Either way, it's not really the speed that matters, but the rate of deceleration.

That must of been frustrating only going 50 mph. You would get pushed off the highways in FL.

Yes, many l-o-n-g trips between Citrus and Elder Ford in Tampa in the vibra-lounger special :mad: - all for nothing as no one could/would fix the car.
Ferd bought it back after almost a year of BS for full price (only 1200 miles on the clock - most of which were back & forth to the dealer + them 'test driving' it).

My 2nd and last major disappointment with a Ferd product, I'd ride a big wheel before buying another vehicle from them.

We've always had bad luck with GM shit. 2 lemon law buybacks and traded out of a couple in the last 30+ years.

I have had extremely good luck with GM vehicles.
Then again, I never did buy any GM shit, just good ones.

We would only drive a Mercedes until the mid 2000s model years. My last one was a 2011 E550 and it was toast at 48K.
Wife test drove a 2021 and never finished the test drive.

The best one that I had was a 1985 Pontiac Safari wagon it was a theft recovery that I bought at a salvage auction. Puppy ran forever but the suspension gave out around 225K.

I wasn't referring to her accident specifically, I was referring to her being projected through the windshield, but thanks for missing the point.
No more so than your reaction to my comment. Some find the desire to argue more enjoyable than stating facts. were all good.

Stopped buying GM products when I ran out of things to do with 4000 lbs of rapidly oxidizing metal in the driveway.

Sounds more like a Florida problem than a GM problem.

I bet my FCA/Stellantis vehicles would rust, too, if I lived in a swamp. Then again, rust would be among the least of my worries with all the gators and snakes around.

Someone will get a hold of it and restore it.
Even wrecks are not the bargain they used to be..

She's GONE😩. Geico offered me $56,355.00 buy out. Hard to pass on that number being just too many unknowns. And if I really want another Bullitt I am sure one will be available without bent Strut Towers😳

How was Geico’s offer compared to the market value of the car? Just curious, I’m considering switching Insurance companies…

That seems pretty good but I’m not sure the original cost.

The offer was IMO excellent being the market is 50k plus.
