Riddle!

Riddle...With a prize to the winner.

What costs every Marauder owner 4 bucks?

It doesn't matter if your purchase was a brand new Marauder, or, a used, Marauder, you still spent this four bucks.

The winner will be the first correct answer, and the prize will be some piece of Marauder memorbilia. If you win, you will need to send your USPS address to SergntMac@aol.com but not until you win, eh?

Post your guess?

[Rick-n-Miami]

Ford "Nudo Leather" is really a formula based leather made from deer skin. It takes about 4x deer (or bucks) to make a MM.

Or am I way off here? :)

[SergntMac]

Y'all Give? I really stumped you? Should I ask the general pop?

[Breadfan]

5w30 oil?

New oil filter?

Federal "Cool car tax"?

Some $4 insurance charge to cover litigation against Ford for CVPI fires?

My first inkling is that this is some sort of Federal or Insurance Board fee having to do with our vehicles.

[TripleTransAm]

A bottle of Tylenol?

[Breadfan]

A gallon of premium fuel?

[MarauderMark]

Tissues and a pair of new underware.

[jawz101]

does this include the classic Marauder owners? I'm wondering if this is more of a trivia question than a riddle.

If this is really a riddle I like the deerskin answer.
Or mine... Nothing. Every expense on my Marauder was well over 4 bucks.

[SergntMac]

Only 8 hours to go, no correct answer yet. C'mon, guys and gals, put your thinking cap on!

When you floor it you get bucked 4 times as you change through the gears?
I wouldn't think all answers would apply to classic marauder owners

If Bunny wins she can give us each 4 bucks

[SergntMac]

That wraskally wabbit, doode it again. Damnit, she is way to smart for the rest of us even on her bad days. THIS ISN'T AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD!:D Dennis

[martyo]

10 dimes......

What performer had a thing for 10 dimes?

[Mike Poore]

What performer had a thing for 10 dimes?

Frank Sinatra, of course!

Hey, this is fun. I bet this could turn into the new buttermilk thread:woohoo:

[Hotrauder]

I am old enough to know the Sinatra question but don't. One of his songs? What is the context? Martyo, Mike? Thanks. :) Dennis aaannnddd, yes Mac would like a Butter Milk Thread! ha ha!

[MERCMAN]

The change that fits in the coin slots in the center console?
:neener: :neener: :neener: :neener:

Um. not to be a nit picker here, BUT,, the car was built in Canada, so it actually holds $4.645492 in coinage in the Great White North. The question was skewed towards US owners! :rofl:

[Breadfan]

Change? You mean COINS?

I tried to put change in those things, but I couldn't fold the $20 and $50 bills the right way, they kept getting jammed!

[Breadfan]

Good call though! I would never have guess - I've not tried to use my change holders - I toss my change (yes coins, and sadly mostly pennies) in the ash tray since I don't use it for smoking.

:beer:

Cheers and good call!

[martyo]

I am old enough to know the Sinatra question but don't. One of his songs?

Mike got it, but does Mike know why?

[Mike Poore]

Mike got it, but does Mike know why?

Sure, Frank always wanted to make sure he had enough change to make a pay phone call. :D

[martyo]

Sure, Frank always wanted to make sure he had enough change to make a pay phone call. :D

True, but why?

[BruteForce]

True, but why?

cuz his bailbonds guy didn't take collect calls? :D

[Hotrauder]

[quote=BruteForce]cuz his bailbonds guy didn't take collect calls? :D[/quote

Brute, you are da man. No one here consistently makes me laugh like you do. Thanks, Dennis:beer:

[Mike Poore]

True, but why?

Wow, Marty's only 43, how's he know this stuff?

It goes back to the early 60's when Frank's son, Frank Jr. was kidnaped, and Frank wanted to be sure he had the change for the pay phone. ;)

[SergntMac]

Phone calls for a dime...That's old history alright.

