Holyman Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 cuz they patch that crap up and sell it as new. My dad ordered a truck once that was damaged in shipping. They said they'd give him undercoating for the inconvenience. He said forget it and ordered another truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ledofthezep Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 Thats how they came up with the Focus. 312493[/snapback] I had a Focus for a couple days one time when I was getting my Old 4x4 dodge's interior fixed before I bought it. Hit some railroad tracks on an incline at about 80-85 & swear I had to have flown about 10-15' with at least a couple feet of air underneeth. Bottomed out the suspension soo damn hard it must have blown something out in the front ones because everytime you'd hit the brakes after that it'd bounce hardcore like a hoopdy...ah the good times.

stu Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 i used to work in the facory that they make the new mini cars in. even if the car goes down the line totally fucked (and believe there are some bad ones!) it'll just get prepped up once its off the line and sold as new. good 1/3 of the factory employees were "re-workers". thats all they did, bodge the shit ones and get rid stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
