If we had been discussing an octogon, would the suspension be for 8 days instead of 5?

I happen to really like the current VWs for thier content and pricing. The features are better than the Japanese rivals, and at least when you crash a VW, you have a chance of Surviving. Beetle, Jetta, Passat...all 5 star crash ratings. Sure, they may be less exciting than many other cars out there, but they are a lot better than any Japanese car this side of the Mazdas. I really have not heard anything bad about the reliability- all of ours were bullet-proof.

Dare I say - sexy even in drag? Wow. If it were RWD, I would consider this!

And herein lies the problem with the brainless eco-warriors - they do not think past their noses and are completely ignorant to the fact that what they have done is not only illegal but also HORRIBLE for the environment. For those of the world who may be as afflicted as the 3 am vandals, I will explain: 1. The police show up and take down a report. Cops in DC do not ride horses to take reports. Fuel used by big bad patrol cars of non-hybrid ilk that would normally have not been used in boucolic tree lined ultra liberal neighborhood is forever gone, and damage to environment is done. 2. A guy in a white explorer with PROGRESSIVE on the side or a truck carrying a Lizard and two Cavement will show up to inspect the truck and write a claim - more gas used and the environment damaged. Plus there is a chance the cavemen will eat the lizard - moving the talking gecko one step closer to extinction. 3. A glass company will now need to be summoned to replace the windows in the Hummer...most glass companies do not use a 48 MPG Prius (neither does anyone else, they barely get that) to haul glass around - so extra fuel and chemicals are being consumed to make the repairs - in case you libs were wondering - that is bad for the environment. Solvents and drying agents in the glues are bad - umkay? 4. Here is the clincher: The body damage that you inflicted on the truck will now need to be repaired in a paint shop which uses many solvents, degreasers, drying agents and other V.O.C. compounds on the truck, and it will be as good as new. However, the environment will be forever scarred by your actions and not those of some poor kid who bought his Hummer because the Prius you so wish him to have did not suit his needs or image. 5. Hummer boy gets revenge and has to pluck what is left of your little Prius out of his 38-inch tires when he finds out what you did to his truck without provocation. Your lead acid batteries explode in the wreck and leak into a nearby stream, destroying the ecosystem of said stream where one sickly little fish manages to survive only to be eaten by a bird of prey which dies, leading to it being eaten by a raccoon which dies, which is then eaten by a fox which dies, leading to the eventual poisoning death of your dog who nibbled on the fox's remains while you were on your hiking trip with the girl who smelled of Hemp and refused to shave due to the damage it inflicts on the culture of women - and who do you blame for all of this? GM - for building the Hummer in the first place in the name of corporate greed and a hatred of Mother Earth.

We had a Dodge Omni with a 550# woman in the front seat who always rode the brake pedal extension...and was so fat she made each class drive to drive thru's all over town. Her rolls actually sagged to the emegency brake handle...she would pull them up so that you could reach between the seats to set the brake when you parked and you prayed that her hands did not slip and that the fat would fall on your hand. She was shoehorned in the car, and I swear to you that she smelled of old beer left in the hot sun inside the car for a month! I always loved to give the car more gas whenever you would hear her brake bar squeek as she tried to slow you down. Memories. It was a grey Omni with the plastiglass Pentastar hood ornament shining on the hood - I always felt that it was way out of place on an Omni.

I can also say that on the Buick for '57 was the last year for forged a-arms...in '58 they were stamped steel.

boy - there are some young pups on here! Born in 1990's...and I was already in College. Ouch. That hurt my...everything! Now I am depressed!

"Family Affair" by Sly & the Family Stone Birthday "It Must Have Been Love" by Roxette - H.S. Graduation "On Bended Knee" by Boyz II Men - College Graduation "Too Close" by Next - Wedding day. Argh...not much to be proud of there.

Car and Driver bought one of those and immediately chastised GM for the "poor fit and finish as well as the hard and poorly grained interior plastics." Further they went after the UAW for putting it together like " a child's toy"! Cool model. I think I need one in Silver!

Isn't your car the exact same color combo as the car used in License to Drive? Is there a Sinatra tape stuck in the stereo? Cool car and interesting history.

Congrats on the HHR. It is one of the few vehicles on the road that snap my head around each time I see one. I love it, just wish it was one size larger. I want one! And great color choice...second for me only to Sunburst Orange.

I see some BMW 6-er in there as well...build it, sell it as a Saturn with the LS3 in it, and turn the entire automotive world on it's ear!

+ 1 - Politicians are nothing more than figureheads. I am personally tired of the lot of them and would like to make it a rule that you cannot serve for more than 8 years in ANY branch of government so that people are forced to have a fix on the real world BEFORE they become elitist pricks who govern from on high...

This is fake...Le Mans Blue is dead...this cannot be the new SS...paint is old color. Yes I am kidding and I cannot wait to see this car!!

Just thought I would show everyone on C & G the new avatar that everyone will want...yesterday I made Dodgefan sad with the burning Sebrings...so I hope this makes up for it! This is EXACTLY what needs to be done to every NEW Lexus and Toyota IMO...please note that it is brand new.

Buy up a bunch of bleach...cause if this is how you truly feel, you need to get those surrender flags as white as possible. And learn Spanish as well. Oh, and get rid of the car payments, 'cause when the Dems get control, your wages will be going to socializing medicine and funding the illegals!

DO NOT DO THIS! Many of you have seen my '57 Buick wagon...I love the car - HATE the financial distress it is causing me. Some quick figures: If you buy the car for say $7k...figure on another $10,500 in the least to get her perfect IF you do tons of work yourself. Always figure 1 1/2 times or more of the initial cost of the car - and we all know Corvette parts are cheap . Next: Figure you plan on storing it in a garage other than your own...now comes the calls of "get it out of here" or we are moving and need it cleaned out...that stress is even better. Wait until you are settled and can get one that is done. Buy the most car you can and as close to where you need it to be as possible.

May 29, 2007 in Los Angeles. Just found it when surfing around for disturbing images.

Sorry Dodgefan...wish it were a boatload of Toyotas...

Something tells me that there will be photos of a few extra Commanders and Dodge Rams with the same fate! Chysler_Fleeting.bmp

By the way, the silver paint and chrome wheels really make the Camo look nice! Whether you think it is a Xerox of the 72 Challenger or not or hate the b-pillar or not - it is still a sexy assed car - just like the Camaro will be. Cannot wait to see one in person...Sassy Grass or Plum crazy will look really nice on this car!

Seriously...if this does not bring a smile to your face - seek help! LMAO!!!

Not to steal a thread, but I liked the OLD B9 much more than the new one with the Chrysler front end. At least it was unique!

Do you have any shots of that '71? I think ours was a 71 or 72. Would love to see the old girl!

When Al-hole Gore does the following, I will listen to him: 1: Move out of the mansion with the carbon footprint of Maine, and moves into a tent to be closer to the Earth he INVENTED. 2: Stops flying on corporate jets - period. 3: Drops his secret service protection in the name of the environment; i.e. - 4 cars to take him everywhere with his entourage. 4: Sells or recycles everything that he has that is man made and emits CO and CO2 gasses. If he meets all of these requirements, I will still ignore him and his ilk, but he will be less of a hippocrit.
