Everyone check this out : http://www.cheersandgears.com/forums/index...mp;#entry237446 Then do the right thing and spread the word!

I'm home and have the time right now, so I thought I'd finally share this since it's still effecting me. On my way home from Detroit last Thursday after my English Placement Exam, I got to Chelsea on I-94 when my car died. Now, it wouldn't be quite so bad if this was the first time that it had happened, but it was about the fifth time that it's done it to me, and what pissed me off above everything else is that what the dealership thought the problem was turned out not the be the problem at all. I maintain that it's the fuel pump. On a long drive (I got to Detroit fine) it just eventually fizzles out on the Interstate. It gives a hiccup, and then the car just starts…

Also, on the bright side, I finally have about half of my stuff moved into my dorm room at school. Thank God I won't have to commute all of the time. I also have my temporary parking permit (cuz I don't have my car). And, so far, I just know that although I'm going to want to scream, it will be a most worthwhile experience going to school and pursuing my career!!!

So after looking for work since September I've finally got a part-time job delivering for a local Pizza place. I have to say, so far I like it. I mean, I get paid to drive...pretty sweet. Anyway, I decided to to use the Shadow since the Prizm was blocked by another car and I don't really want to use the Intrepid for this kinda thing. So I get to work and start making deliveries, I'd made my first 2 and then was asked to deliver two more orders. Up until now the cars had been running fine...a little noisy (it now has an exhaust leak, after 18 years with it's original exhaust system), but otherwise fine. My first delivery took me to Market Basket, where customer service …

In case anyone has been wondering why I have been silently absent during what is probably the most exciting time in the auto industry, my excuse is that I am in Rome and have had no internet access for the last week. In fact, today was the first chance I've had to log onto C&G and I was like a baby in a candy store on Christmas seeing all these auto show unveilings and updated models for 2008. I'll be here for the next four months, so depending on the wireless connection here in studio, I may not be posting much. But I'll try to keep you guys updated with some of the things I experience and post some pics every once in a while. So for now, here's a few of the best…

http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3013016&page=1 Unbelievable. I wonder if they know that it was the Fuhrer himself who started VW, as the "people's car"? Ah, a car for the master race, no wonder VW's are so good. That and most Jewish people to this day will still not drive Mercedes and BMW's either, because these companies used slave laborers from the death camps. I don't even know how much of the above article is true, as it's widely known that the Germans stole Opel from GM during WWII, but were made to give it back after the war.

I had a really odd (to me at least) dream a couple of nights ago. I met BV! I have no idea where it came from because usually my dreams have something that relates to something that I know of or have experienced recently or in the past, and here I am, hanging out and getting along with someone that I have never even me before. Anyway, just thought I'd share this bizarre occurence with the rest of you (rest being as in not myself only). Anyone else have some totally random dream that one doesn't know where it came from?

Got two copies of the same one today - looks very official. Just a heads-up.

The following is part of what greeted friends/family in an Email sent about 8:15p (central) on January 6, 2003: Hard to believe it has been 4 years since that Email was sent. A lot has changed (including Joy's boyfriend becoming her husband) ... some things have stayed the same. In a couple months (March), it'll be 20 years since my second open heart surgery, which was 9 months before my then-best-friend died 2 days after Christmas of an asthma attack. And, later this year, it'll be 30 years since my first open heart surgery. Thanks to (and despite) these anniversaries, life continues to be good ! For 2007, I'll be planning a road trip or two and perhaps doing ano…

Mmmhmm. Driving down the road, knowing the speed limit is 45, I'm going approximately the limit. Well, I know that the road is about to reduce speed to 35 MPH, and I look down to see that I'm going 47. Well, I depress the clutch and downshift to fourth to slow down some. While doing so, I look up to see the "Speed Limit Reduced to 35 MPH" sign. Now I've slowed down a bit, but not enough, so I downshift to third. Just as I downshift I see a policeman on the side of the road, right after the 35 MPH sign. Well, needless to say, he pulls out and by the time he got behind me I was going less than 35 to slow down for railroad tracks. He flips the lights and that's all she wrote…

It all started after I got back to work after going home for Christmas, my family lives in Detroit and I am a Coast Guard flight engineer in Kodiak Alaska. Well some one on one of my 6 (not joking) connecting flights gave me a cold. So 2 days after I got home the cold got bad so I went to go take some NyQuil, I poured 2 tablespoons into that plastic cup thingy and tried to drink it. Now is where the fun starts I have the NyQuil in my mouth and as luck would have it I cough unleashing a spray of red liquid out my nose all over my kitchen, it looked like I got shot in the back of the head. Then it got worse, I inhaled the rest on the NyQuil right into my lungs, so now im st…

Alot of you guys have really cool signatures at the bottom of your threads. How do I get one of those? Thanks.

