View Full Version : I wasn't meant to own a little red truck

1 - Bought 2002 Ranger August 2002
2 - A couple of months after buying it, Mrs. Wig ran into it with Wig's truck. (The Wigs fixed it :))
3 - December - kid falls asleep at the wheel, takes out most of the right side. Not fixed because I don't want to put it on insurance and he was paying to fix it.
4 - Last night during a horrendous storm, he hydroplanes, lands in a ditch on the left side of the road, air bags deploy (and scare the crap out of him, hehehe :awinky: ), the entire front corner, including the lights and front bumper are destroyed. He's fine, but tempting fate a few times too often, IMHO.

All this in 12 months (not to mention all the warranty work that junky American truck has needed...... :angry: )

I'm hoping the insurance company will total it out. If not, the good thing is that anything under 24 months old, they replace with OEM parts. I've heard the airbags are QUITE expensive to replace.

I think I'm going to buy a horse and use it for transportation. :P

Hope your pugs do better with a horse in the 'hood than my sharpai. When the Amish come by here my dog goes balisitic. One stopped in front of the house yesterday to ask for directions while I was working on the yard, and I thought he was going to have a stroke.

Okay, its the Ranger thats the problem :-)

My dad had a 1987 ranger that he replaced in 1998 with the SAME EXACT TRUCK just a later model. They suck (though, the newer one was a lot easier to shift with than the 87 model)

What amazes me is the amount of damage that was done by hitting DIRT! :o

And when Mrs. Wig hit it, $2K damage and not a scratch on Wig's truck.

POS. :angry:

I'll do a Vick....

Here we go

Piece of shit car
I got a piece of shit car
That fuckin' pile of shit
Never gets me very far

My car's a big piece of shit
'Cause the shocks are fucking shot
And my seatbelt's fucking broken
I got to tie it in a knot
(It's a piece of shit)

I can't see through the windshield
'Cause it's got a big fucking' crack
And the interior smells real bad
'Cause my friend puked in the back
(It's a piece of shit)

(Piece of shit car)
Piece of shit car
(He's got a piece of shit car)
It sucks royal dick
(That fuckin' pile of shit)
100% crap
(Never gets him very far)
Oh fuck you car

It's got no CD player, it only got the 8-track
Whoever designed my car can lick my sweaty nut sack
(They can bite his ass too)
And I got no fuckin' brakes
I'm always way out of control
Eleven times a day I hear "Hey, watch it asshole"
(You fuckin' piece of shit)

(Piece of shit car)
I got piece of shit car
(He got a piece of shit car)
Diesel gas sucks my ass
(That fuckin' pile of shit)
That pile of metal shit
(Never gets him very far)

Oh what the fuck did I do
What the fuck did I do
What the fuck did I do
To get stuck with you
You're too wide for drive-thru
And you smell like the shoe
But I'm too broke to buy something new
Oh fuck me

Well the engine likes to flood
The car always fuckin' stalls
And the seat cushion's got a big rip
So a spring always pokes the balls
(Ouch, ouch, ouch)
Plus the door locks are busted
I gotta use a fucking coat hanger
(What a pain in his ass)
And if a girlie sees my car
There's no chance I'll ever bang her
(He never ever gets da pussy)
Hey shut up
(Piece of shit car)
You piece of shit car

(You got a piece of shit car)
You piece of shit car
(Piece of shit car)
Bald fuckin' tires
(You got a piece of shit car)
No rearview fucking mirror
(Piece of shit car)
Seven different colors
(You got a piece of shit car)
Fucking rag for a gas cap
(Piece of shit car)
Tailpipe makes the sparks fly everywhere
(You got a piece of shit car)
(Piece of shit car)
(You got a piece of shit car)
(Piece of shit car)
Oh the whole town thinks I'm a loser
(You got a piece of shit car)
Cabby give me a push
(Piece of shit car...)

Still trying to get Mrs. Wig to learn to use her mirrors. :unsure:

Either Gonzo or myself can hook you up with a Hummer salesman who is really eager to sell.

Get the H1 and you might stand at least a fighting chance against Wig's truck.

The warranty has covered a radio, door ajar switch, cigarette lighter, and I think the fuel guage is messed up because the bar ranges from 1/2 to empty (depending on the trucks mood :P ) once the tank becomes half empty.

Whats your number? I got a guy that will sell you a Hummer.
Buy one from him and we get the test drive for a week!

And I promise we will bring a Hummer full of nekkid ass for a vacation to your mommas house!

Now Peaches Honey don't jinx me with this whole truck thing, I just got mine in July and never owned a truck before, and this is all new for me :-)

So far?

I love it!

Uh, you might want to check his bank balance before you suggest he buys ANYTHING! :zoinks:

Right now it's going to take him quite a while just to come up with the $1000 for the deductible on this wreck. :(
