  1. That is really intelligent. My daughter is an insurance claims adjuster....dash cams have saved a lot of her clients a lot of trouble.
  2. Agree on the dash cam... In other news of useful inventions, I created a land mine that looks like a prayer mat. Prophets are going through the roof! See I can be a good businessman.
  3. Hoping it warms up here in Ohio.
  4. Sadly I have been sick on and off for a month. Starting to think seriously of moving out of Ohio and getting away from Ohio winters.
  5. That's because it's a transforner model like the bumblebee Camaro. Should scare the hell out of the neighbors cat when it transforms.
  6. I can undetstand casually checking things out a year in advance but spending a serious amount of time worrying about it probably puts one somewhere on the autism spectrum. A Forrester vs. an Escape Vs. a Cherokee is not that tough. I also don't understand people who buy brand new cars and then trade them in at a huge loss five thousand miles later either.
  7. I find the phrase "I am just killing time here for twenty minutes until I pick up my wife" to work very well at letting a potential salesman know I am not interested in a car today. I can politely decline telemarketers, people interested in sex (fewer than I would like for the purposes of ego), religious proselytizers, door to door people working to elect candidates, and any other request for whatever. Just stating your intentions and not being a D$#% will work wonders. Also, if you want...go when you know they are slow and if you want a salesman's time for questions they are generous. Go look on a rainy Tuesday morning at the beginning of the month. Chances are you will find a showroom full of bored sales people who will be more than willing to answer questions. My only problem is finding people with decent project knowledge when I do go look.
  8. There are also about a bazillion more people with pleasant memories of Camros than Continentals. But also agree on the transformer thing.
  9. We will simply ahve to disagree on this. Although I do also like the 9th gen F series. My brother in law owns one, lifted with a 460, clean California truck. Hell, I would rock that thing!
  10. Actually strange to hear this from me the Ford hater in the group but I really like the F series a lot. Ford did an amazingly nice job with both the regular series and the Super duty IMHO. Plus Ford has a nice selection of specialty versions ranging from Raptor to king Ranch. I will happily give them the trucks. Even on YouTube I only pulled up one advert for the new Conti. It is a self perpetuating cycle...they sell trucks, they justify truck advertisement...which sells more trucks...rinse lather repeat. Plus a lot of truck advertisement is on things like network sports shows which will have a guaranteed male audience ready to buy them.
  11. Edge and Explorer are decent but not class leading. fusion will go the way of the dodo bird and is not the car the accord or Camry are IMHO.
  12. Bingo. I hate to be a Buzz kill but on a recent trip I saw more Ford products from the 50's and 60's out on a March Monday on the interstate than current generation Continentals. Hate to Agree with SMK but Benz products are becoming as common as Toyota around here. Survival of the continental as a product vs Lincoln as a brand I think. They will continue to build the SUV products. Wonder what the inevitable demise of the fusion lineup will do for the Lincoln car line.
  13. That era of Cutlass still haunts my dreams forty years after the last one rolled off of the line.
  14. Nice ride! Most fat ladies have the sense to buy Buicks and Hondas both of which have much better reliability and lower running costs than Benz products.
  15. Really nice 75 Monte Carlo...brown. 64 Ford Galaxy 500 headed north on Interstate 71.
  16. Doctors are useless when the patient is essentially terminal. Would be smart for Ford to build F series and Mustang...pretty much the only product they can keep interesting and relevant. ...and 1973 would have been a good time for them to have started facing relevancy issues.
  17. And this will surely change towards the better for electrics with economy of scale.
  18. Kind of wondering what I am going to do in Regards to Facebook myself.
