They all break down eventually and none of them is perfect. They don't make my perfect truck or car. That's life.
I'll pass along a real life anecdote. I got a complaint once of a guy who found his new Ford truck totally trashed one Sunday morning. Windows smashed out, upholstery ripped, tires slashed, engine compartment smashed, etc. Wasn't real hard to find the guy that did it. Picked up the other guy and asked him why he did it? I figured he and the trucks owner must have been at war over a girl or something. Nope, he'd never so much as laid eye's on the owner. What had happened was he'd gone out the night before and gotten tanked up and had seen this truck in a parking lot. In his words, he'd "lost it". I asked what he meant. He said, "Ford SUCKS!!!" And that's why he committed a felony and, IIRC, went to jail for close to a year after the plea bargain.
Arguments like this always remind me of that.
Well said. There's good and bad in them all.
Childish pissing match, my truck/tractor/@@@@ is better/bigger than yours, childish.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
