God is against us

The establishment will always hammer anyone that goes against the accepted norm, ie a silver Ford Focus (preferably with a chrome fish on the back).

Having just bought such a vehicle, one of the key selling points was the chrome fish: a sure-fire indicator that it had never been over 50mph in its entire life.

Not necessarily true… my Escort has a chrome fish on the back.

I've got a window sticker version of that.

This has me questioning Moses' intelligence, which is disappointing as he is considered a wise old sage. He had a fairly lengthy journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, which included driving through the Red Sea. What on earth was he doing in Triumph Stag? No wonder the children of Israel spent forty years in the wilderness. They were most probably trying to repair the head gasket and prevent it from overheating. By the time they had sorted that out, the rust had most probably set in and they needed to weld the chassis back together. An old Merc or Peugeot 504 would have been a more sensible choice.

And it certainly wouldn't have been a 2.5 PI. The injection system in my Dad's packed up on mountains.