This could be in "Other Guys," but I think that forum's better for discussion on news, not on opinions. Looking at the things Cadillac is coming out with, with exaggeration on the NG CTS, is it a stretch to say that BMW could easily start losing ground to its competitors? Okay, so the CTS is just one model, but figure in the coupe and wagon that will come out after the sedan and you're going to get a great vehicle. We all know the sedan will be sexy just judging by what we've seen of it, inside and out. It's got everything that Cadillac's Art and Science theme had and more. A very crisp design, the NG CTS could very easily steal many consumers from BMW's band of buyers. …

Well it''s an abnormally warm--hell it's a record-breaking warm Saturday. The sun is out and it's nice as hell. It's strange and not right but I think it's a great opportunity to give the cars a wash and vacuum them out. Maybe I'll take some picks when I'm done Anyone else got the same thing in mind?

The road to hell is paved...and striped and called Kennedy Blvd. in Tampa. Swerved to avoid a Galant who herself swerved to avoid some baglady who felt like walking out in front of traffic and I caught a ridiculously raised manhole cover. Sure enough, it put a whole in my oil pan. Bad news: it'll cost £1100 at the shop in labor alone. Good news: pan itself, I can get for £40. I'm going to attempt to do this with a friend of mine over several days next week (I have a Monte Carlo rental now). Sigh...

Recently I have come into posession of a Nintendo Entertainment System circa 1985. I've wanted one for a while, but couldn't justify the $60+s&h for one on eBay. I found a used game place that had one so I traded my N64 (hasn't been used regularly in years) and some games for it. I've got Super Mario Bros. 1 and 3 as well as Duck Hunt. OH MY GOD THESE THINGS ARE AWESOME! (Sorry, I just went reg on you guys) I didn't have one when I was younger (went straight into the Sega Genesis) so I didn't get to spend a lot of time with the NES back in the day and am making up for it now. My one problem (other than sucking at the games) is the fact that I cannot find Zelda a…

Since Camino LS6's thread referred to new cars and some of us have been mentioning used car preferences in that thread I thought this would be a fun thread for the used car shopper in us all.

It also can't have any large amounts of body damage bigger than a ding. Engine must be clean. No oil or dirt on the engine. Not only is it a sign of engien problems but also of poor maintenance. The interior must be in good shape, nothing broken and everything must work. It also must attractively designed. Materials are …

Changing Minds: A Detroit News Series Part One: http://detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?A...382/1148/AUTO01 They are dramatically changing the way they do business by cutting costs, restructuring operations and pouring resources into new products. But Detroit's troubled Big Three automakers have an equally tough task ahead in changing the minds and attitudes of American consumers. Concerns about quality and reliability are the prime reasons that consumers avoid vehicles built by General Motors Corp., Ford Motor Co. and the Chrysler Group of DaimlerChrysler AG, according to an exclusive study conducted for The Detroit News by J.D.

Well y'all, its two weeks to go till I'm a dad. Right now the wife is in the hospital being monitored due to her blood pressure being higher than "normal" They're also looking at her urine to make sure she's not leaching protien (which means probably toximia (sp?), if they find an excessive amount, they're going to induce, if not, she'll come home tomorrow and we'll have to wait for the next thing to happen. Right now I'm just at home about to catch some Z's with hopes of going to work tomorrow and having her come home tomorrow night. I'll try to keep everyone on here informed, and if any of you are religious, the prayers wouldn't hurt. But for right now, that's abou…

It is starting to look pretty good and this show is absolutely unbelieveable. The price is worth it as well. Who here on the forums is going? I am going on the first day, the 13th. I am just too excited for it that I can't wait one extra day lol.

I looked up the "Special T" T-Type and all I found was that it had a Grand National exterior with a T-Type interior. Anyone know anymore about this like production numbers or what colours they came in. That Regal T-Type outside of my work looks to fit that description except for the fact that it is grey. I believe the guy may know what he has got because it has a T-Type dash pad cover and a sticker on the window with the National 6 logo.

Anyone know what the deal is? I always slide in the back door by putting in the exact URL and changing my search option for the vehicle. It worked just last night and now today I go to search my computer tells me its not loading for various reasons. Have they locked or changed the URL? Or our the doing maintance? Or I am out'a luck? Anyone know? Thanks for any help.

