Default Buy American! OT

Wife bought me a new, screaming yellow, 5 speed manual, Mustang GT for
Christmas! Well, actually I'll be making the payments, and I picked it
out. But, she said OK, and that's as good as buying it.

Great car, fast, fun, and furious. Can't wait to drive it up to the
boat to go fishing.

My condolences. I do have to admit, I like the restyling of this year's
'stang, but I sure wouldn't want to have to own one.

Why not? All I've read has been praiseworthy, and I've got to admit
it's a blast to drive. Comfortable too.

The NY State Police are in love with them, and they have to spend all day in
their cars.

I'm glad to hear they're buying American also!

Chrysler has some issues, too. Or, perhaps I should call them "policies". A
couple of years back, I test drove an Intrepid. I hit a little bump and a
piece of the lower dashboard fell off. I mentioned this to the salesman upon
my return. He said they probably hadn't finished the prep work on the car.
Prep work involves assembling the dash? On closer inspection, they'd
tightened the screws so hard that the speed clips crushed the fiberglass
studs to which they were attached.

Hi Doug: Did you forget that Chrysler is now not an American Car? I do
believe that it is now a German Car.

My last two Fords, a '94 and a '98 Explorer, each gave me less trouble than
the '89 Honda that preceded them.

We've gotta stop sending the jobs overseas -- I say, "Buy American."
