Is that all you do? Complain about your car? Why don't you just get rid of it?

I have no idea what your problems are, but I too am sorry for them. I must say that I have never owned a better driving, better handling, better performing car in my life than my XF!

Isn't it a bit optimistic to assume you would survive the fall from driving the first one off the cliff? I know the Crossfire has a 5-star safety rating, but that didn't include a drop test.

Ugh, FBD, please remember that you need to exit the vehicle before it goes over the cliff...oh, forget that, it's only a dream anyway.

The nightmares continue? Ouch.

I love my XF. In fact I would love to have a second one. Before I bought mine, I was torn between the coupe and the roadster. I really like the roof lines on the coupe. I was on the fence. My wife slightly pushed me over to the roadster decision. So, If prices continue to drop on this car, I wouldn't mind having a coupe also, but I think I would go for the SRT in that case.

Yep, he was quiet for way too long and is now trying to pick a fight... but aint gonna happen, not with me!! Nopers, I love my car and like your title says "I wish I owned two Crossfires instead of one..." so that I could alternate between a coupe or SRT and my Roadster!!

My chant continues "I love my Crossfire, I love my Crossfire" Anyone want to repeat after me and get FireBaseD all riled up?

And it was PERFECT weather today - low 70's, top down and cruising...

The only problems I have had to date are the seat heater.
Other than that it is the best quality car I have owned.
It is also the most fun.
I hate to admit it is more fun to drive than the '71 challenger R/T big block car I had...
and that was with all polyurethane suspension and 18" BFG's on it.
I'll probably own this one till I wind up restoring it, unless I get an srt6 instead.

You "HAD!"... Oh please tell me you sold it for really "BIG MONEY" and not "Chump Change", like I did with my '69 Hemi Super Bee.

I'm with FP. I owned a coupe for two weeks and sold it to a buddy for a roadster. Looking forward to a couple years down the road and buy an SRT6 coupe with heavy mileage.

No I did good. 40k. I paid off school loans and got totally debt free about 3 years ago. It would have been worth about 10k more in today's market but that is how it goes.
I miss it but I can always build another.

Make sure you are at least seated in one of these cars as it makes it's way over the cliff.

I read a lot of threads but don't often feel the need to reply.

I'm over your crap. I have read it in a few threads.

In Australia we have what they call "Whining Poms"- translation is English people that come to our country and ***** about everything (the weather, the hot sun, the cold wind, the food- whatever they want to whine about).

Obviously you have nothing better to do than ***** and moan about what is, generally, a great car. Doing this bitching in a forum like this means that you either thrive on confrontation and tweaking up others or you have no friends so you sit in front of your computer thinking of any old crap to write 'cause no-one can be bothered actually listening to it- I'm undecided which it is.

Perhaps I'll start a thread that we can all contribute to. The title could be "why is FirebaseD so bitter" and we could all analyze possible scenarios. We could start getting into things like "perhaps he was bullied in the schoolyard as a kid" or " perhaps he wet the but until the age of 14".

Mate, we could have some fun- or perhaps you could just go away and get over it.

OK so you feel a need to start a thread about me... hooah... are you taking odds on who will be the first to figure out the games I play inside my head?? As for the "Go away and get over it"... I would, but I'm not sure if the Crossfire would get me very far up the road before the dash board starts a blaze due to the electrical short located there... anyways what's the weather like down under?

Firebased, I understand the car is under warranty and you say you have not received any satisfaction from the dealer.
Have you taken it upon yourself to try to figure out the problem by learning how to diagnose the electrical problem?
It seems to me all the time spent video taping the dash noise and driving to dealers and bitching here on the form you could have figured this out many times over so far.
If you are not electrical savvy or have no mechanical background you must surly have a friend that has some experience.
You do have friends don't you?
Best of luck,
stryfox

Enjoy your road trip, I'm sure we will all be looking forward to a full report on it.
