I posted a commint also on the page. I to am an officer that has seen many accident that have bad outcomes. I drive an X and love it. My family is safe inside of it. You should have told the lady to buy an american car and keep americans at work.

People need to worry about themselves more and not so much about what the other guy is doing or driving.
Untill you have walked a mile in my shoes don't judge me!
My truck helps pay my bills and that is something that a little car can't help me with.

No real reason for anyone (the lady at the gas station or any of us) to criticize someone else's choice of vehicle, or for that matter to get defensive if someone criticizes us. America is about freedom of choice.

Billy Hell's comment is great. It shows that some Ex drivers are helping to push the envelope in fuel sourcing strategy, which I think will help us get away from the status quo: sending bales of cash to the arabs.

Ahh, OK! It's real strange, but the vast majority of Excursions I see around here always seem to be headed across Free Bridge headed 250 eastbound.

Somebody has recently shown up around here with an Excursion exactly like mine, with Fraternal Order of Police license plates on it. It even rode by my house a few weeks ago, but I did not recognize the driver.

What color is your Excursion?

I think I might have seen your Excursion, but I don't recall the antenna.

I have always liked that color. I had a 2000 Crown Victoria in the Toreador Red color. I hated the car because it had the civilian bench seats in it. It was like sitting in a broken down Lazy Boy recliner. I got rid of it and bought a new Crown Victoria Police Interceptor with bucket seats in 2001. They are much firmer and more comfortable.

If I see you around anywhere I will stop and shout at you! We can go get a cheeseburger and beer at Riverside
and discuss all the single women you might know that would like to run around with a married man.

While I was opposed to the change at first, the new Riverside is a pretty nice place. No more standing to eat, and no more elbow to elbow bumping the entire time you're instead the new location. The only problem with their new location is where to park something as big as an Excursion. You and I would have to take up 3 parking spaces with 2 Excursions. The food is still good, the beer is still ice cold. And a relative of mine recently bought the business from Buster! He also got rid of some of the employees who felt like they were doing you a favor to wait on customers.

Not a van, I think they were all together in one "Accord".

The reply dated 10-14-08 in the link below calls 95% of you all sorts of fancy words.

I never knew all of you were so short either. I've been hanging around with a bunch of midgets here!
