What kind of grades did you get in geography? I think Isle of Man is somewhere in the UK. It's not in Greece, but Lesvos is. Incidentally, a lot of the Greek Islands have a popular use name and then their real Greek name. Lesvos or Lesbos = Mytilini Santorini = Thyra Corfu = Kerkyra The Greek Islands are beautiful if you get past the pushy Greeks. Once heard a joke told to me by a friend in Portland: Q: What's a Greek? A: A head-on collison between an Italian and a Jew. Pretty true.

You guys are MERCILESS.

$h!, Pantho, don't have that much capacity on photo service. So I say: R A T T L E S N A K E S

Late May? Let's see. Strike out South America because they are about to enter winter. Rio might still be hanging in there but it is dangerous. I've been and don't like the sensation of looking over your shoulders. I can tell you more if you want. Can you go to Europe? How about Greece? The weather is great at that time. Try the islands. Greek food in Greece sucks. I've had way better Greek food in the states and especially in Toronto. In the states? Hmm. How about South Padre? I will probably go next year in May when I finish a personal goal. Key West? I have been once while visiting Miami. Two years after college, a friend of mine and I drove this rental Ninety Eight Regency all the way down (175 miles)...and all the way back in ONE day because it was such a disappointment. Key West does NOT have a sandy beach. It was all pebbles. Hawaii...believe it or not, I'm from So Cal, and never been...don't want to go where its expensive and white people are referred to as "howlis" (Hawaiian derogative term) so f*c* those overweight ethnocentric Samoan islanders who hate us. Have fun! Wherever you choose!

You, personally, or your spending habits?

I don't but a future pursuit would be a wind instrument. I love jazz and could see learning the sax, trombone, etc. I really admire someone who can play a musical instrument since I can't.

My Regal is known as "The Pimpmobile." It is silver with a burgundy colored cloth interior. I'd give my right testicle (well, maybe not) for another burgundy interior, though I don't see that as happening any time soon. The color provides a comforting feeling from the inside of the car looking out and it's great to be driving it through forested areas on an overcast day waiting for a coffee place to crop up.

$h!, Pantho, I thought this was a thread about your homeland. Darn. BTW, is Prague worth visiting? How are the prices? How is the food? Are the locals friendly to tourists?

I like the motto: KISS - Keep it Simple, Stupid. (Not you or anyone on C&G)The other engines do not have the track record. We just don't know how they fare over the years. I, for one, don't like getting a new car that often...not where I choose to spend my money. Yes, Paulie, it comes up a lot, don't it? We (C&G) have a real division on this issue. We simply have to agree to disagree.

Good for you, Olds Guy. It's people like you and WEALTHY conspicuous consumers that keep the General humming. Not me with my longevity trip.

Did I see the word lesbians? Ooh, yeah, baby, I LOVE lesbians. Yeah, right. :AH-HA_wink:

Crocmeister, don't get me going. I'm with Flybry on this one. There is nothing nicer than getting into a car, day after day, year after year, knowing that it will crank over and take you where you need to go safely, economically in terms of consumption and ease of service and without any hassles whatsoever. For a quarter of a million miles and then some, if the oil is changed every 3000 miles or so. If it works, don't fix it. (In fact, the Series I to Series II transition with the attendant changes to the manifolds caused problems. I would even wait a couple of years for Series III drive-by-wire to be ascertained as being trouble-free rather than having purchased in 2004 when it came out). Leave the 3800 around for those of us who want it as a base engine. For you boys (and girls, such as newbie Lauren or our Stace) who need DOHC/VVT/HF and higher repair bills, go for it...check the option box for the other engines.
