  1. Pretty close for me... my birthday is 6/28/70, my father's 49th birthday was 10/29/69..
  2. Even more striking in the article was the fact that in May, Chrysler had the highest incentive of more than $6,000 on its Dodge Ram... they are stuck trying to move these obese dinosaurs in a world of $3.50 gas..
  3. Interesting..I see SixtyEight is quoted in the article on the kotv website..cool. KOTV article (w/ video)
  4. Mmmm...Camaro SS TDi...sweet. A turbodiesel Camaro would be a great, torquey, high-mileage commuter car..
  5. Interesting.. sharp car. I thought it was silver w/ custom wheels (the pic you had in your sig a while back..
  6. Haven't heard that one... funny. In a similar vein, I used to work with a guy that had a Chevette and always referred to it as 'the 'Vette'...
  7. I can't recall the last time I saw ANY Renault..
  8. Sometimes I miss my first car... my '84 Ford Escort diesel. 5drs, 5spd, 52 screaming horsepower.. I still have my first new car, my '87 Mustang GT, though.
  9. I'm practicing a lot of willpower now as far as cars... I just don't want a car payment, but I've got the new car itch.. maybe in 6-12 months. I'm also in the process of leaving a job that I've been at almost 5 years, leaving a stable, good salaried job for a contract that looks to be more fun (and pay more also).
  10. If such a weapon did exist, it would be amusing to use against the insurgents in Iraq..those Muslim guys are more homophobic than evangelical Christians..
  11. Just hope this '57 Plymouth has a benevolent spirit and isn't 'Christine'..
  12. I wonder when Chevy will have competing models...maybe bring back the Geo brand to go head-to-head with Scion..
  13. Speaking of older Corollas, anyone remember the Corolla FX hatchback in the '80s? I worked with a guy about 10 years ago that had a white one...I saw one this morning that was almost identical to his..in nice shape..
  14. I tend to squint my eyes, furrow my brow...maybe roll my tongue around inside my mouth. Another thing is I always tend to do things with my hands in meetings...play with coins, fiddle w/ my cell phone, take my watch on and off, play with a pen, etc..
  15. Ah, the folly of Sixty8s plan has come undone.. if he had taken a Camry or Prius instead, the trip would have gone smoothly and with no problems.. Remember--- Toyota-- Moving Forward <tm>
  16. Though we started the war on questionable pretenses, and took out Saddam, it's not our war anymore..it's a civil war within Iraq...the &#036;h&#33;es are fighting the Sunnis....let them fight amongst themselves... it's not worth the lives of our soldiers to try and settle disputes amongst a bunch of Muslim nutjobs that have been fighting amongst themselves for centuries.... The idea of trying to start a democracy in Iraq is noble, but futile...these are people that for generations have only known monarchies and dictatorships...again, NOT OUR PROBLEM.
  17. True, like the Cavalier..it was popular and a big seller for decades, but was still a &#036;h&#33;box. I guess this is 20th anniv. of the Corolla built in Canada?
  18. I saw an older Diahatsu Charade and an mid '80s Chevy Spectrum the other day...haven't seen either of those in eons..
  19. Agreed... it's good to acknowledge the past and be aware of it, but don't live in it... I like living in the here and now and looking forward to the future, not living in the past...
  20. As far as the Chevy large FWD/RWD issue is concerned, maybe they should keep the Impala FWD and call the Zeta RWD model Caprice...
  21. How would something that happened over 60 years ago have any relevance today? Similar kinds of things could be said about Mercedes, Opel, Mitsubishi, etc..
  22. I've never had a comment from others when I put $50+ in my Jeep, since more often than not the person at the pump next to me has a bigger SUV.. (Colorado has the highest concentration of SUVs anywhere, I think)..
  23. I've seen 140mph a few times...once in my M3, once as a passenger in my friend Steve's NSX, another time driving his NSX. I had my sister's Merc S-class up to 125 once, ran out of road.. I don't know how fast I've had my Mustang GT, the speedo only goes to 85.
