In my younger days, I actually totalled 2 Pintos. I rammed one into the back of a parked Dodge Pickup. I saw the word Dodge but I couldn't do it fast enough! <lol>

My dad had a Pinto station wagon that was a stick shift. My dad was hauling paint cans around in it and it was a mess. It was a poorest excuse for a car I ever saw. <bg>
