Ain't that the truth...

What's most disgusting is, this nerd is proud of his work.

Black Terrain SLT at local dealer. Red Terrain on the road, my first off-lot sighting.

He said "what was I doing wrong?" I strained to keep a straight face and answered "you were pulling the parking brake release handle." "Dumb me," is how he responded. Hence my thread title.

Um OK I had a customer come in this afternoon with a Sable, saying someone backed into him in a parking lot. He needed an estimate. He said the hood wouldn't open. I was expecting a need to call for a rental car by his initial description. When I got out there, there was a tiny spot of black rubber residue on his right side fender from the Toyota SUV's tire that backed into him, no dent. I couldn't think of a reason why the hood would be affected from such miniscule contact, so I stood at the hood and asked the customer to pull the release while I pulled out every trick I could think of to persuade the hood to open. Nothing worked. I asked the customer to trade places with me. The hood release worked perfectly, the hood opened. So I asked him to try it again as I watched. he was pulling the parking brake release handle...

Whoa, hey lakie, how you been? No password, per se, that I know of. Just IM an admin and you're in. I think.

"MOM"

This is a horrible place to be spreading empty green promises and wishes.

Meh. I predict about 1/100th of the outcry for Saturn compared to what they did to Pontiac. A misappropriation of funds from the start. And now all those jobs lost at the retail level. That is the only thing that burns me.

Must have been awesome for you. Nice vid.

davey, can a person service the automatic transmission in a Cobalt? I thought they were sealed. Let us know.

Keeping Up Appearances

Whoa, spunky, and nice it's a manual. I do prefer the second gen, '65-'69 bodystyle, but this is lookin' good! Thanks for putting that up, z.

Yeah, no surprise really, but I'm happy for Viper, if he is really doing this for a living. I wouldn't think Chris' boss would let him put Cory's name in there if he weren't on the payroll.

Get yourself a nice 4.3L S-10 to drive around in.

All business. All Chevrolet tradition. All badass. And I wish it were all mine. Thanks for posting, Camino. If a kid that age is building trucks like this now, just think what he'll be coming up with when he can see over the steering wheel!

don't say what... "excellent choice"?

chips & salsa

I will kick your equine pack animal for posting that. Name the place, I'll be there. And wear your concrete undies.
