If Ford did this with the Fusion(same chassis as the Mondeo, and maybe the panels are interchangable), then I would love the car for it's looks. In fact, I was really hoping, when Ford said it was bringing this model over, that it would look similar.

That looks like crap compared to the real deal. Ford hit a home run with the new Fusion.

gtfo with your psycho bullshit. Its not cool and not funny.
It's true. He knows the color of my house because he sits outside it in his car. He knows the sticker my wife has on her car? Wonder how. What he should alos know is that ever stalking comment he posts get's passed along to the Kane County Sheriff. He also knows that the next time he steps on my property he will be arrested. My friends at the sherrif's department have confirmed this

What I find strange is that the owners of this site let this go on. Don't they know that on the next instance my lawyer is going to suppona them and the contents of this website? Sunbiz should have been banned like he has been on 10 other sites.

I agree about the fusion. It's cool but to me it looks too Aston Martin-y. The Mondeo looks just right. Stylish and subtle, not too flashy

The new Fusion is fucking awesome. Ford keeps proving why it didn't need a damn bailout like Government Motors and Chrysler. The my touch system is much more than just a navigation system.


Back to the OP's question, yes FWD is fine for winter. Traction control helps too with slipping wheels.

He is one sick asshole. If you met him and talked to him you would know what I mean. The last time he showed up I was not at home. The Sheriff came out and they referred to him as a "person of interest" and they have had dealings with him before. My lawyer talked to the Kane County State's Attorney and the Sheriff's dept and we have been assured that the next time he steps foot on my property he will be arrested. So, every time he posts something here I forward it to my attorney and he forwards it to the county. If there are any issues he will be the first person on their list

In the meantime he drives by my house constantly in his piece of shit beater.

This all started when he kept begging me to meet him to talk about Walter Payton who used to be my neighbor and workout partner. We have breakfast and when the bill comes he has aligator arms. OK. It was a strange 45 minutes with him just staring out the window. OK, so it's just breakfast and I wont have to see this clown again. But he starts leaving me endless email and voice mail messages to get together. No way. So he gets pissed and starts making fun of me on the other forum and I catch him sitting in his car outside my house and see him in the shitbox car driving by. No big deal, but then he waits till I'm gone then comes to my house and scares my wife. I call the sheriff anf they go to his house and warn him. You know the rest. Oh, and after all of this he says on this forum that he wants to get together and "talk it out" LOL. A human being would just drop the subject and let it go away. This psycho will never stop. In fact, he was kicked off other forums for stalking their members. There is also a book he was mentioned in about some psycho shit that happened in the Carribean in the 80s and a forum that has closed down where he was defending his behavior in the whole matter.

Arm yourself and take care. I will talk to cop son in law but you may have to handle this on your own. Remember no mercy he came to you.

Would you like to hear the story of omeletpanties?.

I just drove within a mile of his home here in Elgin...he lives near me.

I've met his senile, sorry ass in person. A few years back we got into an argument on the CBMB. So, I sent him an email. He had previously provided me with his cell phone# and personal email address. His response to the email was, "**** You".

I shop out near where he lives on a regular basis, so I dropped by his house on the way home one day. He wouldn't answer the door. At the time, I could understand b/c his Grandchildren were there, so I left...and left it at that.

Until 4 hours later, when a Kane County sheriff knocked on my front door. Good old omeletepanties(Bob Rosenthal)wrote down my Florida tag and called them.

After I showed the cop his emails etc., there was nothing he could do but walk away wondering why a successful retiree could be such a jackass on the internet.

Feel free to paste this one over there...b/c Mr. Rosenthal utilizes the internet to say things he doesn't have the balls to do in-person.

You should meet his wife...she was standing outside when I knocked on his door. She's a hellcat as well...lol.

So if Biz is telling the truth why did he post eggs name and in another thread an image of his house? Sounds like we have a psycho on the board.

On one hand I think Omeletpants should knock this guy out for coming to his home and bothering his family, that isn't cool. On the other hand, it sounds like he brought on himself for giving his number out, meeting with the guy, and antagonizing people on the CBMB and acting like a complete dick most of the time.

Well gee, if I go beat his ass he'll call the police and sue me.

So, I harass him here since he decided to join.

Now mind your own fucking business.
