    Not to split hairs but you do realize that isn’t a Columbia, but an M2? o_O

    It's always the turds that you have to drive that create the best stories, it's rarely the nice ones that do. I had a 1978 package car that would shoot out a backfire and flames about three feet every time you let off the gas on the highway, it made driving at night fun lol.
    78606 still even remember the truck number...I'll never forget that thing.

    Now that’s hilarious!

    My 1968 John Deere 140 lawn tractor does that too. It would backfire and shoot out a few 1 foot flames when I throttle down.

    I’ve been mowing 30 years with it and it still runs great. I won’t buy a new one.
    My dad just bought another JD 140 which is also in my garage. :D
