So in my town there is a place called top of the world. It's an old rocky road thats pretty steep that leads to a spot where you can see the whole town (Tillamook,OR). Well my friend has had problems with his transmission and I guess an oil leak too. Well basically the hood started smoking, everyone got out, it caught on fire and actually exploded. I couldn't help but laugh when he was telling me this story.:icon_rofl:

Sucks to hear about the death of a FORD of any kind.

Yes, but better a mangificent explosion than some wreck or being driven to death by an uncaring idiot.

Going out with a bang is always better than fading away. :p

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!

Sounds like you and your buddies were heading up to "make-out point". :thefinger:

"make-out point"

A popular place to park your car, preferably a convertible, and make out with your girl. Typically on a cliff overlook.
