  1. Muslim societies have laws like this in place now.
  2. As long as it earns its keep. We'll have whatever Albert gets as our travel vehicle. If it gets too beat up, Ill have an excuse for something more rugged and versatile...which seats 5 and has a 6 foot or 8 foot bed.....or both.
  3. The crv is paid off in 8 months, so we're planning on just keeping it for a while. Albert would get a new vehicle and I would take the crv as my work vehicle.
  4. There are no current plans for a flagship sedan above the Lacrosse for Buick. The XTS will be the spiritual successor to the Park Ave and DTS for the time being.
  5. Well any AWD problems are going to have to wait. We're down in DC this weekend and it seems like the front left CV Joint has eaten itself during the trip AND there is another problem with the electrical system. The headlights are flickering like strobe lights, but only sometimes. The dash lights flicker simultaniously. At one point it was so bad that the dash was starting to throw error lights for the airbag, ABS, and battery. The battery is less than 8 months old. The right CV joint was replaced about 18 months ago.
  6. Not as blunt as Lutz, but every bit as brash.
  7. using the church to try and hide from something that isn't wrong in the first place ends up bad for both the church and the person doing the hiding. It'd be like me going to church to try to give of my C&G habit.
  8. I saw that, too...and promptly figured out who most likely did it. Whatever, some people revel in drama because they lack sufficient hobbies Don't assume you know who it was. I was surprised by it (not someone who stirs up drama around here)
  9. Oh dear... http://www.autoblog....ts-new-four-cy/ http://www.emercedes...more-efficient/ Don't forget that BMW is heading that way too, starting with the Z4 and most likely moving to the 1- and 3-Series and 5-series. Fixed that for ya. They already have the 4-cylinder available in Germany, just not with a turbo. The turbo will make the 4-cylinder more palatable to SMK's BMW-Humpers' tastes. When I had one 2 years ago, the NVH was such that I thought it was a diesel until I went to fill it up.
  10. I'm curious as to why 3 of us got -1s for what we said... especially from the person to did the down repping.
  11. Though Dwight, isn't there that 8-speed in the works as well?
  12. Not since the winter.
  13. I'm sure those are special AMG 4-cylinders that aren't used in any other MB models.
  14. We had the rear differential filled about 2 years ago.
  15. I stayed on the gas long enough to burn a good size hold in the lawn.
  16. no on/off switch
  17. Ok, so we had the Honda CR-V in the back yard over the weekend. It was a slight upward incline, on slightly wet grass. I tried to move the car a bit further up and instead of crawling up the hill, I just spun the front tires.. the rear never engaged. I tried backing and pulling forward. I reached the same spot with the same result, forward tires spinning, no motion from the rears. Zero unusual noises. Am I not getting something about all wheel drive? Did Honda not understand the concept? Or is it going to the dealer service department next week?
  18. And... thread. you don't need any other responses.
  19. Voted yes and tweeted the link out to our 576 followers
  20. He probably would have heeded the multiple warnings that were handed to Bush.
  21. From a housing standpoint, I would rent for at least the first year.
  22. You know what I'm curious about? Why the car was out for 2 years in other countries and GM wasn't able to shake this problem out of the system.
