I have a feeling you'll be harassed off the site!

I'm a moderator at a Dodge truck related site...jokes like these will have you marked forever!

LOL

Now that is funny. I always wanted one of the last of the real Wagoneers. 90 degree opening doors, steel transfer case, very well engineered.

Not very original. Variations of that post have been floating around the car forums for a while now.

Thought there was a link not too long ago posted from a Mustang forum that had the same premise...

I think you missed the part where you could have said you threw in a few Alka-Selter tabs to help the cleaning with "foaming-action" and the like...that might have been a little "too over the top" but funny non-the-less.

Good Luck fishing for the lunkers!

It was funnier when I read it on a Mustang forum.

The mechanic said I should have used Mentos and Coke.

What's with the negativity here? It's not original, or as funny obviously.

Haha, the version where they poured sand into the intake to "Port and polish" the head was the funniest!

That was over on the Volkswagen forums.
