Being a vet, you might think I would know about the Pinto horse. They are little painted horses no doubt, but there is a breed called the Paint as well and they are definetly recognized as different breeds -- problem is they look the friggin same to me and most people think it's sort of a joke to have the separate breeds - but man, if you called a paint owners' horse a Pinto or vise versa, you'd think you comitted murder or something. Horse people..................no offense.
Pinto's are smaller horses as horses go and I believe that is why Ford used the name - smaller car, still gets a pony-car name. And as far as the pinto horse goes, you might say they react similar to the car with rear-end impact - they tend to be kicking, tense little SOBs that blow-up on you when you're working with them, unreliable, shall I go on ----- again, no offense if there happen to be any pinto (horse) owners around here. If you own the car though, you need your head examined!
