Relatives in town. Came to visit with a rental from Hertz. New Chevy Bolt! 38 dollars a day evidently.

Telepathy at work. I will be getting a rental car next week. I opted for the "surprise" deal and it said that it could be an EV. I'm questioning the range and was told it can vary. I might even get a regular car, which is what happens most of the time. As long as it has a trunk that can be covered. This might be an adventure. I have no clue where to power a potential EV rental. As for the Bolt, I prefer the name to Volt, which is too obvious. It's not too bad looking from the photos. I especially like the dash and how everything sits under the cowl. - - - - - I don't think they were prescient when Buick released the Electra nameplate. Some cars have been named after Greek mythological figures. However, Electra is a name that should definitely come back when Buick brings an EV CAR back into their portfolio.

With regards to the 82 Grand Prix, here is my idea of the ideal 82 GM midsize.

I like this Pontiac drag car build

Thank you everyone for your birthday wishes. It is appreciated. I thought I would share something that arrived in my driveway in July. It was bought in July after the demise of the black Toronado in May 2021. I have not said anything because I have been working on things to get to registered and in proper working order. It is from Canada. I bought it outside the United States and had paid for importation and paperwork. That is why there has been a delay of me posting videos and articles. I thought you might wanted to see the new Toronado.

If you're looking for other specific makes/models from GM, Ford, or Chrysler. I was gifted an extensive collection a while back that spans decades. I'm planning on selling off most of it. Happy Birthday @NINETY EIGHT REGENCY

Haven't been around much lately, been a busy summer...hating the constant rain..been so wet the last 3-4 months. Is this Cleveland or Seattle? Moved into the new house on June 22, been going back and forth working on the old house, moving out everything, unpacking boxes, busy with work since then...old house almost ready--should be on the MLS in the next week finally. Getting new carpet this week. Had the inside and inside of the garage painted over the last two weeks. Getting tired of the 25 mile drive on I-271 and the fecal I-480 back and forth between the two houses (480 freeway has the worst drivers in Ohio I think--saw the aftermath of 3 crashes in a 5 mile stretch yesterday). The worst drivers are no longer BMW drivers--its KIA drivers--they drive like complete assholes.... Looking forward to getting the house for sale and actually getting back to enjoying my weekends....
