Cleaning is not expensive, we have a local cleaner that charges $3 per piece. It is alterations that used to be free have gone through the roof.

I have to make sure my wife doesn't see this. She does mine for free.

When you want to flex the guns, without LOOKING like you're flexing the guns.

I just feel sorry for the kids, having parents who picked stupid names for them. You just know they will burden those kids with ignorant decisions the whole time they're growing up, turning them into idiots as well...

I don't know if there is any correlation or causality here, but the 1977 Ford Pinto Cruising Wagon was part shag wagon, part panel delivery, and part economy car all rolled up into one little rainbow runabout. The mag wheels, rear bubble window and wacky striping made it the funkiest Pinto Ford had ever produced and one of the most unique-looking offerings from any car builder of any era.

By 1977, there were no true muscle cars left on the market, there were a host of cars that tried to look the part, or at least look cool. The Cruising Wagon was an attempt to snag buyers who may have been looking for something that looked sporty and fun to drive, had some room to haul some stuff, and yet was still cheap on gas. If it was meant to help curb the steady retardation in Pinto sales from a high water mark of 544,209 in 1974, it failed, as production totals sagged to just 225,097 in ’77. Of those, only 10,029 were Cruising Wagons. The following year, only 5,329 CWs were built. After 1979, Ford had given up on the idea.

OMG. I had a Renault LeCar that got rear ended less than 6 hours after purchased new. I had to go to Oklahoma City the next day and would be there for 3 months so I took it to a body shop and they loaned me an old big car. I drove out of the place and a block away one of the front wheels fell off. I walked back and the lady asked me where the car was and I pointed out the window.

They only had one car left to loan me and it was that very same Pinto. Took them 3 months to fix my car so I had it the whole time I was there. In a weird way it was kinda cool.

The wagon version was much less likely to burn you to a crisp.