"Dashboard" very small link in the middle of the page. i can't stop listening to it. can't wait for the new album in "early 2007" anyone else like Modest Mouse? like this song? listen to it on http://www.modestmousemusic.com/ first if you must.

I've been looking at them the last few weeks..and it's come down to two. I pod nano Sandisk Sensa (video ot stick) I need it more for the music than anything, so the extra stuff is no big deal. I'm leaning a bit toward the sensa because it has a FM tuner, and you can add memory.... Opinions? Ideas? Yours on fire right now? I'm listening...i need to learn more....

There is an 86 or 87 T-Type Regal sitting outside of my work. It has been there for 3 weeks or so. I don't know what is going on with it but I keep on telling the service manager not to junk it. It is quite nice but needs a little TLC. It is a T-Type because it is engraved into the dash. It also has the hood bulge and the Grand National rims. How much are these worth now when restored and would they be worth restoring? HERE ARE THE PICTURES FINALLY. Sorry about the focus. I was rushing so I wouldn't be late to work.

Hey, if anyone here wants a userbar sig like mine, Northstar's, or NOS's, I'll be happy to make you one. Just leave your request here and I'll try my best to get back with you. Just don't swamp me. Okay, I'll just need the following info from you: Any color scheme you want. (Mine is yellow and black, obviously, for obvious reasons.) If you want a custom userbar with your username and a logo (see below) to start out your sig. If so, please leave the image you want to use as your logo. If you want a [insert Make Here] Driver bar after that. Specify the make of your car. Or, instead, you could specify the model. Any other userbars you want in the sig (I.E. C&G Club…

Ok, me first: 1. I went to the gym last night - LOSE at least 10, even 15, pounds and firm up 2. Better management of generalized anxiety which at times rears its ugly head Others which will have to happen and are sort of inevitable: 3. Modified career change, and as a result of 3. 4. Relocation

1955 Olds Eighty-Eight Holiday - $8900 (a bit too much, IMO) 1963 Imperial Crown Coupe - $2450 1965 Fleetwood w/35,000 - $7995 1967 Buick LeSabre - $2450 The Buick was the value of the group it seemed. You could tell the Imperial was a Chrysler (bad weatherstripping) and all the awesome electronic gizmos like the push-button transmission scare me on a car this old. In contrast, the Buick had a regular bench, manual windows, manual locks, but air conditioning. Even had the little tissue box holder. I really, really love the LeSabre and the price is quite nice. Just wanted to share.

I've posted a link to a new slideshow in the marketplace. http://www.cheersandgears.com/forums/index...?showtopic=7616

ENGINE - V10 kinda interesting, no where else to put it either

And finally, a picture of Reg's Aztek: Okay, well that's not really my car (boy though do I wish it were back from the body shop already). Cool photoshop done by a poster over at skyroadsterforums. In the post he even gives a link on how to do the above chopping; check it out here if you're interseted in learning for yourself: http://www.skyroadster.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10982 And while shopping the other day at an outlet mall in central NJ, I found a sunshade at the Disney Store Outlet that has Lightning McQueen's eyes so that your real car can look somewhat like a Pixar-inspired CARS car! And at a clearnace price of $4.99 too!

Here is an interesting typo in the Toronto Star. Read the highlighted and lets see what you think.

Look, I know it's uber cool and all, but occasionally I do like to swap out my sig. Ummm, I'm not finding the box that allows that anymore- where is it?

We already had a thread for the most overrated cars, so I thought we should also have a thread for the very underrated or forgotten cars and companies thoughout history. Personally, its Pierce-Arrow that gets the gold star for the greatest forgotten US automotive treasure. The cars equaled the prestige of Rolls-Royce and Duesenberg and were popular with foreign royalty (the rulers of Japan, Persia, Saudi Arabia and Belgium owned Pierce-Arrows). But, like so many other car companies, it disappeared during the Depression.

I was planning on doing nothing tonight, then got kidnapped for a few hours. I only had half of a Crown and Coke.

I am open to anything decent - from "Casino Royale" to "Charlotte's Web" to "Babel." Let me know your opinions on what some good flicks are...and what they might be about? Thanks.

