    I'd fly Giant Airways... :AH-HA_wink: edit: is there some way I can sign up for a frequent flyer program or something?
  3. Hi!

    Drew Dowdell replied to DenCo's topic in The Lounge
    fixed
  4. Empowah, Real player is real $h!.... it's one of the worst pieces of bloatware out there. Use Winamp or iTunes. edit: and in Firefox, learn to use the Ctrl-T
  5. Oh, that's not what you ment is it?
  6. I mean seriously O.C. is there a GM car out there that you can't find some oddball thing to nitpick about that is often duplicated or similar in foriegn vehicles?
  7. I think the proper word is unoffensive....

    I already have first dibs
  9. raise your claw if you're hands are cramped from grabbing onto said handles.
  10. how many beers did you have exactly?
  11. aw come on.... put a turboed DI HF 2.8 in there and you can call it the killer.. ;-)

    what he said...
  13. Kia... Nissan called and they want their Altima and Maxima back.... toyota mentioned something about returning their old Camry and Corolla... and VW called again about the Passat....

    you take the taller one, I'll take the shorter one....
  15. old school? Like the '07 Camry? 3 dials, a radio, two vents, stacked on each other..... like the Mazda 6?
  16. that's only 1mpg difference from my car's rating.
  17. The thing is.... that's pretty much spot on. You *might* get 1 or 2 mpg better.... tops.... if you're gentle. I get that rating exactly in my '04 3.6 Auto. edit: Oh.. congrats and welcome to the club.
  18. Kappa Caddy now! Call it the KLR
  19. aww... why not all three? That'd be the perfect trifecta. It really can't cost all that much more if the technology is already developed. Fuel = E85 At stop = engine off Accelerating = All 8 cylinders on with hybrid assist Decelerating = 4 cylinders off with hybrid regen highway cruise = 4 cylinders off with hybrid assist You could see an avalanche with a fuel mileage of around 25mpg and a gasoline mileage in the 40s when using E85!
  20. Honda's had one good looking car. Great? no, good? yes.
  21. as was mentioned... the DIC is pop up. geez this thread is going downhill fast
  22. especially in black
  23. different class man. try this: A Chrysler 5th Ave gets XX and a Chrysler 300c gets xx. How about one of the oldest cars on the road out there now. The Town Car... it's mileage hasn't gone up that much and now then only sell a fraction of what they used to. The towncar has been replaced by the Navigator as Lincoln's top seller... and it gets about the same as that old towncar from 20 years ago.
  24. sometime next year, I'll be able to trade my current Avalanche in on a 2008 Avalanche with a hybrid, AFM, E85 setup? I could drive around all day with the A/C on and the windows down and still use less gasoline than a Prius!
