  1. Yes! I was looking at pics of it last night, I like the styling inside and out... very sharp and unique. A bit of randomness..my father would have been 99 today.
  2. Of the 'designer' breeds, I like Yommies (Yorkie-Pomeranian) , Yorkipoos (Yorkie-Poodle) and Morkies (Yorkie-Maltese). For some randomness, saw a TV ad for the GMC Hummer EV...I rarely see TV ads, but I was streaming a documentary on the Ark Royal and it had ads.
  3. Nice 70-72 Vista Cruiser..those look like an available Olds wheel of that era, without the trim rings seen on this '70..
  4. I liked my Bronco II. Served me well the 6 years I had it.
  5. Probably too small to fit a Hellcat V8, though.
  6. I really don't do off-roading, other than the occasional gravel road, so I don't need all the rock-crawly capability of a Wrangler or Bronco... I suspect w/ the big tires and removable roof the Bronco will be loud on-highway, like the Wrangler...would be a fun weekend toy. The GC is quieter, more of a daily driver all-weather luxo-cruiser which suits my taste.
  7. I'm really looking forward to seeing the Broncos, Sport and 'large'. I don't think I'd trade my Jeep on one, but they look fun.
  8. My typical work-from-home fall uniform, with COVID crazy hair...
  9. Re: dog pics.. Recent pics of Henry, Beardsley's bum, Raine, and Ginny...
  10. The guy was driving an XT5...said he'd driven Cadillacs for 30 years.. Speaking of Subarus, there was a black Ascent parked behind me at the bank this morning, looking at the tail end in my rearview mirror, I thought it was a Ford CUV of some sort until I noticed the oval emblem wasn't a Ford blue oval...
  11. I want to do more cross country trips eventually, but not in plague times. I would do one again but at a leisurely pace, staying in hotels along the way or in an RV. No more straight-through drives.
  12. I remember seeing that Uranus Fudge Factory on Rt 44 in MO when I was driving from Phoenix to Cleveland in June '17. Got a chuckle out of the sign..
  13. An IT director in his 50s bought for his college student son.
  14. There are others like that on Youtube... 'JR Garage' is one, a couple creepy-looking rich kid teenagers that buy, fix up, and sell broken exotics..
  15. The STS sold on Saturday..just got back from going to the bank to get the title notarized...off to a new home with 139k miles...
  16. I really want a Challenger w/ a V8 and a manual... and it would be a 2nd car, so gas mileage isn't an issue.
  17. My Jeep has the 3.6 Pentastar V6...w/ the 8spd auto it's very smooth, and surprisingly good on gas, even in an AWD 5000lb SUV... I really want a Charger or Challenger eventually, though w/ the Hemi.
  18. Yes, and much nicer than those awful seatbelts anchored to the doors that GM did in the early 90s...those were awful.
  19. My sister's '00 DTS had those style seatbelts...IIRC, the Park Avenue around 2000 may have had them also. I've seen them in some full size pickups, some of the Rams I believe.
  20. Some sort of early 50s humpy lumpy? A Chrysler product?
  21. Yeah...I think to think of steel as smooth and relatively thin, like a car body. Iron I think of as thick and rough textured like the giant beams under a bridge or I-beams, big industrial looking bolts, etc. I've been reading about the 12, sounds nice..I just upgraded back in the summer to an iPhone SE, so not upgrading again anytime soon. I don't like the larger form factors, I like how the SE fits in my hand and can use one-handed..
  22. Sounds like the Charger, Challenger and 300 will be around in current form at least the next 3 model years.. https://www.autoblog.com/2020/10/23/dodge-challenger-charger-new-variants/
  23. Took a drive about 20 miles south through parts of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, nice scenic fall weather..warm enough to see many convertibles out and about...a couple different generations of Miatas, Mercedes SLs, a dark green Bentley Continental GT convertible, a white late model Mustang GT w/ California Special trim, oldest car I saw was a clean dark blue '71-72 Malibu.
  24. Looks like an '80s de Ville...the steering wheel is the style they used from '79 onward...Fleetwood Brougham used it up to '92. '77-78 had a two-bar wheel with a rectangular center pad. The '77-78 style wheel was also used in the Seville of that era (Seville--gray interior below). The dash of the Seville kind of resembled a scaled down version of the '74-76 de Ville dash...
  25. That’s a ‘66 Thunderbird.
