[QUOTE="wornoutupser, post: 3890984, member: 2196"] 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! [/QUOTE]
