I hate my SVT.
I hate that the passenger side skirt is scratched and that there is a 3/8 inch gap between the body and the skirt at the rear wheel.
I also hate that it did not come with the original SVT floor mats. This really burns me up.
I hate that it is so low. Housewives in Escapes and Oddeseys will pull up on my right when I'm trying to make a left turn and I can't see schit. I've started to move to the right a little so they can't get past and block my view. They think I'm blocking them to be a jerk or that I'm just stupid and they yell and honk and give me dirty looks at my daughter's basketball games. The ones with the little fish emblem on the back of their trucks usually give me the finger. I really hate this.
I hate it when kids in Mustang GT's get about four inches from my rear bumper at speed and say things at the red light like "I thought SVT's were fast, ha ha ha." Replying, "Yea, but the thought of cashing out my Roth and buying a Z06 when I'm 59 1/2 makes up for it" doesn't change the fact that my car can't keep up with anything that has a V8.
I hate that it is silver/blue. I really wish mine was red/tan. But I hate red/tan CSVT's more than silver/blue ones becuase mine is not red/tan. I hate the owners of red/tan CSVT's most of all. Owners of red/tan CSVT's suck.
I really hate that it has a Yamaha Porsche Cosworth engine. A client of mine said, "Oh, that car would have been a piece of schit if it weren't for the fact that Ford had Yamaha build the engines for them." At least they could have put a "Powered by Yamaha" emblem underneath the SVT badge. GRRRRR!
While we are at it, I hate that ford makes stupid trucks (which are supposed to carry two by fours and pallets of bricks anyway) with superchargers and my SVT doesn't even come with a decent cold air intake. I have a good mind to cash in the roth early and buy a 3L with a Vortech (or just hike the appilacian trail and drive a Z06 back from Maine).
And parts... who has parts? Which friggin' brake pads fit a 99 built 12/98 anyway and who at Ford is responsible for making the sunroof gears out of Playdough? I had to sell my 25th Anniversary Edition Oldsmobile Toronado Trofeo becuase I couldn't get parts for it anymore... Obsolete... No Longer Available.... I guess my SVT is next.
But the thing I hate the most... the thing that really pisses me off... Is that the 66 year old lady five doors down from me has an SE Sport V6, pristine condition, that she bought new in 99, had the dealer maintain and has only driven it 66,000 miles in close to ten years.
I think I might give up and buy a Camry. Thanks for listening.
