OJ Simpson literally cursed that car model forever.

My favorite take was the white green 4x4 in the Cruisin' USA arcade game had a license plate that said GUILTY.

Trying to find a screenshot cuz that's outstanding if true, but not having any luck. Please post if you can find one!

Almost impossible to find something without installing MAME and taking a screenshot myself. But I got a blurry cap of the back of the 4x4 (which is green, not white):

You can barely make out the text, which was removed from the console versions of the game.

Add: And for the first time ever, I now notice that right above the plate it literally says Jeep.

ABC reports that Ford has ordered a recall for almost 43,000 small SUVs due to a potential risk of fire.

Y’all call that a small suv? … damn

Yeah it's a small sub set of the total - only a specific engine combination made between x and y dates.

Ford lawyer: “If the fuel injectors don’t fit then you must acquit.”

Judge: “Um, not sure that helps your case here.”

If the fuel injectors burn at all, then you must recall.