Try and find a pay phone today...

Funny you should say that Mac. I was at the 7-11 across the street from my house last week when I happend to look up and what to my wondering eyes had appeared but a real live pay phone and I said to myself man its been a long time since I've seen one of those. They are tuff to find but they are around every now and again.

mmm....payphones....paved the way to a financial success for me in the late 80's.:beatnik:

even more scarce is the phone booth, I haven't seen one of those for ages

[Petrograde]

Bunny, you prize is on the way, USPS.

Is it a George Forman Grill? :P

[MM03MOK]

Is it a George Forman Grill? :P:lol: With a Mercury Clam Rake on it!! :lol: Got one without the rake already!

[martyo]

Is it a George Forum?

I haven't seen that one. :confused:

[MM03MOK]

I haven't seen that one. :confused:Ya, you remember! Curious George?

[Bluerauder]

I've not tried to use my change holders - I toss my change (yes coins, and sadly mostly pennies) in the ash tray since I don't use it for smoking.
No coins in my change holders either. :rolleyes: Never been used. :D Tolls around here take folding money.

[Bradley G]

I don't understand how our change storage thing, cost us four bucks.
For sure it holds around four bucks, I know, if it takes an explanation, it looses impact.:confused:

[SergntMac]

I don't understand how our change storage thing, cost us four bucks.

Are you asking a question, or, stating an opinion?

[Mike Poore]

I don't understand how our change storage thing, cost us four bucks.

Mac's right Bradley. It "costs" us four bucks to fill it up.

"What costs every Marauder owner 4 bucks?

It doesn't matter if your purchase was a brand new Marauder, or, a used, Marauder, you still spent this four bucks."

Um, unless he meant DEER. I mean, without the proper "$" signs, there IS room for confusion.:rofl:

Still, I'm wondering about MY prize, since there was a three part, correct answer requirement, for my win of Marty's additional style points part.

[Bluerauder]

Mac's right Bradley. It "costs" us four bucks to fill it up.
This assumes that we all filled it up. Apparently lots of us don't even use the coin holder so some of us MM owners still have that $4 bucks for more mods, an extra quart of oil (your choice of course), about 1.5 gallons of 93 Octane, or maybe even a tire guage or second set of valve caps. :D

So what did Bunny win on this "Riddle"?????? :dunno:

[MM03MOK]

So what did Bunny win on this "Riddle"?????? :dunno:Not even Ms. :bunny: knows. She awaits Ms. PostPerson's delivery! :cheer:

[teamrope]

Frank Sinatra, of course!

Hey, this is fun. I bet this could turn into the new buttermilk thread:woohoo:

I think you're on to something Mike..... :)

[SergntMac]

I thought MartyO said something about the winner of his trivial pursuit, would win a 1/4 mile pass in the L/K, but don't take my word on it...

[MarauderMark]

Not even Ms. :bunny: knows. She awaits Ms. PostPerson's delivery! :cheer:
Maybe its a Marauder coin holder.:D

[Mike Poore]

I thought MartyO said something about the winner of his trivial pursuit, would win a 1/4 mile pass in the L/K, but don't take my word on it...

Now you're talking!
That would be like getting handed a whole box of grenades! :woohoo:

Just to get a ride in LK, never mind driving the beast, would be worth all my waisted youth becoming the world's greatest Sinatra fan.

Perhaps #2, Marty, I think, might be #1. ;)

Anyway, .....BUTTERMILK FOR ALL

I was thinking the same thing. Onething, I never put money in mine so I guess it didn't cost me anything.

[Mike Poore]

I was thinking the same thing. Onething, I never put money in mine so I guess it didn't cost me anything.

What about the three quarters, two dimes, and the nickel I swiped out of your car to pay for Dan's burger and coke? ;)

Actually Barb got 'em while I was trying to get our slow azzes accross Woodward without getting run over. She says it was a transportation tax.:rofl:
