Risking my life to save an $800 car!?

1. Vinwiki Roulette! Will I get John Ficarra, or will I get some rich kid lying! I won today!

2. Your episode with the carpet reminded me of "The Last Hunt" where Gilson freezes to death while wearing a freshly cut Buffalo fur. Glad it didn't happen to you.

3. Years ago, I had a breakdown in a rural area. There was some stupid law, probably an old blue law, that tow trucks in the nearest town 7 miles away couldn’t tow cars to my city on a Sunday, so I had to call a tow truck in my city and have them drive out to this rural area to pick me up and return my car to my house 49 miles away.

4. It’s the Mercury Fairlane 😂

5. I love to hear stories surrounding my hometown of Yonkers!

6. holy thump. LADA (avto-VAZ) in some movie?
   where? Those other cars should have been included in that movie, not just the Lada.

7. Freezing?!?! Now I bet you wished you hadn't put the fire out!

8. Not gonna lie, my heart broke a little when John said he abandoned the car…

9. Seriously, just put the persons name in the thumbnail or title. The people telling the story, gives more merit to viewers.

10. Ficarra NEVER fails to deliver.

11. I barely pay attention to this anymore.

12. So shop I used to work at there was this old Buick outback and A bunch of work had been done on it. The guy had stopped paying and it had been sitting for a while but the story was that he was in Los Angeles during the Rodney King riots and somebody had left this car in the riot area and told him that they would sell it to him for 500 bucks but they got to go get it. He ended up paying a tow truck driver like $2,500 to go down, grab this car and get the hell out of there

13. Ficarra does not disappoint!!

14. A bit of a sad story if you're a fan of old cars…

15. You get a full 5 gal gas can 6 feet of fuel line stick one end in the can and run the other end out the window and under the hood and away you go, half hour fity bucks

16. We still need to hear about the mercy Ed called you to buy! RIP carrera s

17. So a Mercury version of a Fairlane…….😮

18. In NY you got to pay a toll to pull into a parking spot just to pay to park 😂

19. Does every Ficarra story suck balls? 🤷

20. 😂😂😂

21. 10 dollar gas can and 5 dollars of fuel line wouldve gotten the car there

22. I wonder if John Ficarra still knows the vin number or have a record of it somewhere. I know the chances that the car was probably dragged to a chop shop or to some impound lot and destroyed is probably how it ended. But imagine you search the vin number and actually find it !

23. The lil meteor roams free now, muffler glowing in the night

24. I’m a car guy… and an idiot…

25. Just thinking about it, if when the car breaks down in such a dangerous place and it's freezing cold and nowhere to go – why not call the police? An officer, other than direct traffic away from hitting you and keeping you warm in the squad car could possibly agree to tow it to a safe area 🤷🏼‍♂️
