[QUOTE="Forgalspop, post: 4127720, member: 46636"] How about the worst car you ever owned. For myself, it was a 1973 Ford Capri. I purchased this new at 17 years of age and the local bank wrote the note without a co-signer. This car was junk after 34,000 miles. I could not keep the points from burning up or the plug wires from going bad. On a rainy night you could see the glow of spark along the plug wires. I replaced them multiple times. Of course, being a teenager I drove the car hard. It was a pretty thing when it was new. Even now, on a rare occasion I will have dreams about that car. I traded the Ford Capri for a 1975 Ford 1/2 ton pickup that was not much better than the Capri. I swore I would never purchase a new car or a Ford ever again and didn't purchase a new vehicle for next 25 years. I am still not a Ford fan and have owned a few since then. Flame away![ATTACH type="full"]415339[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