Happy New Year from the east coast! And I actually got the first post this year: http://www.cheersandgears.com/forums/index...view=getnewpost

-Variance January 1, 2007 Greetings and happy new year to all of the Cheers and Gears members! This is sure to be a fresh new year with fresh new cars and fresh new trademarks to be posted up for us to speculate on the future offerings of many automotive brands. And what better way is there to celebrate a new year than with a new Feature Article? Welcome to C&G’s Registry Rundown, a new monthly Feature Article rife with information and speculation. Here, yours truly will be reporting on the goings on within the records of the United States Patent and Trademark Office, bringing you the newest trademark applications made by auto manufacturers. Newly filed application…

It’s that time of year again! Here’s the 5th anniversary edition of the list of the best and worst of all things C&G and GM over the past year. Before we all relive these moments, here’s a mention of some of the more significant events that occurred in the outside world: The war in Iraq sadly continued to plod on without any seeming kind of direction. In the U.S. elections, control of the Senate turned on the word “macaca” along with a return to the concept of checks and balances in government. The year ended with the passing of the 38th President and the execution of a ruthless dictator. On this board, the year began with the shocking passing of Chief. GM intr…

You usually don't see them like this anymore: 1983 Buick Regal Like just about everyone else here, I have a soft spot for the G-body coupes of the 80s - especially the Cutlass and Regal. We owned a 1984 Cutlass Calais, a 1985 Cutlass Supreme, a 1981 Regal, and a 1986 GP. If I didn't live in salt-n-sand country I'd pick this thing up right now.

Have you guys noticed a similarity to the Chrysler Airflite and Chrysler Nassau concepts? The form and the grille position and rear end seem to have common similarites.

Well I'm in situation where I need to buy a new one soon. I have seen or shot almost any kind of gun you can think of so I have lost interest so I enlisted you guys to help me? Rules: Pistol Price limit no more than $2500 Black or "blued" NO desert Eagles or .22's. No Glocks Because they are pure and utter rubbish. any one want to suggest a gun for me?

Well With it being what like 50 out today in Michigan at the end of December me and a couple guys dusted of the cycles and cruised around. has any one else notice unusually warm days? Collision shops and Heating company's are probably going to go out of business soon. But I don't mind it that much. Your opinion?

Oh man, I just watched dat $h! on my pc. Dat $h! is crazy!

I posted this in another thread: Then realized that Mr. Opportunity looks like my freaking insurance agent, who is almost as big of a douchebag. It took a little work, but here is a pic for comparison.

I've wasted about 8 hours of my life trying to create a slideshow only to have the damn thing fail and disappear after each round of hours of work. WTF is wrong with that site?

With 2007 just a few days away, I thought I'd end 2006 on a good note with you guys. It's cheesy and simple... So don't hate me for that. I'd like to start a toast to the new year and all the happenings of the current one. Just pick a drink, mix it, and enjoy. To Chris, for reasons better left unmentioned. To Fly, for keeping his composure after the attack of Toyotas he endured. To Z, for all his work on making sure C&G doesn't suffer another crash. To NOS, for jumping out of all those birthday cakes. And to GMtruckguy, for his enthusiasm in Saturn... he bought two of them after all. To Reg, for never giving Honda... or Acura a chance. To Camino, fo…

Long-term project

Happy New Year, gang. I hope that this next year is a good one. I've had worse ones, but I hope the next one is better. I will be making some very big changes, so I am a little anxious about them. At any rate, what are your plans for the holiday weekend? I have NONE...and that's ok. I might head up to some hot springs if the roads are ok....which I didn't do when I turned in my last final in mid-December. It will be nice to have no plans, for a change. What about you?

Just food for thought, this si not exactly very scientific but it does prove a point: why bother with B-pillars when push come to shove they're all pretty weak... I do not beleive a B-pillar saves lives more often than sheer luck does. http://www.crashanalysis.com/crash_test.htm

Such as : Using "no-reserve" auctions to sell off the fleet A change of occupation Re-location Having just one vehicle for a while Selling off my garage full of tools and equiptment Other radical notions are crossing my mind as well.

Okay, it goes like this. I just got on the computer, and got to C&G into the lounge, and I happened to sneeze because right now my nose is running, sinuses are draining and blowing my nose happened to be the least of my concerns as a result of it. ~*Surprise!*~ I'm bleeding! From both barrels for a double treat. Ugh. I blame having to fuss over my nose due to the drainage, the dry weather, and possible veins too close to the surface. I mean, it's soo easy for me to bleed in the winter time and it bugs the crap out of me. My junior year in high school I did a report on hemophilia in my advanced biology class and consequently, my peers had to give me a hard time…

Yes, I'm starting this thread once again, just like each year before it. As of yesterday, the 27th, was my 3 year anniversary of joining C&G. Its sad that I remember it, but it's fun. It's hard to believe I've been here this long. There have been times when I never wanted to come back to C&G and times where I never wanted to get off the internet because of it. That and usually I'm not very committed when it comes to online forums. This is the only forum that I've been continuously active on for this long. Usually, I forget about a forums after about a month. So it's been a refreshing ride. Hopefully, it won't come to an end anytime soon. I would like to eventua…

I found this old 1989 Dakota Sport in an empty lot with some other junkers, Golf, 2 Aerostars, and a 94 Cavalier with a huge whole in the drivers door. I actually went to check out the Cavalier but this. It is in bad shape but the body isnt too bad on it. It has rust on the rockers (not eating away) and the paint is peeling but on trucks, most stuff is replaceable compared to a unibody. The biggest thing that concerns me is the crack in the windshield and I dont know how it runs. However, I have always loved these Dakotas.

