A Horse With No Name

Happy Birthday...now go make another high speed run in the VW to celebrate.... Chris

+1 Agreed. Chris

This might be far worse than anyone peviously thought...be interesting to see how other governments help their automakers. Chris

Go to an SCCA event and watch A-Sedan, or to a NASA event and watch Camaro-Mustang Challenge, or American Iron. Best part is if you pay a years dues (SCCA is about $75 for an individual, or $100 for a family for a year) you get into unlimited races free for the year. Or, do as I did and work as a corner worker. You get up close to the action, and they feed you at the track to boot. It's about a billion times more fun than Nascar. Oh, and you might meet John Heinricy..he races a blue Firebird in A-Sedan. Chris

It would look kind of upscale, I think. Off topic, but I think Chevrolet did a MUCH better job with the color choices on the Camaro than Ford has done with the current Mustang. Chris

Very well said/written. Anybody else here seem to notice that Cheers and Gears seems to be getting better and better? The quality of the posts seems to be way up from everyone. Chris

Having worked 5 years for a landscaping contractor like that while I was going through college, I would agree. Mike, my old boss, was very big into quality and design...he was very talented and artistic, and a pleasure to work for, most of the time. I actually really miss doing landscaping....right up until the time my wife wants something done in the yard. Chris

I would agree. Nascar in some ways just needs to go away...it has become more of a soap opra for men then actual interesting racing. That and you watch about 3 laps for every 8 ad breaks... 66

I would agree with you but reverse Subaru and Mitsubishi. Chris

Thanks for the pic, 'Biz. There is something incredibly romantic to me about a woman and a 50's car. Chris

I also like Mulally... Sixty-Six

I'm not very religious, but I think its a good idea. I MUCH prefer this version of Christianity to the far right Neoconservative view that seems kind of prevelent today. Chris

Agree with you about other governments helping their automakers...I am optomistic for some long term reform. Chris

Yes, in the Solstice IIRC...my fav. GM car! Chris

+1 Chris

When you come up with more thoughts, I am all ears...or er..eyes, this is the internet after all. Sixty-Six

Agree with you here...my blood is just boiling right now. And not to turn this into a poltics thread, but people in VERY high offices seem really indiferent to-don't give a rats ass about-the automakers... My blood is boiling right alongside of yours, Biz. 66

Congrats...I already like youir posts...but I think this is one of the smartest things you've said on Cheers and Gears. Seriously. And I agree 100% Chris/66

Excellent article... Chris/66

I actually prefer Ballet or something if I'm going to watch females dance. Chris

I wish you lived closer, I'd love to give you a hand! Chris

Glad to hear its working out well, Viper. Chris

What it would really mean can only be very, very bad, methinks. Chris

I agree with the competition thing...it gave us a lot of creativity. Also agree that when the car guys take over, Pontiac can be profitable again. Chris

Why the hype about GM taking over Chrysler? Chris
