looked at the murky puddle of leaked power steering fluid under the car and tsked. It's things like these that remind me why my dad was so against me buying a fox, and why he recommended the latest available New Edge instead. Being well over the 10th issue I've had with this car, I'm really starting to believe I should've listened to him.

Only 10?? These foxes are nothing compared to the CJ7 I restored. Stuff leaked right after being rebuilt. Things broke for no reason. Tolerances on aftermarket parts were so sloppy. You practically had to bring tools with you each time you left home. I finally had enough and got rid of it.

Darn. now that's one severe case. I'm just disappointed cus I had a real hard time finding a fox that was cosmetically unmolested / unharmed plus it had some pretty sweet mods. Since I don't have the time and money for a proper from-scratch project car n it was ready to go n all, I had thought it would be a pretty swell low maintenance daily driver. I love working on cars but my knowledge can't always keep up with the problems she keeps throwing at me, and the times she decides to break down don't always agree with my schedule so I'm left for long intervals driving the family SUV instead. Not getting rid of her just yet though.
