  1. I can't recall the last time I saw ANY Renault..
  2. Sometimes I miss my first car... my '84 Ford Escort diesel. 5drs, 5spd, 52 screaming horsepower.. I still have my first new car, my '87 Mustang GT, though.
  3. I'm practicing a lot of willpower now as far as cars... I just don't want a car payment, but I've got the new car itch.. maybe in 6-12 months. I'm also in the process of leaving a job that I've been at almost 5 years, leaving a stable, good salaried job for a contract that looks to be more fun (and pay more also).
  4. If such a weapon did exist, it would be amusing to use against the insurgents in Iraq..those Muslim guys are more homophobic than evangelical Christians..
  5. Just hope this '57 Plymouth has a benevolent spirit and isn't 'Christine'..
  6. I wonder when Chevy will have competing models...maybe bring back the Geo brand to go head-to-head with Scion..
  7. Speaking of older Corollas, anyone remember the Corolla FX hatchback in the '80s? I worked with a guy about 10 years ago that had a white one...I saw one this morning that was almost identical to his..in nice shape..
  8. I tend to squint my eyes, furrow my brow...maybe roll my tongue around inside my mouth. Another thing is I always tend to do things with my hands in meetings...play with coins, fiddle w/ my cell phone, take my watch on and off, play with a pen, etc..
  9. Ah, the folly of Sixty8s plan has come undone.. if he had taken a Camry or Prius instead, the trip would have gone smoothly and with no problems.. Remember--- Toyota-- Moving Forward <tm>
  10. Though we started the war on questionable pretenses, and took out Saddam, it's not our war anymore..it's a civil war within Iraq...the &#036;h&#33;es are fighting the Sunnis....let them fight amongst themselves... it's not worth the lives of our soldiers to try and settle disputes amongst a bunch of Muslim nutjobs that have been fighting amongst themselves for centuries.... The idea of trying to start a democracy in Iraq is noble, but futile...these are people that for generations have only known monarchies and dictatorships...again, NOT OUR PROBLEM.
  11. True, like the Cavalier..it was popular and a big seller for decades, but was still a &#036;h&#33;box. I guess this is 20th anniv. of the Corolla built in Canada?
  12. I saw an older Diahatsu Charade and an mid '80s Chevy Spectrum the other day...haven't seen either of those in eons..
  13. Agreed... it's good to acknowledge the past and be aware of it, but don't live in it... I like living in the here and now and looking forward to the future, not living in the past...
  14. As far as the Chevy large FWD/RWD issue is concerned, maybe they should keep the Impala FWD and call the Zeta RWD model Caprice...
  15. How would something that happened over 60 years ago have any relevance today? Similar kinds of things could be said about Mercedes, Opel, Mitsubishi, etc..
  16. I've never had a comment from others when I put $50+ in my Jeep, since more often than not the person at the pump next to me has a bigger SUV.. (Colorado has the highest concentration of SUVs anywhere, I think)..
  17. I've seen 140mph a few times...once in my M3, once as a passenger in my friend Steve's NSX, another time driving his NSX. I had my sister's Merc S-class up to 125 once, ran out of road.. I don't know how fast I've had my Mustang GT, the speedo only goes to 85.
  18. It's a good idea.. my pets are spayed/neutered.. doesn't make sense not to. Now if they would require this for humans, that would be even better, reduce the overpopulation problems..
  19. This sounds pretty cool, esp. if it will be offered with a manual.. I'm sure this is worlds better than my '84 Escort diesel was... I'd buy a diesel again, esp. if I had a longer commute, and if I could get one that's loaded..
  20. Yes, those rear projection DLP TVs offer a lot of bang for the buck compared to LCD and plasma...I bought my Toshiba 62 inch DLP 1080p about 19 months ago...the price has come way down since then...still love it, though...
  21. Sounds like someone had a wild ride...too bad he didn't have a video camera and make a YouTube flick out of it..
  22. I was a light once and a suit in a 300ZX behind me was picking his nose so agressively it looked like he had his entire hand up his nose..
  23. I've thought of doing it..my '00 Grand Cherokee Laredo has almost 80k on it..thought about looking for a low mileage '04 Overland (top-of-the-line model, last year of the 2nd gen design)...
  24. Cool land yacht, '68.. a buddy of mine in high school back in the '80s had a sweet '76 Electra 225 coupe--bright red w/ white 1/2 vinyl top and red interior...what a boat.
