Hi, Guest
No I said buying expensive houses is for chumps.
I even complimented you on your choice of house. Are you slightly touched today?
I said I was CONSIDERING it. Is it just me or does everyone around here lack for a topic to attack me on lately, so they jump on ANYTHING?
I said 1.2 million for a 4-bedroom, 2 bathroom HOUSE was nuts. Yup, I did. If you guys can't see why that cost for that house is crazy, well then I guess you're losing it, too.
I said I was CONSIDERING swapping engines, and that I was also just considering getting a new Focus with a Zetec, or even considering a demo'ed 05 Duratec sedan.
I really wish people would take the f'ing time to read my posts instead of assuming the f'ing worst and then jumping all over me.
I also notice that said people who constantly bashed the Niteshade were awful nice to me at the BBQ and didn't say s**t about it. Perhaps they actually liked the car, and perhaps they were just being courteous. Who knows, who cars. Bryan, that wasn't a poke at you, BTW.
For the record, considering I can't do the whole thing (swap to Zetec) under $2000 for sure, I've decided against it. I also went and drove a 05 Duratec ZX4 SE sedan tonight. Nice car, but the suspension feels softer AND higher, and while the Duratec has noticeably more pep (especially towards the top end), I'm holding off.
I did the shorthand (and rough estimate) math tonight... I would rather have paid out the 6Gs I have on the car loan so far and trade it in than pay the total 15Gs overall over 5 years and then attempt to get something out of it. So, in a few months or in the spring, we're looking for a '04 Zetec-powered Sedan.
I asked about doing the conversion, I didn't ask to be attacked here. I guess "shoot first, ask questions later" doesn't just apply to American fighter pilots.
Oh wait, I did say "will". Whoopededfuckingdo. If everyone here followed through on "will", a lot of cars would be markedly different. So I've smartly evaluated it and decided against it. I think I'm facking allowed to do that, seeing as it is MY car and it hasn't even been a full calendar day since I posted the thread starter.
