  1. Speaking of Dads and cars, I need to digitize a bunch of photos of the cars my Dad had over the years...his first car was a '32 Ford 5 window coupe, had a '40 Packard coupe when he married my Mom in '48, first new car was a 49 Ford Fordor, last new car was a '96 Lincoln Town Car with lots of Fords, Mercurys, and Lincolns (and one Dodge truck, '56 Chevy, and a '66 HIno Contessa) in-between....
  2. Sorry to hear that...losing parents can be rough...lost my Dad at age 78 in 1999 after a 3 year fight with cancer. That hit me hard as we were close. Lost my Mom almost 2 years ago at age 85, felt nothing. She and I had been semi-estranged for a while..
  3. The shade of blue of the interior trim reminds me of old Netgear routers..
  4. Yes, steel rims and hubcaps don't look good on modern cars...but on late 60s-early 70s muscle cars, they look fantastic, IMO...
  5. Yes they did..would have been nice to see them in the Super Bowl. The catch rule calls this season have been crazy. Since the Browns are so horrible I've gone back to being a Steelers fan also (which I was as a kid since I was close to the Burgh living in Steubenville).
  6. Clean... the front kind of reminds me of the DS 7....
  7. This was fun...kind of front loaded it with the first 4 choices optioned up, the last one is a practical stripper. The GC is the comfy luxury daily driver SUV, just a bit fancier than my current GC. The Colorado is the practical little truck for some light duty hauling. The Wrangler, Challenger, and Miata are for fun on Ohio's back roads... 2018 Jeep Wrangler Sport S 2dr 4x4 firecracker red w/ tan & black interior manual $33870.00 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4 V6 walnut brown w/ brown & frost beige interior $48180.00 2018 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack octane red (dark berry red) w/ red & black interior Hemi manual $44415.00 2018 Mazda MX-5 Miata GT meteor gray mica w/ tan interior manual $32145.00 2018 Chevy Colorado 2wd extended cab deep wood green metallic, 4cyl manual $21235.00
  8. I have the Hot Wheels Sentinel 400...
  9. That was a painful one--2014, they destroyed my Broncos. One of Syd Mead's designs?
  10. Haven't seen one yet. They look like they sit higher than a Trax. Would like to see one parked next to a Trax.
  11. After disappointing seasons this year for the teams I follow, it was satisfying to see an underdog win. Was an entertaining Super Bowl.
  12. I liked the Ram vikings ad during the Super Bowl..
  13. Not particularly exciting, but I did see a couple obscure ones this morning--a silver Isuzu Axiom and an orangey-red Suzuki SX4. Haven't seen examples of either in years...
  14. Maybe they can bring back the Mark nomenclature for crossover coupes....a Mark IX LSC maybe?
  15. 550 doesn't have AMG in name, though. So AMG 65 > 550.
  16. 73 tells you that has more than the 63 did...
  17. At one time, they did designate liters. Like the original 6.3, 6.9, etc. today, though 73 > 63.
  18. Hmm..SE? I had a Passat as a rental for 3 weeks last year at this time...when I was back here closing on my house and doing initial remodeling before I moved back in June. Nice car..very comfortable, good outward visibility, huge trunk..
  19. Passat
  20. Chevy Express.
  21. Hmmm..something small and bold...Chevy Spark or Mitsubishi Mirage?
  22. I would assume they would be chrome with LEDs on the Escalade...
  23. I also wonder..with the pickups new for '19, will the SUVs (Tahoe/Suburban/Yukon/Escalade) be new for '20? Haven't seen anything about them yet...
  24. Nooo..no consolidation, we need more niches, more models, more variations...IDIC (infinite diversity, infinite configurations).
  25. The funny thing is, I've driven a couple late model Mustang and Camaro (5th gen) convertible rentals, and had to have the seat up (vertically) to comfortably see out....I'm not short (6'0") but felt like I was down in a well driving w/ the top up or down and the seat down low...
