  1. i have cases of lead foot, but typically don't see the need for it, now when i had the 83 regal wagon and gas was $1... that was a little different... the raw power of maybe 110hp in a 2+ ton car with a 3speed... yeah!!!!!!
  2. just imagine a two mode behind that diesel... putting this in at least the H3 would be a GREAT start here, and there, surely
  3. i'm guessing the same thing may pertain to the vue, aura, and isn't the 08 'bu getting the same system as well
  4. the comment that displacement would be more than the ls7....? think it was bait or serious?
  5. doesn't look bad i guess... tis' a mule i suppose /meatwad-> that's a nice car she's washin'. think it's a straight six?/ur->i've got a straight six.

    Disturbia

    this looked pretty good, not sure if i'd go see it, shia looks like he's getting big movie roles.. oh totally going to see transformers, and prolly the next movie i see is "hot fuzz"
  7. where's the corvette , cobalt, and more guides allready? gosh!
  8. there was a projected map on google maps / earth if the sea levels rose maybe 5, 10, 15, 20 feet i think
  9. that's geared tons lower than my 99 monte LOL mine turns that speed close to 70mph but i think 3rd gear would be maxxing out at 120ish calc thinks you could hit ~315mph ... given no air resistance, rolling resistance and the wheels/tires held together.
  10. more pics please!!! very interesting though.
  11. i don't remember really, but i'm pretty sure china was at least considering building a large solar plant , maybe towards the Gobi desert...kinda on the scale of the 3 gorges dam... speaking of which, is kinda sad. progress trumps history and nature in china pretty easily. i think this all relates to the dwindling # of pirates....oh no Flying spaghetti monster!!! had to, should've been my first post , oh well.
  12. caprice = unique! says it's rust free.... that's just not possible lol lumina, interesting... pretty rare ,at least it was driven some... prolly local car shows
  13. haha........ that's just funny
  14. looked it up.... answers.com dictionary you're right the middle ages had a mini hot age..... but according to answers, i wasn't wrong, only limited it's span... unless you mean about the violins?
  15. i was guessing from what i remember... didn't take time to look it up kinda sad climate is so rarely incorporated into history. the other part of the mini ice age that influenced culture is it's a good chance why beer became so widespread.....to harsh in germany to grow grapes for wine... turned to heartier wheat for the winter crops and thus beer was a staple in the culture since it was cheaper than wine... or at least so the hypothesis goes.
  16. very nice! i so want to see this part of the world someday. and while in the area hiagha sophia (sp?) in istanbul
  17. taking a bigger scope at this...the mini ice age Europe had..oh what was it...17th century?... created the trees that were more dense to create the near priceless stratavarious (sp?) violins. there's the whole earth's wobble cycle, milankovitch cycles that even the mayan's figured out near 2000 years ago. i'm of the persuasion it could be happening, but it's more of just climate change... supposedly scotland has been getting colder over the last few years, sorry no article link though. I know I saw one on how the air pollution from china may be changing rain patterns from the midwest-west to the coast. i think the big thing is that these people that are using this science data think we know everything, please! if we knew everything, life would damn near perfect, and to think we know a lot about how we indirectly affect things is silly. there are at least a few ancient cities that are under about 140 ft of water.... did their progress cause the sea to rise and swallow their cities... *sigh* using that data the sea levels have been rising for more than ~5000years.... i wonder how industrial lized they were back then?! hehe. again, good chance it's happening, but it's been happening much longer than we think looking at the big picture from about 10,000 years ago. what to do about it---- we have plenty of tech to curb our increasing CO2 emission rates, i say just increase ease of these techs to enter the market and if it's really good, like renewable diesel, to stop letting NIMBY crap(with-in most current laws) ruin our chances to make this country cleaner, energy independent and quite possibly cheaper to live in.
  18. is it aligned right? if it wobbles a tad i'm sure that'd cut the life of it.... or just buy one with a life time warranty on it
  19. maybe the 29 highway one has an "aftermarket wing" that's invisible a large, strong cardboard peice on the rear? just jokin.. maybe it's an upgraded wheel thing?
  20. happy birthday! one of the few of women on here do we even have an updated # of women on here?

    clicky they've been in talks to get one on a network over here... can't be the same, but hopefully they'd find some people to best replace hammond and the guys the best they could. it mentions the stig would still race the cars.
  23. with the 3.6 and n* engines with some 6speeds, YES!
  24. you tried tirerack.com?...hm looked.. and googled the brand.. i don't see anything unless miranda is a subset of another manufacturer...?
