build a better Ford

Ford asked for suggestions to make better cars.

One of our personal favorites was the “Fuel from your Ford” suggestion posted by Steve S. Basically, it’s an option that would allow you to use the truck’s fuel tank as one big jerry can – filling up lawn mowers and the like without having to store a bunch of smaller containers in the garage.

I thought this was genius. People already think of their trucks as tools, utilities, extensions of themselves. I love the idea of pushing the mower to the truck to fill it up.

    You ever see a person siphon gas from the tank by way of an inserted tube? Sometimes he gets a sudden mouthful of gas and has to spit it out. I say “he” because a woman would never do such a dumbass thing.

    Okay when I was a kid I did it. My daddy showed me how.
