Speaking of "MANLY".......any of ya'll ever see a Geo w/ a Class III Hitch?

I'VE GOT ONE! CUSTOM 1 OF A KIND.

When money's tight and you still wanna go fishin, take the GEO and still get 30 mpg!

Looks like I will start driving the 4cyl Mazda B2200 to work now.
See if I can save some money on fuel costs.

If it is daily, weekly, or yearly - got to be a FORD ! The only GM I drive is a Grand Marquis.

my theory is, there are those that drive fords to work, and then there are the others that go to the repair shops and bum rides from people with fords.

My daily driver is my 79 CJ-7 Jeep that I bought 29 years ago. Built 401 engine.... my 05 F350 Powerstroke gets better mpg, but who cares.

My Ford is a '72 F250 C/S...I drive a turbo 2.5L Caravan w/272K and climbing on the odo for my daily commuter. If I got a great deal on a good Ford car, I'd drive it as a daily beater; not a loyalty thing, it's a money thing.

2007 Ranger. I only drive Fords. They have never let me or my family down or left us stranded period. The Ranger I have now has been flawless. But hey its a Ford. I kind off expect that.
