Phil Hendrie is multitudes funnier than Leykis.

Gallons saved compared to what, a Sequoia or a Corolla?

NAV should now and forevermore always be an option. I want my dash uncluttered with pointless crap, please. And this is from a guy who has a Bonneville sitting in the driveway.

Tiburon has always been the one decent Hyundai. As for me, Buick LaCrosse CXS.

See, its not the fact that this car has such a weird way to get at the luggage. That's actually okay...if it were the first and only retractable hardtop. Its merely the fact that, oh, a dozen other retractable hardtops today both smaller and larger don't have those problems that makes it simply ridiculous.

That, and a manual gearbox. Whoa!!!

Do you understand the meaning of the word 'monochromatic,' because if you think it means 'without chrome,' it doesn't. That Riv is about as unmonochromatic as you can get and not scald the retinas.

Else end up like Mitsubishi? I'd off myself, too...in a Hara-Kamry

Sorry, Balthy, but auto headlamps are a great feature that should be on every car, especially those driven by idiots who don't realize its dark or torrentially raining.

You're generalizing, too, just because your Bimmers don't have problems. I'm also assuming your BMWs aren't the ones overloaded with more circuitry than the probe they just launched to Pluto.

Yes. I used a few tanks of 87 shortly after I bought my car just to see what happened. Slightly noticable drop in overall power and worse fuel economy by several mpg. The economy normalized itself, but not the power. Back to 93... Anyway, if I wanted to save money on gas, I wouldn't have bought an Aurora. Saving $9.85 a month on my car is like holding the mayo on a Wendy's triple stack because its too much fat.

Again, O.C., there's more to bench seating than six-seater capacity. I could say the same about the Corolla or Echo holding '5' people and say its a bunch of malarky, but we all know that's not always the point. GM is down to leaving it as an option on four (4) car lines. Is it really that bad and that much of a waste in totality?

Yes, I voted for the ION. I don't care. Astra is almost perfect except for the crappy center stack in all Euro cars.

If you really need that third row, buy a minivan. Dodge has one, yes, yet the Durango is so trashy inside and out for the price. No class whatsover in that rig. Aspen, however, is at least presentable.

Satty, you don't use Fuji water in the washer fluid? Seriously though, I baby my baby.

Should've had a throwover ragtop companion with an Atlas I6 for $27k.

$1500-3000 for a map I'd never use, messed up radio/HVAC controls, or a setup like iDon'tDrive? No thanks. Give me an astroroof and chrome wheels ANY day.

No matter what anyone's expectations of the Camaro were, it was going to be a midsized V8 muscle car and the general look and everything is more or less predetermined. Things like the Enclave are more radical. Truth be told, Camaro wouldn't even register in my mind if GM announced the debut of a new Buick flagship above Lucerne at the Chicago or NY auto show. Not only would I likely never buy a Camaro, but I have no idea what a superBuick would look like, therefore piquing my interest a whole bunch.

I drive by 'Lokey Crosslander and Land Rover' in Tampa every now and then and of course never saw an actual Crosslander. No airbags? Eastern Bloc? What a piece of $h!.

What I notice about elderly drivers is that they do most of the same idiotic thing young drivers do except in a slower, more predictable fashion. Kid will bomb across six lanes of interstate traffic to make an exit while Gramps will do the same...at 25mph. At least there's some preditability in it. Big differences I also notice are that young people dash in and out of traffic more while old people drive into building more.

No crap. When you see 5 people crammed in a Civic, who's driving? Not Aunt Edna. She's got the Grand Marquis.

Can't be sold in Utah now.

How contrived? Very.

Appliance stories? I saw a Toyota Camry and...

Used.
