  1. This is why eventually you will be a father and a good one. Your mindset is already in the right direction for children.
  2. Congrats to you and your purchase!! Enjoy your car. Let let us know more. You got a good car. I wished I had found my Toronado like that and I would not have to do all the things I am doing. I am very happy for you and your purchase. The same thing you experienced is the same thing I did when I bought my Ninety Eight in good condition like you did. You will enjoy your experience.
  3. Press forward with the work. It is a good start.
  4. I remember that Cutlass with the manual. That Firenza Starfire ran into the early 1980's.
  5. Very nice car. That is when GM cars had character. I often wonder what an Eldorado would look like today....
  6. Very nice looking vehicle sir. Most impressive.
  7. There is the problem. They are not out playing, interacting with others.
  8. Being Oldsmobile is my favorite GM division, and I know my division. I would go with the Ninety Eight on one simple fact: The 3800 under the hood my experiences with the car. The Intrigue is a divisional car and rides and handles well has a few short comings. What is under the hood is one of them. I think long term with vehicles. I have ridden in an Intrigue and other Oldsmobiles. I do not trust Shortstar as it is derivative of Northstar and can be expensive to repair or fix. That 3800 in that Ninety Eight is common and parts are around in abundance. All the bugs had not been worked out of Intrigue in 1999 either. They had used the 3800 and switched over to Shortstar. There also were too many little electrical issues on this car too. While it looks great and is a fully loaded GLS, I would pass on it. In in terms of W Bodies of that era, The Oldsmobile looked the best, and offered a lot. The Regal and Century just were not up to snuff in appearance or performance. The Grand Prix was the best all around performer during that time. Chevrolet was the most affordable package( Monte Carlo and Lumina). I would go with the Ninety Eight because : 1. It shares parts with Eighty Eight, LSS, and the 1995-1999 Aurora. This will prove handy. 2. It is quite the car especially on gas. I know. 3. Comfort, convenient, secure. 4. The design and quality was all ready set in and improved during this time. 5. It also has mechanical parts in common with Buick Park Avenue Find out if that Ninety Eight is a Series I or Series II Series I: Has no digital gauges or memory seats( control is on drivers door.It will say 1 and 2 and set) Series II: Has digital gauges, information center, memory seats and more. Lets put it this way.. The only difference between my car and a Cadillac is I do not have a V8. That is it. In fact The Ninety Eight had more features than a Deville. I know. The Deville did not get passenger side climate control and steering wheel controls until 1997.
  9. I have seen them too. They use them in Sugarland.
  10. I posted this commercial in the Oldsmobile section weeks ago. You can see it there.
  11. Go here: http://encyclopedia.classicoldsmobile.com/...ds/91trofeo.jpg You are close. The Starfire Firenza which was replaced by the front wheel drive J Body Firenza was rear wheel drive. It was small sports coupe.
  12. Nice photos and nice car. It is amazing the attention to detail GM had back then. That car has held up well too. It seems it needs some work like my car does. Enjoy your new car and take care of it.
  13. This is another good photo too and another handsome man.
  14. You are not ugly.. Far from it. I will not be posting any photos of myself, and I was not going to respond to anything is this thread. I am not making moves on you or suggesting anything. You are very handsome man. I just think it was great photo.
  15. Alero. Before Alero it was Achieva.
  16. Cutlass Rocket Action Man- reference to the 1960's Oldsmobile marketing slogan ( at the same time Ocnblu and Custom Pontiac would tease you about this one) Toronado CTS-D( provided you move to Europe) Caliente Toronado Caliente Oldsmobile_Man Rocket 455 Going_Olds New_Oldsman ( reference to your life changes) These are ones based on things you have said
  17. It seems Cheers and Gears has become the place to come out and express your deepest thoughts. Some of the things I read here are interesting. Some of them are wow!! I am glad to see people being true to themselves. One day maybe, I will tell all the secrets I have been keeping. It would take a whole thread and several posts. I just like reading all these things.. One thing I have learned in life besides God, you always need that one person you can confide in and talk to. You do what you must Myer Shift. I hope you and your friend can work things out.
  18. Very nice photos. I was looking at the fun had by all. I was also looking at the cars too. I noticed the Oldsmobiles. Is this a yearly event in your area? The towns like this are dying in our country. You can tell there is a sense of community there. I prefer large cities as I live on the 4th largest in the United States. You do appreciate scenes like this. Great photos.
  19. I am sorry... I really am. That is tough for anyone to deal with. Use this time to allow your inner man to heal so you can go forward. I am so sorry because you have hope and the wham! The thing is.. It is never one thing, but several things all at once.
  20. This is not making sense.. SAAB 9-7x is going away. The Buick Rainier is going away. That leaves Trailblazer and Envoy, but GMC and Chevrolet will have Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Acadia which is doing quite well.
  21. Glad to hear you are getting the work done. Thank you for the encouragement as I have to put a new engine in my Toronado. I hate to think what they will find with my engine. Let us know how it turns out.
  22. Powerful story... It is true then... they always come back. Someone told me that too about someone from my past (2003) and I did not believe it. They still have not come back, but reading what you said made me understand what they meant. I was given the same scenario that happened to you too. I was the one who got left and hurt like you just like you. You have inspired me. You have helped me.
  23. Sadly... there are a lot of superficial people in the gay community. This is one of the biggest problems along with trying to create some standard that does not exist and trying to make others measure up to it when it is clear they do not themselves. It is what is inside and the heart of a man. The outside fades with time.
  24. Chas thinks it is all about him. Guess what?? It is not. I know you are hurt right now, but I am starting to think you might be better off. In reference to your other statement, that man is not going to tolerate that forever.
