  1. The very idea that you say that the 66 Toronado didn't have torque steer is just plain laughable!
  2. Interestingly, both brands were once owned by the same company.
  3. The nose is about the same height as the nose on a Trailblazer
  4. I'm in DC all this week. I arrived on Sunday. In the two and a half days I've been here I've seen 6 new Toyota Avalon taxi cabs in black or beige just in the small 10 block radius I'm staying. They haven't been beat to hell and back...... yet......but I wonder how they'll hold up over time. Interestingly, DC must not have the age or mileage laws for Taxi cabs as NYC because I have seen a number of B-body wagons from all 3 divisions that made them still chugging about. On my way back from lunch, I was passed by a Custom Bruiser in surprisingly good condition for any 14 year old car, much less a cab.
  5. She's a lady. Wooh ohh oh She's a lady.

    Actually, I think it was Lexus's way of making a V12 sedan without spending the development money on making a V12. The equation works thusly: existing V8 + (Pruis hybrid parts * 1.75) = V12
  7. buy as much ram and the fastest RPM hard drive you can....
  8. The implication that we'll somehow be worse off by electing a Democrat to the office is offensive to all senses of reason. Even a cursory review of W's actions in office should make that clear. The current President makes Carter look effective, Ford look competent, and Nixon look open and honest.

  11. "Democracy will eventually do the right thing.... after it's tried everything else" yes it's paraphrased....
  12. you obviously don't visit us very often....
  13. Remind me again who pushed the imigration bill and the medicare prescription drug plan......
  14. Then you're probably also unwilling to buy a tarted up Highlander or Odyssey.... which is just fine with GM because you'll probably end up with a ToroNox or Blazenvoy anyway.
  15. It's the Oz version.... duh.
  16. Gosh the refineries just came online give it a moment
  17. That's what we're here for.... all for one and one for all.
