First, driving is NOT a privilege, but it is supposed to be a right. You have the right to travel. It is your lovely government that fooled everyone years ago by trading in your horse for a car with a bunch of limits, then legislated the horse into impracticality. Second, in the end, the government is going to dupe you into using self driving cars by making manual driving such a hassle that its not enjoyable or worthwhile. Writing laws so you always have to yield to the self-drivers. Programming traffic lights to turn green for self-drivers, etc. It once was a government run by the people, now its a government that controls the people, generally by slow deception. For example, the laws in the failed SOPA are going to get passed. If not as SOPA, than as PIPA or CISPA (which is currently succeeding) or they will be installed piece by piece as riders on budgets and other boring, everyday legislation. WRONG, Driving is a Privilage you EARN, No where in our laws does it say driving is a Right. This is just like Cell phones or the internet. Tax payers being taxed heavily have ended up subsidising the Internet for everyone at the schools and Libraries and then we end up with people saying it is a right, same with cell phones. People seem to think this is a right for everyone to have. Nothing here is a right, but a privilage you earn by working hard to afford the ability to drive. Sorry, but I have the Right to make more money than you and earn the privilage to drive nice expensive cars.

I have a couple 33 1/3 records left that I held onto due to it being my favorite band. I need to pull them out and look at them since It has been a long time. Wonder what shape they are in.

Total EXCITEMENT!!! I love this concept car, reminds me of growing up watching Speed Racer in the Mach 5.

Amazing that some people consider big iron like this to be collectible. Interesting foot note for the auto history books.

Low miles, truly a collectors and it reminds me of the ultimate in covette movies. "Corvette Summer" I love this body style so this is for sure a CHEERS!!!

Pretty cool the things I learn here about the car industry.

Saw a very cherry 88 suburban at the park and ride. I think the person must have just finished restoring it as the interior was spotless and the paintjob was perfect along with the underside being so clean you could eat off it. Had I think an 8 inch lift. was very nice. Also saw and talked with a guy who has a 93 GMC 2500 suburban. His was redone for total off roading and ease of cleaning out. The whole body inside and out was covered in LineX. He says he never has to worry about scratches or moldy carpet. He has rubber floor mats on top of the LineX sprayed on the inside. Even the door panels are covered in the stuff. Pretty amazing black Suburban with limo tinted windows. Two very nice and yet totally different rides.

Yea, caddy does love to pick up the cars from your work and return them. I do love the service I get from my dealership even though the building is way out of date.

Yup I have plenty of projects I would love to do but will never happen due o time, money and the sort. Dreams is what keeps us going.

That Isolation from society in a metal and plastic cocoon is what will be humanity's downfall If we stop interacting, then how does one learn to get along with others.

I see nothing wrong with GM hitting 30K for a base level ATS. With all the kids in the seattle area driving base BMW or MB, this will be just right for a parent to shell out 30K for a car for their HighSchool Rug rat brat. Mid 30's for a turbo 4 and then 40 for the v6 sounds about right. I cannot see the ATS hitting 50K unless it is a ATS-V edition.

Some Sweet rides no doubt!

I am shocked that many coffins on wheels have sold.

Sweet, wonder what little power rocket this will go on. Could they be bringing in a smaller $75k-$100K pocket rocket to expand their offerings to make more money?

PASS, Self driving cars are for morons who would rather play with stupid facebook the scourge of society. Driving is a privilage and they need to tighten up the requirements so that only good drivers get on the roads, those that can enjoy the experiance and safely drive about. People who do not want to think about driving, take the bus.

H'mmmm Music Chairs on the Engine types. Believe it when we really see it.

Hey Knightfan, see your personal message I sent you for my private email address. Ciao, Yes send me your resume and will see what I can do to help.

But one thing I will say the dealerships have going for it. GM warranty's their repairs for life or at least they do here in Seattle as I have had things fixed and had to go back later on and got it covered by GM. One thing I really hate is a Grease Monkey changing your oil and they over torque the drain plug and your left with leaky plug. I know the dealerships charge more, my caddy dealership charges $89 for a Mobil 1 synthetic change compared to the $69 at the local Grease Monkey. I do not mind paying the $20 more when they check out the rest of the car and let me know what other services might be coming up or if there is any other issues they came across. Yea the Grease monkey followes the schedules service and tells you what is due, but they are not trained in knowing your car like the dealership. If I can do the repair or tune up myself, great I get it done, but other wise take it to the dealership. I do wish the Dougs Cadillac dealership on Highway 99 would remodel or rebuild as the building shows its 60 heritage of when it was built. They really need to modernize.

Yea growing up I was always collecting the various colored 45's. I remember some would be bright green, red, orange.This I think was more a 70's early 80's thing. Along with their custom cover since they only had to cover 2 songs, one on each side so each side of the 45 cover was dedicated to that specific song by the artist.

In 2005 I sold all my 45's and spent the almost 1K I made on upgrading my Suburban.

I am a rare car Fan. I was born and raised here in Seattle and I HATE COFFEE!!! That is one way to not get me there. Yup StarBucks makes no money off me.

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?" "Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A man and his wife were traveling down the highway when they saw the lights of a patrol car behind them. When they pulled over, the patrol man came up to the window and said, "I am going to give you two tickets. One because you were speeding and one because you didn't have your seat belt fastened." The man said, "I did too have my seat belt fastened. I just loosened it when you came up to the car. The Patrol Man said to the man\'s wife, "I know he didn't have his seatbelt fastened. Isn't that right, lady?" She replied, "Well, officer. I learned a long time ago not to argue with my husband when he's drunk."
