Ford, built for the prairies!
where you never have to constantly deal with the humiliation of people laughing at you when they pass you while your vehicle appears to be going backward down the hill as your “pedal to the metal” attempt results in an embarrassing and inevitable constant decline in speed while you pray that it will finally and hopefully make it to the top of the hill :D

To remain consistent with the internet blogger culture I can’t resist doing the silly bio crap thing you see at the end of every blog online especially when it’s the bloggers actual website.

Another Ford benefit for rural areas: use the Ford as a decoy in case rats ever decide to start chewing wires.

Haha! Good one but Totally wrong and out in left field on that one Daniel seems that rodents also prefer newer vehicles as much if not more than humans do 🚗

Automakers including Toyota, Honda and Subaru have turned to an eco-friendly, soy-based type of insulation coating in their vehicles that has attracted the attention and tastes of rodents such as rats, mice and squirrels. The rodents have been chewing the apparently delicious insulation and exposing the bare wires, resulting in expensive repairs for the vehicle’s owners.

Loving my 🦖 (as David so called my collectors item) more and more now :D
i found out about that when I was planning on buying a house in rural Manitoba with an old double garage and was looking for ways to deter squirrels and mice from moving into my 🏠 and 🚗
I thought they just liked to make nests till I read about the “soy”ry truth.
