Yet they still do it while fighting has gone down in the NHL (as ccap stated). BTW, fighting is technically against the rules in the NHL as well. In fact, fighting is against the rules in every sport EXCEPT where it actually involves fighting yet fights still happen in basketball, football, soccer, etc. Them lofty standards though lol. In fact, here is over 2 hours of fights from European hockey from 2003-2019 yet it is against the rules (as you stated).

Two out of the three are niche sales at best and the other will get waxed by REAL pick ups. Not sure how that helps them long term at all.

Just so very sorry for your loss. Carry on the good memories you have with him. That is the best medicine I can prescribe.

Thats pretty much the same thing as what's he's saying.

Well since that article was dated last month, I’m guessing there’s more up to date info.

And this is just plain old nuts, dangerous, and all those other bad things and I also want to drive it.

A true throwback to the 70s and the vans that made that decade.

Screw the dealership model, is all I have to say.

It’s okay though. According to one person here. Elon is rich beyond words so he can afford that “measly” little fine lol. That is also extremely dirty pool by Tesla.

Just a sharp sharp ride @balthazar. Really dig that paint color scheme too. Keep us posted.

The 90's version of a Suburban Coupe CUV and just as long lol.

I dig everything about that.

Nice! My dad actually took the third row seat out of his van and then put in a queen size sofa sleeper bed inside of it (just the metal framework, no couch), making it a pseudo conversion van. He then made a rare mistake by letting my brother drive it as his first car as a teenager. Doesn't take much to see where that could go horribly wrong for a parent lol. Once I find pictures of it, I'll post them here. Just a truly different time.

This is what I grew up in as a kid. And it was a Sportvan, not a sport ten. Lots of people hauling and camping trips. It was also a 3 on the tree, true old school.

Sometimes you just come across something on Craigslist that is exactly how it is described by every stereotype. It's also a little scary that I kind of like it but that's probably because I spent the first 13 years of my life practically being raised in a '71 Chevy Sport 10 van. Yes, I have a slight thing for vans as well as wagons lol. https://greensboro.craigslist.org/cto/d/greensboro-1991-chevrolet-g20-custom-van/7324811987.html

Looks like McIntosh. Another bucket list buy.

Don't know if I had one coming my way or not but either way, I apologize for any negative contribution to that exchange. I would love to be able to catch a shot like that with my DSLR! Nature is chaos and beauty at the same time.

As an avid sweet tea enthusiast southerner who makes his own brew, that is a felony where I come from. That is a whole other white trash tragedy right there. There are literally stainless containers for just such a purpose, where you go through 55 gallons of tea an hour lol.

The "pick up" is actually kind of neat (reminds me to the VW microbus with PU beds) but the rest is a mess IMO.

Still sold directly by Buick and it handled through them from beginning to end (in some fashion or another) whereas the Hammer was basically an aftermarket tuner job by AMG. Not quite the same thing. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a23739443/buick-regal-grand-national-gnx-history/

And for only 4 times the cost while still being slower. There was also never more than 30 of those because they were essentially one off conversions by AMG, and at a time when AMG was not fully under the Mercedes umbrella (ownership wise) so they are basically just another tuner company like Callaway and Hennessy. At least the Buick was all GM and all stock with no tuner help. Mercedes didn't have a real interest in hi-po sedans at that time anyway, which is why it took AMG to juice up that E-300.

Actually the dream cars from my childhood were the Lamborghini Countach and Porsche 959 but thanks again for assuming people’s intent here. Got any more?

Lotto winning/bucket list car. More style on that than should be allowed on a car,

You are correct and my response was for that exact reason. The defensive BS and lofty standards of one person should not diminish what was said in admiration of a classic ride. Seriously, follow your own advice. You're the one who had to $h! on David because he made a COMMON SENSE statement about a car that was (flaws and all) ahead of the curve back then. He also never said it was the greatest car of the 80s so that's you putting words into others mouths again. That, in and of itself, is an exaggeration. Again, follow your own advice and move on.

You didn’t fix anything. Common sense would tell you that by “performance auto”, he was referring to sedans. Name the sedans (in the same class and provide range as the GNX) from the companies HE mentioned that were so much better overall that it diminishes what he was saying about the GNX. I know you have lofty standards and love to point that out but it is ridiculous to take something he said (as a generalization) and just post some instant defensiveness that has nothing to do with anything.
