    A couple months ago my roommate had to downright beg me to try a bottle of that red, white, and berry Smirnoff. I've had a few tastes of alcohol before but that was the first full bottle I've drank ever. Haven't touched alcohol since. Just not something I'm interested in.

    My only traffic citation was from almost four years ago for driving a little faster than I should've on an icy road. I don't smoke, do or take illicit substances, and I've never even bought a lottery ticket.

    I'm a pretty boring person.

    I worked with a guy that was a diehard GM fan and he would always tell me what he fixed on them over the weekend. I usually told him it sounds like he needed part# FORD.

    You left the Ford 300 I6 out of iconic solid engines. I've got one in a F150 with 248k on it along with the original E4OD trans. The GM 3800 was a Buick engine that was developed for Indy Car I believe and they were very reliable, no idea why they were forced or chose not to continue development. It could be that current emission requirements simply made it not feasible to adapt it?

    The '94 (bright red color) is a two owner car. 213k miles and has all the service records since brand new, even the original window sticker and tidbits from the dealership it was first purchased at.

    My '09 (maroon/burgandy/wine color) is a one owner car from the Chicago area (or so says Carfax) with 79k miles. Took it on a 2400 mile road trip in June. Has some surface rust underneath that I need to address one of these days.

    You are correct! I had a 91 f150 with the venerable 300 Cid 6 that I bought new , only kept it a couple years but had a couple friends that ran them north of 300k .
