  1. On Saturday we got snow in the morning and for what ever reason the salt trucks never came out. All of the snow that cars were driving on got compacted and turned to ice. After I dropped my BF off at work and I was headed back home, I spotted a Port Authority bus crossing onto the same bridge I needed to cross. At the end of this bridge, I have two choices to go home once I've crossed the bridge. One choice sends me down another bridge town, the other choice takes me up a hill. Up the hill is where the bus heads. I look down onto the other bridge and watch a Suburban slide into the back of Focus. Scratch that route. I decide to take my chances behind the bus. The bus stops half way up the hill to pickup/drop off. I think "Oh hell, I'm never getting home now! There's no way the bus will be able to take off again in this weather!" To my surprise, with no drama at all, the bus just takes off back up the hill. The Pruis behind the bus but in front of me however........ yay for hyperactive traction control that you can't disable.
  2. I agree that the materials are first rate and solid. Pity they just didn't line up right. My sample size is 1, however.
  3. Proof that it's not the getting there, but the going that is good.
  4. All of that is invisible when you have an overlap like this
  5. The C-class has really grown on me also. A friend of mine sometimes picks me up to head into downtown for work has one. Love the exterior look and the interior is conservative but attractive. It was only on closer inspection that I was surprise at how a bunch of the seams didn't line up when it was clear that's what was intended.
  6. I wonder how they managed that FWD overhang then.
  7. K, how about this. I layered the MKS over the XF Edit: Wiki thinks that the XF is on an updated S-type platform, but that can't be right. There is something fishy going on with the XF and what it rides on.
  8. Barack Obama - Green collar jobs * Ensure 10 percent of Our Electricity Comes from Renewable Sources by 2012, and 25 percent by 2025. * Deploy the Cheapest, Cleanest, Fastest Energy Source -- Energy Efficiency - Obama and Biden will set an aggressive energy efficiency goal -- to reduce electricity demand 15 percent from projected levels by 2020. * Weatherize One Million Homes Annually - Obama and Biden will make a national commitment to weatherize at least one million low-income homes each year for the next decade, which can reduce energy usage across the economy and help moderate energy prices for all. * Develop and Deploy Clean Coal Technology - Obama’s Department of Energy will enter into public private partnerships to develop five “first-of-a-kind” commercial scale coal-fired plants with clean carbon capture and sequestration technology. * Prioritize the Construction of the Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline - As president, Obama will work with stakeholders to facilitate construction of the pipeline. Not only is this pipeline critical to our energy security, it will create thousands of new jobs.
  9. It's not too shabby for being platform shared with a Ford though.....
  10. pity all of that material doesn't end up in a more attractive than the CTS package.
  11. There's a RWD, Subaru based sports car coming from Toyota.
  12. There is also a new version for gays and a version for lesbians. Finally... there really was Adam and Steve.
  13. You?! Defending a GM product against an import?!
  14. I like this one the best.
  15. It's not the current employees, it's the retirees and the people in the jobs bank. Active worker for active worker, GM and Toyota pay about the same.
  16. :omfg: oh.... .wait....
  17. Your point stands, but your facts are again wrong. Stop stretching the truth to make your points. Lacrosse - 198in LS460 - 198in
  18. Not true. It's being shown on CNBC
  19. Whoever thought of that gets an "F" for understanding the problem.
  20. I'm thinking Rick give up on DC and fly the private jet to Libya instead.
  21. Wait, 1 in 3 will be affected immediately or in a year and there is even a debate?
  22. You need to post that often and all over
