worst vehicle you've ever driven - Page 3

*Mindz* · 03-17-2008, 11:53 PM

Definitely the 97 Acura Integra. Was an automatic with VTEC. I was on the freeway with the gear selector in D. Slowing down for traffic from 65, soon as I hit 53 mph, the engine downshifted to 2nd from 4th.

Now I want you to think about this.

Second Gear from cruising in Fourth Gear

Now think about this also.

Second Gear at 53mph.

I thought the engine was going to blow up. Why would the engine shift INTO THE REDLINE while I'm breaking? I will never buy another honda again unless it's a stick. Only acuras I like are the TSX's anyways.

I don't like my wagon, but that was the epitome of the ugly wagon. That must have been embarrassing.

Back about 1991, I worked with my stepdad in a construction business. They bought 2 old us mail step vans and painted one a metallic blue-green color and the other a metallic maroon color. They named them Pinky Dinky 1 and 2. I drove one of them around to our jobsites to deliver materials etc. The steering wheel was on the right side and I could barely drive the thing between the lines. It also would barely do 50mph on the highways I had to drive on. I guess that would be the worst vehicle I'd ever driven.

The Ford Focus at the driving school. Oh and the Focus my buddy used to have before he bought his Audi A6. And the Focus my grandfather used to have before he lost his license.

But the Focus isn't the worst. Oh no, it's the Ford Transit that I had to drive for work for two weeks about a month ago. Loud diesel, no sound insulation to speak of so on the free way you went fast just to get where you where going to MAKE THE NOISE STOP! And it had no cruise control and a very hard gas pedal. I hated it soo much.

Alternative fuel civic ... Merging on the freeway was scary because I didn't have enough runway to get to their speeds.
