In what sense? Cramped engine bays? Or just lemons?

Lot of them have problems, particularly the ML

They are so different in the way they are put together from most other brands. Lots of special service tools required. Lots of staring at them scratching your head thinking "why would they do it this way". I'm sure a lot of it is me just not having a ton of experience with them, but they still suck to work on. They were designed with very little consideration for needing service in the future. They are great cars, very well built, just a pain to diagnose and repair.

Man, I take my dad for granted.

He jacked up the car & replaced a melted pulley in the engine bay at like noon on the side of the highway. He's a self-taught whiz with cars. Will always blow my ****ing mind. We've never taken a car to the mechanic in (almost) 20 years of living in Canada.

It's a blast to drive though. I really am quite fond of it. Efficient, peppy, roomy, and it doesn't take itself too seriously. I'll drive it until it dies.

learn what you can from him, it's a great skill to have. lots of shops tend to overcharge for imports.

I really do love cars, and I hope to develop a hobby of resorting them some day.

With that said, I quite literally don't have the free time to sit and watch him do ****. I chose da school life, and it honestly zaps so much of my free time at this point in my life. I barely even have time to practice guitar.

It's one of those things I always wanna be able to learn though. I know how to change my oil & tires, but that's about it. Still, that's more than 99% of my friends in school.!

Cant believe you let go of a 60s Cougar. They damn sure dont make the same anymore.


Question: My neighbour has a '74 Javelin AMX chilling in his garage just wasting away, and hasnt really done anything with it. Do you know much about the car, and would it be cool to attempt to restore one? It seems like its in pretty good condition already.

This is still chilling in this ****s garage. My dad has approached him like 10 times asking to buy. Hopefully he'll budge someday.

People don't know how to change oil? Geez. Put a drip pan under, remove the plug, let it drain, plug back in, fill with new oil. Simple. Then check your fluids and filters.

And if you're a man and can't change a tire, your entire existence is a joke.
