my old tires would strain to grab ahold of

lol, well if it means anything I put the jeep through a lot more of a workout than bricks and other heavy objects!
We were moving Pine Tree needles we raked up from a forestation nearby! Those things weigh like ten tons each needle! Tires were almost flat and it was a lowrider truck without the money spent!

Dear Ford:
Never ever make another Mustang in yellow with no accents. They look terrible. |
