    These come up for sale quite often, and if you're be patient and wait for a good one like Jenn did, you'll be rewarded with a great daily driver.

    These are among the most reasonably-priced wagons out there, and most of them come fairly well-equipped.

    So i just got back from the preinspection, before we can get her inspected these need to be repaired...

    the oil pan is leaking
    a fitting on the gas line is leaking
    the fuel filter is leaking
    there is a small hole in the floor and in both rear wheel wells
    and the tires need to be replaced.


    Not so bad:oops:

    Not bad problems at all for such a nice looking wagon. While you are home blowing your nose start fixing those little things. It' take your mind off your aches and pains. Just remember, no cigars or pipe smoking until the fuel leaks are fixed.

    In the early part of the last decade (the "aughts"???), Ford brought out the Focus. There were several trim levels, including the EX and the SE. I've seen a couple of the older ones around that have the SE and EX emblems merged to say...what else?...SEX.

    There is a local Smart car driver that has taken a couple of Smart emblems and morphed them into "ASS", so it's SMART on top, and ASS under that.

    Back in the late '70s, my bro Jeff had a '69 Dodge Dart 4-door, real POS grade crap on 4 wheels. He swore by this car and went so far as to remove and compress the letters so it said "Dog Fart." So it was the Dog Fart.

    Yes they can...all my brothers and myself go out of our way to be weird (no comments from the Peanut Gallery, Cat!) and make everybody laugh. I noticed the car has those infernal wheel covers that need the 'special' tool to unscrew the center nut; do you plan on putting different wheels on it?:dancing:
