    Bent My Mustang In Half; Suing Ford

    04-20-2012 02:35 PM #1
    I bought a new Mustang 3 months ago and have since been jumping it over every urban hill I can find... Last night, the car bent in half. My local STEALership denied warranty and sited "obvious abuse and misuse". I'm suing their asses! How can Ford put out advertising like this and not expect us real enthusiasts to duplicate it? If the car can't handle it, this is false advertisement.

    are you sure the driveshaft didn't just break in half and come through the floor?

    You would never buy a mustang.

    You would never jump it if you did.

    The transmission didn't break before the car got rolling?

    Didn't you know the frame was supposed to bend to keep you safe? This way you didn't get stranded in a city like San Francisco

    My old lady danced all over the hood of a Fiat 500 at the dealership, causing major damage with her spiked high heels.

    They all tried to make me not leave after that, but I tolds them, nah brah, J-lo dances all over the car in the commercial and there aint no damage.

    I feel ya brah.

    She is roughly J-Lo sized. 5-2' Portugese/white mix.

    Look, either you can dance on the car or not, there is no gray area here.
