Cobra, DOWN AGAIN!!!!!

Unit 5302 · 04-01-2001, 02:07 PM

What the hell!!?

Ford has discontinued the Cobra's production, again!

According to this article, Ford has stepped on SVT again! This time because of failing axles on the IRS. They told SVT to recall, and replace all axles because of breakage complaints!

In the meantime, they are discontinuing production of the 2001 Cobra because of the short supply of additional updated axles mandated by Ford corporate.

All Cobra R's are to get the new axles as well, which means they are covered under the recall too.

Just as the Cobra's were supposed to roll onto the lot's Ford has stepped on them again! What gives? Even existing orders and cars are under the recall. They can't even leave the lot until the update has been performed!

Here's a link. www.aprilfools.com

Go there! Read the article, tell me what you guy's think.

You know, I really didn't know whether or not that link went anywhere. Now that I think about it, I could have gotten into all kinds of trouble like that hehehehehe.

I just assumed anybody who actually read the link's name would get the joke.
