IBTG81 Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 We've had several Fords, we also currently own a Lexus RX330 and a Sable. The Fords for the most part have been great, but every once in a while we will get a japanese car for variety, different type of ride. I just couldn't stand the looks I got from the knob-bobbers when I took the test drive in the Fit. That, and the multiple attachment "drivers comfort attachment" that the guy was offering, what the hell was that anyway? looked like a cucumber on steroids and he wanted to put it right there in the drivers seat! Anyway, if I decide to drive up for the opener, the truck will be going with me, Ed, if you bring the Fit, park in front of me, it's you natural position anyway. Although, depending on the drivers comfort attachment" selecyed, you may never leave the car. 723693[/snapback] Several? My Fit will last 10 years.

Chef Jim Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Several? My Fit will last 10 years. 723705[/snapback] Well yes, everyone knows that is the life expectancy of it's source of locomotion...gerbils. And if you get tired of your Fit you can always use the gerbils for that extracurricular activity favored by most Fit owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cromagnum Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 94 G-20 chevy van with a 350. 5 days a week it's loaded with 1000lb's or more of construction materials, along with the 500 lb's of tools. Travelled to jobs all over new england and as far south as miami and drove up new gap mountain pass at 4000 ft elevation in tenn/nc. The motor still growls and will smoke the tires right off the rim. Repairs,starter,alternator,brake caliper. I did ding the front bumper after some toyota made a uturn right in front me, smash. I helped the driver of the toyota pick up the pieces of his car and exchanged insurance info.. I then drove off on my way to a relaxing afternoon of sufcasting for stripers, caught a couple of fish, no trophies. But I was real proud of how my chevy disentergrated that toyota and only dinged my front bumber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBTG81 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 any of you have drive one of these cars.... cars 723750[/snapback] Seems to me all of the gay website stuff everyone is posting has no mention of the Fit. Interesting. Of course, that won't stop Valtrex Boy, Gimpo, and Larry the Cable Guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I'm surprised you don't drive a cheaper vehicle. Afterall, Valtrex isn't the cheapest medication out there. 723667[/snapback] Oh, my god, Ed. That was borderline original. Do you get your jokes from mommy and daddy, too?!?! Or just room and board?

Who suddenly pissed in his Wheaties, and why is he blaming me? Maybe he's just another Fit buyer distressed at finding out he bought a gay car - er, automobile of alternative sexual lifestyle...wouldn't want to sound homophobic now, would I?

Alaska Darin Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 Who cares what the leading publications say. It only matters what Darin says! A little egotistical? 723669[/snapback] Oh, so now we're trusting the media? I must have missed the memo. You'll forgive me for being skeptical. I've owned 4 American cars that I've bought new. None of them had any mechanical issues and I've owned each at least 7 years. I've only had two foriegn cars and the only problems I've had were either with the Xterra (burned out window motor and real tailgate paint). The paint thing is a known defect with the model that the brilliant Japanese have never been able to remedy. The window motor could have been due to Alaskan weather.
