  1. I now see why Ocnblu is so opposed to electrics...obviously an electric car fornicated with his washer dryer combo and this is the illegitimate spawn of that unholy union. Ummmm....yeah....glad I have my Cannondale. Two wheels and manual everything for the win here.
  2. It's Anti American to have the government dramatically reduce your choices. If you want Cadillac to build you a Lumina and sell it to you as a Fleetwood...this is exactly what they would do without competition. I will not be lectured or shamed or taxed into buying American products. End of story. Now if I freely choose to buy American that is something else entirely. Agree with you on elected swamp creatures though.
  3. Now if our own country were only this good at prosecuting fraud and wrongdoing.
  4. Nothing they build...or the Asians for that matter....looks this good. Coming from me...that is saying Something! Doesn't matter...from a visual standpoint this owns everything else on the market.
  5. Or an S10 at an auction and save seventy grand. Everyone has a different threshold of what they are willing to pay or what technology they want.
  6. Quoting again...everybody has 'em...yes...and alternatives have a unique way of opening markets.
  7. This is profoundly anti American and anti free market. In fact thinking like this is exactly why I drive a car built in Mexico. I don't want the government telling me what to drive...period. Or conversely how many of our exports would be stone walled? Ask midwestern farmers how that trade war is working out for them. I suppose if closing yourself off from the world and abandoning trade worked North Korea would be the most prosperous country on the planet. In fact the opposite is the case.
  8. On a more positive Mustang note...this driver and car both Rock!
  9. Ohhh heck yes. Feeling better as an enthusiast actually than I have felt in maybe years. And God what I would not give for a 49-50 Mercury I always thought the Ford Variant of that was under rated. Also...I think early 50's cars are under rated by enthusiasts. I would not ahve enjoyed Polio or the Cold war...but from an automotive standpoint....Wish I had been growing up an enthusiast in the 50's in some ways. Proof that the Vega and Pinto interbred with anteaters.
  10. Apparently enough that its progeny have issues leaving car shows.
  11. ....and failed for decades to solve them. Cue Lucy, Charlie Brown, and Football.
  12. Free markets are wonderful things when used properly.
  13. Yep....product is a problem at Ford and GM. Toyota, honda, Hyundai, Kia, Benz, BMW, VW, Subaru, and others also build cars in the US and are not idling plants en masse. Not saying all GM and Ford products are bad...just that they need to work harder at being competitive. Even though I am the spiritual opposite of Cmicassa here in that I love a lot of foreign cars....I will even go out on a limb for GM. The big problem at GM is the front office, not the design studio or the assembly line. Promote and market what you have GM. GM really does under perform in terms of quality of product and sales. They need marketing. Badly. End of rant.
  14. Without question. Can't wait to see these on the road and in traffic.
  15. Ohhh absolutely. But my point is GM owns the plant...if they want to move it or shutter it...that is there right. Now...no statewide elected official can be seen as neutral on this and keep his job. I just don't want the thing to sit empty for ten years like Janesville did for GM.
