At my last company, we used Wordpress...I blogged about once a month for over 2 years (about software development). I want to get back into it sooner or later, on a variety of topics...I did a little bit with Posterious, but it's gone now..

Didn't see one, so I'm starting one.. Saw one of the new '15 Ford F150s on the road or the first time today...silver crew cab, temporary plate...looks like someone really broke in their new truck--was splattered w/ mud and had lots of dents in the aluminum body panels.. also saw a derelict 70s Chevy LUV in a restaurant parking lot--had been red I think at one time, paint was faded to flat orangish..not one panel was straight, nose was crunched in, doors dented, bed sides mashed down..but still in use. Was a 2 round headlight version, I remember seeing them w/ 4 round lights..

Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Chicago Auto Show (CAS)
Dreadful new grille and badging...so over the top. Looks like the have abandoned the Ram's head logo also. -

Acura News: Acura Looks Towards All-Wheel Drive As A Differing Factor
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Acura
So they want to be a Japanese Audi.. -
Definitely looks bold and futuristic...seems alternative power cars do have to look futuristic, not necessarily pretty...

Chicago Auto Show: 2016 Toyota Avalon: Comments
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Chicago Auto Show (CAS)
I don't know what they are thinking w/ these huge grilles..the current one is bad enough..tasteless. At least in 2 plate states, the license plate improves the looks, but here it's all exposed.. -
I assume this would be on the same platform as the new large Cadillac?

Toyota News: Toyota's Fuel Cell Vehicle Has A Name and Price
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Toyota
I guess they are trying to be bold and make it stand out. Making it generic like a Corolla wouldn't work, buyers of unconventional tech cars want them to stand out and say 'look at me'... -
The only -Type that made sense had already been used... (X-Type). And they couldn't call it the XX, I guess...
-
ugh...48%. Some weird ones about colors, gas caps, horsepower and the pattern got me..not enough coffee yet this morning
-
I can get why it lasted 38 years on minimal maintenance--such a simple beast that there is very little to go wrong.. But I can't imagine driving something so old and worn out and bare-bones day after day, year after year...

Lol! from what I've read, a brown manual diesel wagon is the holy grail for auto journos....
-
A brown ATS wagon w/ AWD, diesel and manual would be great..
-
As an aside, I've had mixed results with Amazon products and services...I love Prime, I've had good experiences building applications using AWS (RDS, EC2, ELB, etc)..my original Kindle was great as a book reader. My Kindle Fire is great as a book and magazine reader, so-so an a general purpose tablet... I love the Kindle Fire Stick TV dongle, so far much better than the flaky Chromecast was.

Not available in the Amazon store for Kindle Fire. Probably can side load, though. Can you try another browser? I used Dolphin for a while on my Galaxy Tab 2, but I've gone over to Chrome now. I just encountered too many hiccups with Dolphin. I'll give it a try on Silk, but that browser is crashy. Try Chrome. It's what I use, so I know it works on stock Android.

Buick News: Teased again: Buick's upcoming Encore
Robert Hall replied to Blake Noble's topic in Buick
White walls and white letter tires have been out of style for years, except for use on older cars... -
Surface Pro rocks over the Ipad. Surface Pro rocks over the Ipad. Never going back to Microsoft products...

It could be issues w the Dolphin browser on my Kindle Fire, but it usually takes me 3-4 tries to get right menu item. Usually end up with chat. Need to ditch the Fire and get an iPad.
-
Just seems like the navigation is more involved than it was 6 months ago. Forum list/index is now hidden...view new content works differently also...
-
I noticed the change. Awkward to use on my tabby and iPhone. It's odd that I have to select community then forums to get to the index page, the old site seemed to require fewer steps.

You said K car in the first post, so I thought you meant the '82-86ish one. Chrysler overused the LeBaron name in the 80s, at least 5 distinct designs (incl. a RWD model in '80-81) used that name...
-
Looks like a Buick Electra.....there was a 2dr K car based LeBaron, by way....82-88. Dodge equivalent was the 400/600.
