I just saw the dumbest thing ever.

Not even kidding. So the girlfriend and I went on a bit of a drive, been a while since we took one of the cars out and just drove it. Come off the highway and turn left to hit some back roads. Suddenly everyone is slowing down and moving to the right a bit, and I soon see why. Some old beat looking Fusion that we have seen before is coming up the hill with smoke pouring off the left front tire from what looks to be a blow out. Assumed they would stop at the gs station and swap for the spare or whatever they needed to do and be on the road again. So we kept on our drive, drove for about a half hour, turned around and went to head home.

Hopped back on the highway headed north and about a half mile from our exit I see a Trooper with his lights on stopped behind that same fusion, tire gone, looked to be running on the rim for some time. These people share the road with us. Fucking what.

For reference I google mapped the distance that she drove at MINIMUM. Who knows how far she drove before I saw her just after getting off the highway.

17 Miles on a blown tire on the highway. God knows how far she was aiming to go, or had already gone.

Oh, btw, when I say this car was beat, it was the definition of beat First Gen Fusion, covered in stickers saying various words, most common word was “whore” and pink spray paint all over it. Next time I get a chance I’m gonna get a picture of this car, just so happens its always in traffic or someway that isn’t able to be seen.

I enjoyed the optimistic ending where you expect to see this car on the road again. Photo op missed if you ask me.

Theshitty cars always end up on the road again.

I’m sure I’ll see it at a shop or on the road in a week or so.

Photo Op missed, but hard to get a photo when each time to take a picture today was dangerous or impossible, and al previous times it’s been over too far in another lane or I didn’t have my phone one me

I thought you were talking about the Falcons defensive game plan.

But seriously, I kinda feel sorry for these people. They either have no money or no sense or both.

I think this lady has some mental issues judging off the car, I don’t know her, but the letter box stickers really give the impression that she has some issue.

Money may be a problem too, but god damn, what a way to draw attention to yourself.

I’m getting older when the words “Fusion” and “old” are paired together. Maybe it’s where I’m from, but to me, old is still the 1980's and 1990's.

Old to me is every car over ten years old.

I have cars older than that, but still.

I know, right? Its weird seeing cars that you witnessed debuting new at the auto show running around with fogged headlights and growling through rusted exhausts. Honestly, it still feels weird to see 1990s cars like that.

I didn’t even exist until the late 90's, but when I was young was when I really got into cars; I still remember watching MotorWe eks for cars like the Hyundai Veracruz and the Chrysler Sebring convertible (I think that was the same episode).
