  1. I don't and I wouldn't, but I support those who do, if they eat their quarry. Deer is tasty, if cooked right. Both of my parents have hunted. My mom used to deer hunt with bow & arrow and gun. My dad has hunted wildfowl.

  3. Well, I hope everyone had a good day with their sweetie, or if not, that you all were at least optimistic about things.
  4. That's one badass little Rammer. Dodge Hornet, eh? Brilliant! That's the way to get people into a gas saving, smaller vehicle...MAKE IT COOL! This makes an Aveo look totally pathetic.
  5. flashback?
  6. So what do you do to get rid of the funk, Satty... dip 'em in rose water? Spray 'em with Febreze? Wash them gently and meticulously, chasing them around their sack with a nice soft warm washcloth and some Dove soap?
  7. Flasher
  8. If your goal is to haul stuff and not passengers... why go with an SUV? A half-ton extended cab pickup truck with 4WD and the 5.3L has room in the cab for lockable storage, yet has a nice sized bed for your hauling needs. Is it ok to haul a refrigerator horizontally? I don't think it is, I could be wrong. If you're not towing something big, why would you need a 3/4 or 1-ton pickup truck? That's what you'll need to buy if you want a diesel engine.
  9. This reminds me of an old joke.

  11. That's not gonna be fun. I wish you the best, Camino.
  12. Amazing how many are getting riled up over this... when cross-town rival Ford builds the $17k Fusion and the $35k Zephyr/MKZ and they are sickeningly similar.
  13. Happy Valentine's Day to everyone. I hope you all get a little surprise today from the person you love.
  14. Well, she died in 1962, so if your grandfather saw her while serving in Viet Nam, he was there very, very early. Are you sure that's not some dude dressed up as MM to entertain the troops (at least until his skirt blows up... WHOA!)?
  15. Well, for hauling the things you mentioned, I'd recommend a pickup truck over an SUV. If you really want diesel, you know it'll have to be a 3/4 ton or heavier. Overall, I'd say Sierra K1500 extended cab with a 6.5 foot bed, 5.3L. Plenty of hauling area, yet still manageable for everyday.
  16. Yeah, sure. Not positive how scientific it is, but hey.
  17. I ventured out on Sunday morning to a local 24 hour diner for breakfast, just after it quit snowing. The road crews had done a fantastic job, but the roads were still snowpacked. My booth was in the front of the building, with a clear view of the intersection. During my time there, I saw an Escort overshoot the turn into the diner and almost tag the guardrail, and a new Acura TSX spin its front tires like crazy trying to get moving when the light turned green. Also, on the way in, the only car I saw in the ditch abandoned was a Honda Accord.
  18. Agreed, my mom's was 2 door, I don't think the four door was imported here. There was something so honest, plain, yet fun about it. And you cannot beat French cars for suspension travel, which affords a cloudlike ride.
  19. I still don't like the taillights, but the rest of it is growing on me.
  20. Hers had the big block. I think it was a 1.4L or something outrageous like that.
  21. My mom had an '82 Le Car. She loved it. It was white with tan vinyl interior and a wicker headliner (stock!) That thing was trouble free for her except for the exhaust system, and it rode sooo smooth, like a Cadillac. It leaned so far in turns, it scraped its door handles practically. She put 100k miles on it in 4 years and traded it on an '86 Camaro V6.

  24. Nice! Ah, the age of automotive innocence... so pure.
  25. Aww man, is that the car he bought, or just a representation? That is a sweet little honey, for sure.
