The DUMB Car
1989 Plymouth Horizon
This car would NOT stop running, it just wouldn't give up with all the mechanical defects, it went through so much crap, it lost all it's door handles within a year of age, it would shake and shiver down the road you couldn't sit still in any of the seats, in the winter, parked, the horn would start going off while just sitting in the cold, we had to bang on the stering wheel to get it to stop "horning around" lol..and making all that WEIRD noise. Had to use a pole to keep the hatchback open, it had a major bounce to it, no shocks, even when replaced with NEW shocks. One windsheild blade would get stuck in the middle of the windsheild while the other was going right over the top of it....looked so stinkin' funny....had no gas cap, somebody stole it.
the left front blinker light was out hanging from it's place dangling and banging against the car, still worked too.....that was hilarious....it was just flying in the air down the road. When you turn a corner it made sure everyone within ears reach could hear that damn thing while it whinned as your turning...even just making a simple left turn at an intersection it would squeel bad....hey, we replace the belts...and it STILL whinned around turns. THe clutch cable busted but it still ran just fine and I drove it from the top of idaho, pan handle, clear down to southern Utah....made it just fine!!!
(11 hour drive in that thing)
We "DUM"ped so much $$$ and it still wouldn't fix any of the defects.
As we passed other Plymouth Horizons/Doge Omni's....we noticed that THEIR door handles were missing, some all, some just a couple, some hatch backs didn't lock into place with the vehicle and just had a bounce to it, AND no shocks to few of ones we saw other than ours. Making noise, sounds of about to friggin explode....so funny.....but these damn cars would never give up on ya.
if it weren't for my stupidy on getting a title loan then letting it "bounce" to repo ppl then Id still, to this day, would love to have it because it brought out a lot of laughs.....and it wouldn't give up on me. Great Car, GREAT laughs in those years....MAN, that was funny! Imbarressing but WAY funny!
