To the designers at Ford.

In regards to the design of the Ford Ranger pickup truck.

Dear sirs,

In regards to the design of your popular pickup truck, the Ford Ranger,

Assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns!!!

Why the hell did you put the distributor by the back firewall where it's next to impossible to reach, much less work on, especially when it takes forever to cool down there???? Frickin' burns......I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hope you all die trampled by elephants.

Assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns, assclowns!!!!

End of rant, the calm version.

P.S. In the future, would you consider modeling the engine compartment of this truck after that of my 73 Mustang? An excellent car, and a very sensible working arrangement, with room to take a nap, or move a small Korean family in and still close the hood. Not to mention a distributor on the front that can be easily worked on, or removed even immediately after the car has been running without burning the #%&*&!!! out of your thumb and or fingers. I have also appreciated similar work on the 30s and 40s coupes, as well as your 70s line of pickup trucks such as the large block F-250s.
Yours truly, spc nbs.

Interesting rant . . . I know only enough about vehicles to comprehend where the key goes to start the ignition, but if I actually knew something, I'm sure I would agree with you completely!

*nice use of elephants and the word assclown, btw*

Thank you, the elephants appreciate that.

A distributor, is the octopus looking thing that all the wires to the spark plugs go to in most cars, at least until recently. It's distributes an electrical charge to one plug at a time, giving the spark that burns the fuel in each cylinder in order. When you get your timing adjusted by turning this part, it changes when the fuel is burned in the cylinder, relative to the motion of the parts inside your engine.

It can also be a pain in the ass, even when in a place that is easy to reach and not red hot.
