okay, so it's been pretty hot up here, which means it's a great time to vent (get it? get it?). today: the most evil and iniquitous part of the Ford Excursion. it's not the outlandish size, nor the terrible fuel economy, or even the grating name - it's the positioning of the exhaust pipe, which points directly out and to the starboard side, so that when it's hot out and you've got your window rolled down because you don't have a/c and your stupid job makes you wear thick black pants in the dead of summer, and you're at a stoplight next to one of these behemoths, your little mazda 626 is quickly filled with carbon monoxide and other quite actually nauseating fumes. FIE!!! Fie on Ford. Five Fie's out of a possible Five.

OMG, I've thought exactly the same thing! In my little Metro with no A/C, window down, big truck next to me with exhaust spewing into my window. (cough, cough, hack, hack - wheeze!) If I roll the window up at that point, it just traps the fumes in, so ya can't win - or breathe. And another atheist/agnostic (fence walker) prays for the light to turn green!
seriously! i don't know what the engineers were thinking. except maybe "kill all humans." thanks for posting!
