SAAB is a great product

As "Click" and "Clack" say:

"Where's there's smoke, there's SAAB!"

I love that quote.

Wow, no Volvos! Does this mean Ford is abandoning its gay-supporting agenda?

“To post 24 tag line : Don’t tempt The Lord Your God. The punish will more than you can imagine.”

You have misunderstood the intent of the tag line. This is a fulfillment of God’s own instruction.

“Isaiah 54:6 Seek the LORD while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.

7 Let the wicked forsake his way
and the evil man his thoughts.
Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.”

and

“1 Thessalonians 5:21 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)

21Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.”

Your reference is to Satan’s temptation of Christ, to throw Himself off the pinnacle of the temple to fulfill “his angels will bear you up”. To put ourselves in danger is to tempt God. To call upon him is to fulfill His will.

The MOUNTS are completely worthless...

Idiots at Toyota won’t acknowledge their pathetic design.

Funny thing is the public thinks that Ford learned safety from Volvo.

But in the years before Ford bought Volvo, Ford had more 5 star rated vehicles than all other manufacturers combined.
