Was it down? Well... since it did the speed limit + on the way there and back, it wasnt really down was it? Unlike your truck, which from the sound of it was down in the sense that it wouldnt drive on the freeway. So, no, not down either.

So not broken, and not down, Im gonna have to go with not broken down on this one. Sorry Guy.

PS, since my car is um... a car, theres really no need to keep using car analogies. We can just talk about my car directly. So what do you consider to have been broken on my car?
Not working correctly=broken. You chose to pull over to keep from further damage, if everything was the way it should be you'd have no reason to "pull over"

Truck was able to drive the speed limit, though it would be pretty stupid to keep driving it like that being it was in limp mode, which takes quite a bit to do. So i pulled over because it broke, now its down.

Again, whether I was right or wrong, my joke served its purpose well.

False. You dont consider a metering block broken with sludge on it, no one does. Youre just clinging to your statement because you dont like to be proven wrong.

Yeah, I was joking about the pulled over thing. I think the expression just basically means the car cant be driven without risking damage or doesnt run for whatever reason as simple as it may be at times.

Agreed, but here there was no risk of damage, and the car did run. I just pulled over to check it, got some Mc Donalds, and drove it home.

The value you place on the pursuit of truth is such that your mind will not permit you to indulge others in their untruths when you think you can change their minds. That's what he meant.
