Top Ten Reasons

This is cool, I found it a while ago and thought I would pass it on.

Top 10 Reasons why Chevy's are "Like a Rock"

10 They are impossible to get into.
9 They are tough to see out of.
8 They handle like crap.
7 They look butt-ugly.
6 You wouldn't want one in your yard.
5 The paint job just never seems polished.
4 The seats are damn hard.
3 You have dreams about running over it with a Ford
2 Reminds you of the Flintstone's car.
1 They don't move.

I'm sorry, I have to say this. In the 4 years since I have owned this truck, My brothers Chxxx trucks have all broken down. Reason, They all end up blowing up. Be it form Loss of oil (some chevys are notorious for that), or from him trying to drive it like its a Ford (like they say "the Best Never Rest!"

I have also owned a 1966 Mustang coupe. I had that car for 7 years, and was only left once. And that was only due to a condensor under the Distributor cap that had gone bad. So, Chevy's are like rocks, they are always gathering moss!



1988 F-150 Custom to XLT Lariat conversion, 5.0 EFI (formerly 300 I6), 5-speed M5OD, 3.08 rear gears (will be upgraded to 3.55's), Summit headers, Flowmaster muffler W/ dual 3.5" tips 24" long.

Pioneer CD, AC, Tilt, Cruise, Mobile Radio, Lightbar (Force 4 LP6000), Federal Signal PA300 Siren W/100W Siren Speaker. Caution Customizing in progress, Watch for flying tools & Parts!

Ya'll ever notice how you hardly ever see a ch*** smoking? A couple of my old (69 and 75) smoke some from to many miles. 69's got about 200K on it and the 75 F-250 had 250K(bought it from the original owner, so I know)and have used it to tow an ungodly # of ch***s and yes it smokes but still runs. Ch***s dont run long enough to start smoking.
