Cats are better than both. They use their own toilet. They let themselves in and out. Toys = paper grocery bag, bits of string, or random fluff found under the dresser. Protect the house from vermin Self bathing. Simply feed and water....and buy one of those automatic litter disposal things.

What really burns me is that at any plant that isn't already producing at capacity, the workers will get overtime during the catchup.

but the UAW continued to live and suck the life out of GM..... I'm suggesting the UAW cease to exist.

sacrificing the #1 sales volume slot to cripple the UAW this year might just be worth it for next year.

Avalanche, Suburban and Tahoe are built in Mexico, no?

All your bases are belong to us!

If I had more time/money, I'd head up to whichever plant has the most media spotlight and stage an anti-Union protest.

Benefits of banish the UAW from the earth.

it forgets me every time I switch computers.... and I have 4 of them plus my Treo that I surf with on the bus.

UAW, why don't go do something useful.... like unionize Toyota.. after all, they're American now.

The fed rate cut last week is only going to make things worse in that regard. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw an additional cut before Xmas.

if the trooper wanted you, he was going to get you from behind anyway..... wait.... that didn't come out right.

Cheap in a Timex clock sort of way? Or cheap in a way where you can pull the center stack apart with your bare hands like TED! did at an autoshow on a Camry?

You can't handle the fruit!!

I keep a pot of hot Earl Gray on my desk till about noon then I switch to cans of Dr. Pepper. Otherwise, I'm non-functional.

Never was big on the look of the Aero-bird. I liked the Aero-Cats and Mark VIIs, but they handled like a pig on rollerskates. The whole platform felt very front heavy... something you wouldn't expect in a RWD car. I remember going around an elevated clover leaf in the rain and feeling the rear end slide out just a little every time we passed over an expansion joint. As for the Taurus... it was a completely new look for the era. It also proved that bland sells. It was the best selling family car in America till it's redesign.. when it was replaced by the equally bland Camry.

Arnold is not pro-gay rights. The legislature has passed a pro-gay marriage bill twice and he's vetoed it twice.

What do you make of this? Well, I could make a broach, or a hat, or a pterodactyl....

If the next one is cute like the last one was, I may try hitting on him.......

I was watching CSI Miami today on OnDemand and they play two '08 CTS ads. The first one's tag line is "You can either be the nail that sticks out.... or you can be the hammer." but the best one goes "In the luxury car game, it no longer about if your car has a 40 gigabyte hard drive, it's not about pop up navigation screens, it's not about ultra-view sunroofs, or Zexxxxx wood trim..... The question is... when you turn your car on... does it return the favor?" Then the hot woman behind the wheel gives a smirk and raises her eyebrow. Run' em everywhere GM

Whoops, thanks. I've taken the Acela to DC before too.

Very true. If a classic car is running poorly, usually owners opt not to drive it till it's repaired. that is... unless you consider a 1983 Dodge Caravan a classic.....

3 to 5 years ideally. depends on if I meet a nice German guy and settle down. Whatever happens, I'm not returning to Pittsburgh to live.

I bought the CTS new, Avalanche used. Having just learned that the Camaro will be for sale in Germany.... that makes my purchase decision in 16-18 months a little more difficult. What better to prowl around on the Autobahn with than America's best sedan or best coupe?
