Lincoln Wants More Standalone Dealers

With cars, I do like dark metallic gray on luxury sedans and sports cars, esp with red interiors (I love red interiors—so uncommon today)… but those light battleship grays and  matte grays…ugh.  

Europeans have for a long time, used concrete to build their homes. Not just the foundations that we do here in North America, but the whole house.  Dare I say for thousands of years?   But even in modern times, Europe (Greece as the next sentences is anecdotal) has used concrete for their foundations and walls as long as I remember going back to the late 1970s.   The concrete is bare inside and out as I recall. Maybe today they paint?  And these concrete homes are not mansions for rich peoples, but homes for everyday peoples. I dont mind concrete for the whole house.  If I was living in Europe that is.  Here in North America I prefer my wood framed and drywall  homes.  In a modern mansion?  Concrete?  Id say maybe.  Depending on how the home is styled I guess.  But I dont like big mansions either though.  I find huge homes useless and lifeless.  I would have a huuuuuuuuge garage though.  And the garage would be fully concrete. So there is that. I grew up with a mother that hated colour in her home. White walls. White appliances. White dishes. But flower patterned sofas and chairs. French Provincial style  on top of that.  And flowers everywhere. The colour in our home came from real plants.   I hate white walls.  I hate flowers in the house and I LOATHE French Provincial anything and everything...        I hate grey on anything. Especially cars.  But my basement walls where my TV resides, the colour of the walls are dark grey where the TV is and the other three sides are a lighter shade of grey.  I hate grey rainy weather.   Grey is such a depressing colour. Black on walls?  Ill pass.  But as an accent somewhere I wouldnt mind.  

I am trying to find out Pontiac dealer 627 in zone 14.  Nebraska and Iowa. 

One of my sister’s friends has gone overboard with white.  Both her Michigan lake house and Florida house are all white inside, walls, kitchen, white carpet, white furniture, white trim, white dog…a bit much IMO.  

Big time concrete was the thing back in the seventies when the brutalist movement was in full force.  Certain buildings at University of Washington, UCSD, and the Salk Institute are like that, and I can't stand them.  It was even in the "Bambi and Thumper" custom house in the desert, where James Bond battled them! In more recent years, it's more of an L.A. thing to have nasty concrete walls in high end modern houses. Having white wall paint doesn't bother me too much.  I have a thing against white mill work in kitchens, and even in bathrooms, because it reminds me of the very few negative things about Atlanta.  I never leafed through a Southern Living magazine, but I've seen their covers in the supermarket, and it seemed like the locals aspired to that look and all that goes with it.
