The "future" meets a relic of the Gilded age...in person.

Well that proves that they better not ever try robotic baby carriages.

My son drove a Jeep Patriot and carelessly ran over a parking lot barrier. Broke the rear anti sway bar.
5H1T! ... my kid is out there driving a Jeep baby that can't jump a bump without dying?
Yes, he was driving too fast and probably hit at an angle, but IT'S JUST A BUMP!

It probably has to do with lightening vehicles for fuel economy or a cheaper production process. I had a 1977 F100 we used to take crossways through empty grocrey parking lots back when they had the parking blocks in every row. When I bought a new 1984 F150 my first curb hop bent the axle. The difference is that the '77 had forged radius rods, where the '84 had stamped radius rods and it gave.

I knew a guy that bought a new Ford Ranger years ago. He tried jumping hills and acting like they used to show on t.v. advertisements. That truck was totaled in 6 months. Yeah, not the sharpest pencil in the pack.

My friend back in our teen years had an old beater Ford pickup and he needed a new bed, so got one from the boneyard, stopped by my house one day and was in the street talking, then as he took off, he yelled "Ford Power" and floored it. The boneyard bed slid out and slammed down on the street.

We really need a thread for car stories like this.
