Sam, that's what I was going to say. "Are."

Been over 20 years since I've owned a Ford.

Oh wait. Scratch that. I inherited one when I got married.

But we didn't have it for long.
 
One of my best friends inherited a Ford because it was his new wife's vehicle.

It didn't stay in the family long. It started failing and my friend gladly roundhouse kicked the door. (For those worried about hurting the resale value, please laugh. Now.)
 
Until a couple of years ago, the wife drove a 99 Olds Alero. God help you if you ever needed to replace the battery, since GM thoughfully left about a half-centimeter of space between the bolt on the bracket and the grille assembly. Literally you could turn the bolt about 1/8 of a turn at a time before having to take the damn thing out and reinsert it. We went through two batteries, and I lost enough combined skin on my knuckle to clothe an orphanage.
