The biggest piece of crap that ever rolled down the highway, if it does roll it all, it sure doesn't start and run, because it's a Ford, and that stands for freaking overheats rolling downhill!

I had a 1977 Ford Mustang II (302 notchback) in high school. It was squirlly...not much weight in the back. Driving it in Michigan winters was a bitch. Ended up crashing it on icy roads. Even with it's anemic v8, it still had good a amount of torque and low weight to make it somewhat fun.

A friend bought one of these off of the showroom floor at a podunk little ford dealership and struggled to keep the poor thing running so we could take it out partying on the weekends. Just about everything that could go wrong with it did. That lasted about 3 years until he parked it alongside the garage, where it sat until it went to the junkyard in the summer of 98. We were actually laughing about what a pile of shit it was the other day. Phone must have been listening.
