I'm so confused why GM would take a step back. I mean, the 2009 LaCrosse had alloy wheels and dual zone climate control standard... the 2010 does not. TED, you mentioned you saw a CX... did you sit inside? How was the cloth fabric?

Oh my God, I'm glad to hear you're okay! This is partly the reason I stick to driving cars, not fixin' 'em

Nope.

It's interesting on the side of the cruise is written in large letters: SAFETY.

Those are two nice looking vehicles. I like the commercial, love the slogan. So many of my students have no clue what a Buick is, so along with Italian, they learn about a great car company Then they see mine in the parking lot and make fun of me for the remainder of the year.

Honestly, my fav ep of Seinfeld is "The Contest". It's brilliant.

So wait, if we have a new Enclave for 2012, are we getting an MCE for 2010?

The sleekness of it, not the lines, but the sleekness (I guess sporty/muscular look to it), remind me of the FX in a way.

I'll admit, back then I was just starting to look at cars being I was new to having a license. When I saw that Riviera, I dropped my jaw... it was edgy, elegant, smooth... it was luxurious... it was gorgeous. I thought that and then the Aurora were so ahead of their time.

Dodge Aries.

Given Paul a SC Riviera for free. Seriously though, taken the Japanese cars seriously and focused VERY hard on bringing quality interiors up!

I have to say, as much as a Buick fan as I am, I was never comfortable about the place they were in. For the first time in at least 5 years, I actually see a positive and potentially successful future for the brand. A Regal makes perfect sense--one can only hope it's executed correctly on this end. A mini Enclave is perfect--I see Enclaves EVERYWHERE. To make me happy, I'd love to see a little coupe/roadster, but I feel it'll come with time.

I got a picture of the sign. lol

Wow. Italy has some very creative street names (Chiasso delle Zingare (Narrow Alley of the Gypsy Woman)), but this just takes the cake! lol

That's awesome! "Cheese and sauce consuming beasts."

I'm a fan of Rhett and Link... they did their own Taco Bell drive-thru song. As for Papa Johns and Dominos, yes, online ordering/paying, freakishly accurate tracking, etc., is awesome, but what sucks is the quality of the product that arrives. I can only order them if I'm not in the mood to eat Italian food. If I can get myself in that mind-frame, it's not so bad. I will say I dig those little choco pastry thingies that Papa Johns has. Or Buffalo Chicken Kickers from Dominos.

Here's what I mean by the HVAC temp controls: 2008: 2009:

It's interesting... one TINY and ODD thing I noticed that I didn't mention to anyone because I just thought it was so insignificant, was that I noticed a difference in the Impala's HVAC controls between 2008 and 2009... it's SUCH a tiny difference it's almost like saying, "Why on earth did they do that?!" Apparently, the only difference I noticed is that the temp dials on the manual dual zone climate control have raised switches in the 2009. I'm going to see if I can find some pictures.

Happy Birthday man!
