  1. Why would you not allow usage on the Vibe? Its the Vibe; who cares?
  2. You know its cold in Canada when you see a Chrysler Intrepid, two Buick Allures, an Acura EL, new Sunfire sedan, Pursuit, an Echo three-door, and a SWB Pontiac SV6 in Florida in the past few days. Welcome, you strange people with strange cars!
  3. I still don't think Chrysler has figured out how to price/equip cars properly along divisional lines. A $2k cheaper Charger has more/better equipment than a 300 base? C'mon...
  4. Like yourself. You brought up Satty's car for absolutely no reason. C'mon. Think about it.
  5. I put the Imperial in a FUBU bag along with a bunch of poseur junk. And the Toyota is a double-bagger.
  6. Well, I think a 15 year-old Cutlass Ciera has fewer problems than a new car from Germany...
  7. That striping is horrible on this car. Man. Sad.
  8. Mostly bottled, not out of prissiness but simply because our city water tastes funky. At our old house, my father (being the ex-pipefitter he is) installed an elaborate filtration system from our well. That water I'd drink - that's right - well water before city water. Sad isn't it?
  9. I guess they didn't 'gotta-have' air con.
  10. If this were true, then the Honda Civic, BMW X3, and Ford Freestar at Tampa last year would all have been sad.
  11. I keep my set tuned to ESPN 8: The Ocho.
  12. What Mustang said. Back in the late-80s when it was close to a reality? Sure, since everyone was going FWD then. But no, not today.
  13. Chicken, I suggest you edit your posts instead of responding five different times.
  14. Oh, sweet Jesus. That is the single crappiest argument I've ever heard. Please, Sixty, don't ever, ever go to small claims court. Judge Judy would tear you a new one.
  15. Wow. No one ever bitch about the quality of wood in any other car again.
  16. Dear God don't import the old Statesman with tacky semi-Buick-derived cues like the Royaum.
  17. I think this thread can be used in a court of law to prove mental retardation.
  18. Camaros suck. Just kidding.
  19. Sciguy, I must say, I laughed at that simply because you said more or less what I've always thought. :P Needless to say, you're 100% correct in both your comments and my criticism of Airbus/EADS. My comment was sarcastic in light of the huge irony surrounding the fact that Boeing gets called out with favorable government deals, something EADS and Airbus gets all the time. Airbus criticizes Boeing for lucrative NASA and DoD contracts yet EADS is a major cornerstone of the European Space Agency and builds the majority of the European military air inventory through Airbus, Eurocopter, and its Eurofighter consortiums. Airbus gets tremendous help from the launch aid they recieve that helps recover the costs involved in ramping up a new aircraft. American contractors typically don't recieve direct launch aid. Simple facts: there are about 3,850 Airbus jets in service vs. over 4,000 737s. Even the 2005 'outperformace' by Airbus is misleading has Boeing still had more firm orders that year (825 vs 687). Many, many airlines operate all-Boeing fleets and they are highly regarded as being superior aircraft by airline captains. Interestingly, Japan is Boeing-dominated with over 90% of the nation's jetliner fleet being Boeing aircraft. Airbus has an extrodinarily difficult time in that market (in 2005, they recieved one firm order for one freighter) and Japan's two major airlines (JAL and ANA) operate a handful of older Airbus jets. In fact, ANA is transitioning to an all-Boeing fleet. Also, in a nation dominated by shorter-range, high capacity jets (747SPs), its very odd that not one order or option has been placed by any Japanese air carrier for the A380. In any case, my loyalty is with Boeing. To clarify any misconceptions. ;)
  20. Difference is, that's a voluntary choice. I don't care, its still creepy to do that.
  21. Happy birthday, Croc! GM has a present for you - a six-speed, V8, RWD, BOF, two-door hardtop!
  22. Are you implying Camry drivers are flaccid?
  23. I was referring to the traditional midsize cloud cars.
  24. My Controls Edit Signature Click the IMG button on the tool bar and copy/paste the URL of the photo you want to have. If its a photo from your harddrive and not already on the 'net, the use a photo hosting site like ImageShack to host it.
  25. I reiterate, Toyota is not a person. That is all that was asked.