So my aunt came over for Christmas as always, but she wasn't sure she was going to make it on Christmas Eve, as her Subaru Outback wouldn't start, but finally turned over after an hour's delay. She drove it here and it made it, and then it started fine on Christmas and the day after, when we took it to the dealer's service department. While it was in service being looked at, we went out looking. First up was the CR-V. For some reason she thinks their cute, and I guess we all have our own opinions. She thought it was what she really wanted, and had high hopes. She picked out one she liked (sticker was $28.5k) and we were on our way. We both thought it was terrible. Harsh…

LOS ANGELES - Gerald R.

He was 93. “My family joins me in sharing the difficult news that Gerald Ford, our beloved husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather has passed away at 93 years of age,” Mrs. Ford said in a brief statement issued from her husband’s office in Rancho Mirage. “His life was filled with love of God, his family and his country.” The statement did not say where Ford died or list a cause of death.

Then, after a deadline, we vote! The winner could be posted on the homepage if wanted. Now, nobody should make fun of other's chops they think are good (if they submit.) I have been through plenty of tough criticism and rude comments, and here is where it is especialy unwanted. Any crude or inappropriate comments should not be posted here.

As my mom walked in the living room last night, she says "Cory, your dad blew my car up." I say "What?!" She tells me "I hope you don't plan on going anywhere tonight, as the Sunfire's blocking the driveway." I didn't really believe her at first, but upon looking out, there it is. It couldn't make it the last 40 feet or so to her spot in the driveway. All, night, I heard my parents talking about it. My mom asking my dad what's wrong with it...

First off, like the new look for C&G....now onto the story... Tonight while waiting to turn into a Dunkin Donuts, sitting in the left lane on the northbound side of a road called Central Park Avenue, I was at a full stop with my left indicator on, sitting behind a Saturn L-Series also with it's left signal on. While we were both waiting to turn into Dunkin, cars coming southbound in both lanes, a Chevy Express van sideswipes my Riviera's left rear quarter panel and wheel well, WHILE going into oncoming traffic in the southbound lanes, to cut me and the Saturn off. After a moment of shock, my girlfriend shouts at me to catch him and get his plate #, I pull up behin…

Thought I'd start a thread in the spirit of the old Cheers and Jeers threads that looked back at the previous year here at the forums. 2006 may not have been a great year in reality (do we really have to go there?) and here at the forums (server problems among others), but there are still plenty of good things we can highlight. For example, here's one of the first designs posted in the Member Showcase section for 2006 (that have image links that still work, anyway) by budding C&G designer, member, and Designer's Guild Founding Member, American_Revolution2005 (this actually predicted the 2008 Magnum refresh in many ways -- way to go, man). So start posting about 20…

I wanted to know if a blank key or set of keys could be made by GM to look like stock Chevrolet keys? I want to trick my grandpa when he opens up his present into thinking he got a new Impala. My whole family is in on it if we can do it and we will tell him we leased it for him. It is cruel, I know, but he loves practical jokes. Can this be done?????

I have no idea how much this costs. Probably alot. Like, more than Camino wants for his cars I'd assume... Phoenix 1000 @ US Subs Think about it - mess with Fillipino pirates, provoke the Russian Navy - all good potential fun.

I have to comment on your sig, that Malibu has that hard to get, "just-right" look every hot rodder hopes for. Really sweet! Any backstory on the car?

Yahoo Article story is self explanatory.

Well, here I am packing for tomorrow afternoon's flight up to PDX. I will stick around Friday night and all of Monday, the 25th, before flying out. Sat and Sun will probably be a jaunt to Seattle, overnighting up there. I can only stay near my Mom for very limited doses as she is both a pain-in-the-ass and stupid...sorry. (I was told, "I hope you bring up some nice clothes and go to Mass on Christmas day." ) I can't believe that someone who can't do ANYTHING would need to instruct me...I have no problem with the Mass part, as I will probably find a parish to duck into and go to church, but the apparel part is out of control. At any rate, how will you be spending th…
