Default Warranty Service???

So, I took the company truck to my local Ford Dealer for service.

They told me it was out of warranty!!!

Yeah, well...I told them that if that was the kind of service to expect, I wasn't going to buy one of their "new" ones when this one gets old.

Just wait until NHTSA issues a gas tank safety recall...

Edit: I meant - of course - Transport Canada...

I've got a 31. Is it out of warranty also or just the old Fords?

Next time they give you a bumper to bumper warrantee by sure your vehicle has two bumpers. Gotta love the fine print.

The upside is no recalls in 80 years.

The photos was taken at our local chapter's annual "Safety Inspection" day, which is mandatory prior to touring with the club.

We are fortunate to partner with a local Ford dealership that provides a lift for proper inspection.

The display is also open to the public with food and beverages sold as part of fund-raising for local charity.

If you read the back cover of the Ford A repaint manual the bottom far right photo says that"After the enamel is applied the finish will retain it's fine appearance for the life of the car". They had no idea how good these cars would remain on our roads, did they?
