> [@Little\_Nemo](#): > > I’m pretty sure you could drive a Ford on Harrison Ford. He’s 76 and I imagine he isn’t as fast as he used to be. If you want to drive a Ford Prefect on Ford Prefect, you’d have to go after one of the portrayers, e.g., David Dixon or Mos Def. If really desperate, then one of the fellows who did him on radio or stage. ---

I tried to drive my town car to the country but it disintegrated the moment it left town. I voyaged in my Voyager. My kids watched Star Trek Voyager in my Voyager. Driving the Zephyr and Sirocco was a breeze. I tried to drive a Rogue, but it went wild, then began absorbing other cars’ gas. ---
