    Thumbs up Customer Just Brought In His Used Marauder HAHAHAH

    A customer just bought a used DTR at a other brand dealer yesterday. He couldn't go over 14 mph or the car would shut off. They shut the traction control off so he could drive it. Guess what was wrong with it?????























    The front tires were on the back and backs were on the front. LMAO!!!!!

    Tires rotated?

    Adjusted air in and air out.
    400+ timeslips.

    When in doubt, GAS IT! This will either fix the problem, or end the suspense.

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    They sold him the car like that and shut the traction control off. They told him to take it to a Lincoln Mercury Dealer that it was under warranty. Not for that it wasn't. LOL

    Dealers um...

    I've had my MM at the LM dealer I purchased it from and my local FLM dealer for oil changes. Both asked me if I wanted them to rotate the tires.
