FUNNY TTRUE story...
Just read a little true story from Car and Driver and had to share; it's really funny. Don't know if it's been posted in the past, but here goes...
There was a man who worked at a dealership's service department. One day, a blond girl (ironic, isn't it?) walked in with her boyfriend's vehicle asking to get service.
She told the man that she needed service on her Ford Fiso. The man then became a little perplexed and asked her if she meant a Mitsubishi Fuso (a big commercial truck) because at the time, they also serviced those Mitsu trucks as well.
She then replied that she was sure her vehicle was a Ford Fiso. The man became even more perplexed and told her that of his almost 20 years of working here, he had never heard of or seen a Ford Fiso. As a result, she became irritated and impatient, and with a higher tone of voice, she said that she saw them all the time on the roads and even many of them here on the lot when she walked in.
So, the man asked her to show him those Ford Fiso on the lot, and they walked out there. She walked over to a Ford truck, pointed at the emblem on the side and said, "See? Here's a Fiso for you." The man busted out a laugh so hard and loud, and told her that it was an F-150, not FISO (or F-ISO). She turned red and became embarrassed.
After having read that, I busted out a good laugh from it. A few good ironical points are: 1) out all the girls, she had to be a blonde. 2) of all the times she spent with her boyfriend, had she never heard of him (or anyone for that matter) say "F-150"? It's a true story too.
