Stay the hell out of the left lane unless passing. Insano speeds.

My 20 year old Dakota is completely rustfree. (WASHINGTON)
The Fords have the oil drains and filters located right over the front axle. Somebody should have been fired for that.
It was replaced by the 6.2 in the Super Duty and old Raptor model.The V10 is supposedly out of production for light duty. Got replaced by some 6.4L V8.
Passed by at 85 like sitting still.
That's not even really that fast.Apparently Jake has gotten his up to 200km/hr on the autobahn...
I am thankful for the favorable low rust conditions. I can't afford to replace it.
Go skiing just outside of town at Hurricane Ridge .Yeah, new trucks are crazy expensive now.
I hear it’s really nice out there. A friend of mine lived in port Angeles for awhile. Told me it was all of the best parts of New England without the snow in the winter and humidity in the summer.
It's funny how you think 260 kmh is some sort of absurd speed.That's not even really that fast.
Was shotgun in a crazy Audi on the autobahn. got up to about 260kmh, then someone pulled into the far left lane, so far ahead that I could barely see them do it. Driver braked harrrrdd and we still almost rear ended them.
Also, hung out with some motorcycle psychos that have chains running from their handlebars to around their necks, so if they crash they die instantly.

You're just grumpy cuz you couldn't handle carrying boxes for a livingIt's funny how you think 260 kmh is some sort of absurd speed.
This is a typical day in the left lane. Of course, you're American, where morons go 80 mph (converted for you low brows) in the left lane and think you're flying.
You'd be arrested for obstructing traffic here. And rightly so.

Slower is better. More reaction time, less stopping distance, better fuel economy, etc.It's funny how you think 260 kmh is some sort of absurd speed.

That’s a little faster than my idiot friend drove his eclipse on American highways.That's not even really that fast.

But he makes $190,000 a year and has a secretary!
Did not realize 007 was among us.Yup, he also was some sort of contractor for the USMC in another thread where he claimed to be paid over 100k a year with access to a private plane and could pick his missions. So of course he comes to UPS and pushes cardboard at 10 bucks a hour for a little while and then one day remembers....
OMG... I forgot I have this fancy degree.. I can get a job that starts at 190k a year with full benefits and have a 19 year old girl get me coffee.
So now he is gone...
Ford really means "Found Off Road in Ditch?"I hope that the new Fords are better than the old ones.
I am old and I admit it. I grew up in the old Ford P 500 and P 800's. They were some of the worst death traps that we had.
I had wheels break off on the highway, rear ends lock up on the highway and the last P500 we crushed was even worse.
This car was horrible. For two years it was repeatedly written up for driving itself off of the road. You would drive down the road and at any speed it would pull itself 10-15 feet in either direction.
Please remember that my building gets all of the problem vehicles from other buildings.
I had an OJS with a supervisor from another center while driving this car. It only took about an hour to throw me off the road. I was told to pull over and took a horrible tail reaming for careless driving.
Later, the supervisor was driving for demonstration. Sure enough, we ended up off the road in a short time.
You would not believe the lecture that happened after he recovered. I was told that it is because of drivers like me that my center gets crap cars like this ( are they trying to kill us?)
This car ended up with a Saturday driver that rolled it on a straight stretch of highway. She was severely injured. This car was written up for the last three days as " unsafe to drive, take out of service". Mysteriously, the DVIR disappeared the first night of the accident.
This is why I hope that the new Ford's are better!
But no Limo and Chauffer?But he makes $190,000 a year and has a secretary!
