  2. Instead of searching for a tiny Canadian Pontiac, why not just turn on the porch light?
  3. bigger boat
  4. Yeah, I've been onto this for a while now. She's fantastic. There are a couple more clips out there, too. I wish her enormous success, and I hope she keeps her wits about her and doesn't let things go to her head.
  5. As always, nice shots, Vipes.
  6. Well, this is what I'd call more bittersweet: my old Sierra! It was two ahead of me when I first spotted it, a stupid Civic was between us. It soon turned off and then I could see how dirty it was. New owner also had a hitch put on it, and vent visors... not to mention fuzzy dice hanging from the mirror. At the next red light, I seized an opportunity. I slipped the Cobalt up into neutral, set the brake and ran up to speak to the grizzled, 50-something driver. "Hey I don't mean to scare ya, but this is my old truck! I traded this truck in at Red Lion Chevrolet." He got a surprised look on his face. I said "How's it running for ya?" "Well, I just got it back from them, the damned posi unit was skipping on tight turns. They had the rear out of it. It still ain't right. This was your truck, huh? That's incredible." And the light turned green, I had to run. So my beautiful former 2007 Sierra is having a hard life. I never thought I'd see it again, since the dealership I traded it to is like 30 miles from me. At this point, I wish I hadn't seen how it's being treated, sigh...

  8. discounttire.com or tirerack.com, free shipping most of the time, if you want aftermarket. Those ION rims were used on a Special Edition Cobalt, too.
  9. My mom is funny. She likes the Kia Soul and the Nissan Cube, so we went for a test drive in each yesterday evening. Only she made ME drive. The Soul is sportier looking inside and out than the Cube. The Cube has a nicer interior and rides more comfortably, but I just cannot glom onto the CVT. And the Cube looks soooo weird. She likes the Cube better after the "test ride".
  10. Yeah, alloys are the $h!.
  11. A Traverse-based El Camino? No effin' way.
  12. Take 'em off, run black steelies.
  13. Yup, and you'd also have to replace the trunk lid, rear bumper and rear lights.
  14. One rather important detail: this comes from The Onion.:AH-HA_wink:
  15. I hope you're having a good one, sir.

    Jeez, I haven't changed my own oil since I left the farm. I used to do it all the time.

    Dealer hopping

    I guess it's time I was a frequent after hours visitor at my local Chevrolet dealer. I have GOT to see this car!
  18. Thanks for posting this. After reading the article, I'll gladly stick with Chevrolet, for reasons stated therein. They are all worthy trucks, however, except no American should be willing to be seen in a Toyota fullsize pickup. Also, those sticker prices... WOW, these are high-priced pickups.
  19. :huh: You mean, if the check is never cashed, the money stays in the account? You're so smrt!
  20. X since we're naming AMC trim levels

    Rawr!

    I would take a thousand years to get that many match heads together.
  22. That was sweet as heck.
  23. pssst... balthy, that doesn't make sense... how's the bank going to get the canceled check back?

    Rawr!

    Yeah mine idles about 1100 when first started cold.
