  1. My mom isn't sure what she is going to do with her Astro. She was thinking maybe Uplander..but I'm now trying to talk her out of it. Those vans are major P.O.S....I'd thought they would be a bit better...but from what I'm hearing, but not much if at all... :( I told her to wait until the L vans/suvs/ smallish wagons roll out in the next few years...those might be worth it...
  2. Our family had an 86 Chevy Custom Van...and I have to say I miss that van. Especially after the 350 was dropped in. :AH-HA_wink: :wub: :chevy: Though gas milage sucked..... If I could afford one, i really would consider one. They need to be priced lower...so normal people can afford them. 50 grand just doesn't cut it. 35 and lower...much better.... People that can afford a Lexus are not going to buy a van... I've seen a few interesting ideas around here though...
  3. Ahh...explains a lot. :P As long as it's not "How fast can we make this escort go?".....its cool with me. B)
  4. yep, got a co-worker who thinks the same way. (he had a 95 Neon-head gasket issues) The part that annoys me though is that he hopes the car companies go out of business. And he tells everybody that too. :blink: <_< He rips apart my beater Cav..and tries to get everyone else to do so.... and since its been in the shop a few times lately (replacing the fuel system) But at 130k, it does a very good job.. You get tired of that "See, see?!! When will you learn?!?" :angry: I swear when I get the EGR replaced (last part I have to do), and he says something...he may come out to find his car on fire.... :angry: :rolleyes: :lol:
  5. Hmm...both liked it..that's interesting...
  6. Agreed.
  7. I've seen Cavalier roll off and be totaled right there. Dealership had a new guy... The customer actually watched it happen..as did I. The guy standing next to us says,"Well, now you could sue." As if by magic, the service was heading back there himself, ansd he turned white as a ghost. The nice thing was that the dealership was really cool about it. Thet let him pick a car off the lot to take home. Man, was he happy about that. He drove in with a Cavalier, and drove out with a S-10 Extreme.... :)

    Smashed!!

    Very interesting...
  9. None. They all have a part in car history, good or not. Some person would want one of those cars....to each their own. What if it was someone's first car, and they wanted to own one again? I work with someone who paid 2 grand to get his hands on a 89 Escort hatch. (which was in good shape). He really enjoys driving that thing.. and there is nothing wrong with that. :)
  10. Hmm...been wanting to see him live...might have to look in on that one.... :) I've heard he puts on a very good show....
  11. Poletown is being updated as we speak, and will see a bit more tweaking.. There is a chance it could close, but it is very unlikely..... The current DTS and Lucerne will be done in a few years...and the rumor here is still Zeta. And a switch to Zeta is easier than you might think....
  12. Yep. And nice sig by the way, NOS..
  13. Not sure that would go good together.... :huh: :lol:
  14. Abercromie still makes stuff?!? :P :lol: I would pity the people working there....the urge to smack someone would be too great.... :( I used to wear that stuff...then everything became tight-fitted... :angry: I miss those cozy shirts and sweatshirts.... :)
  15. As FOG would say.. SPOT ON! :)
  16. Umm..No. You would have to live in Detroit to understand... :P Good Bye Mr. Millen... Good bye Joey and Jeff.... Good Bye Mr. Rodgers...
  17. Hmm..now I want to see one... :)
  18. Cool card... :)
  19. Quoted for truth. Very good chance that it will happen...
  20. It should of never happened in the first place, and even then never helped my dad. If there is no work, why the heck should you be there? It's simply too bad for Michigan...they saw it coming..just like GM..and still did nothing. How can you pity stupidity? Times change..change with them or suffer a not-so -happy fate... As far as that benefit-I blame the UAW for being very short sighted that the idea of that would even work....
  21. Can't tell you how true that is....
  22. Every car company has a halo car.... You would be hard pressed to tell me that Corollas don't sell because of the Pruis.. and so on... And keep in mind it takes time to change...DCX would be a good example...
  23. Wow- good read..and some good points... :)
  24. Very nice saab there... :) Looking at your car makes my want to run out and get one around those years.. Someone a few blocks from me has a real nice one simular to yours, and a early 90s one also. Must control urge to buy....
