I stay very bleeding edge. I'm running Windows Vista RC1 now..... have been for about a week and not looking back. I dual boot to Ubuntu Linux.

You're thinking P IV. Celerons are newer than PIII.

yum

These new banner ads look like drug ads. "Find out if Versa is right for you" To learn more "Download PDF", where download pdf is in a pill shape. Versa (next generation subcompact) And of course touting the 36mpg highway What Nissan hasn't seemed to realize is everyone hates drug ads. Are people going ga-ga over 36mpg in this car? Mom's old '94 base Bonneville could do 32mpg highway if you were gentle. Cobalts and 4-cylinder Malibus hit 36 mpg no problem. V6s do 33.

awesome, you can be our mole on the inside....

Is this the same receptionist that hits on you trinacriabob? And no, tampering with someone's mail, even if the mail is recieved at a place of business is still illegal. dunno about FedEx, UPS though....

Lock yourself in a garage with a SULEV vehicle running for 40 minutes.... once you return you can tell us about how cars are cleaner than the enviroments they are in...... we'll wait...

crap that interior is HOT!

what about the oil fields that have already run dry? The earth replaces the fish in the North Atlantic with more fish.... ask the local fisherman how things are these days.

Chas has driven some of those 6 wheel drive Army trucks.

but.... do you have any advice for us when in China?

I'm sure fly could have pulled it off. on a semi-related note, aren't B-52s supposed to be able to land at up to a 45 degree angle?

Probably fairly well. From what I understand, the A380 has rear turbulance issues that end up effecting fuel economy. As far as jumbo jets go, the '47 is fairly efficient on a fuel per person per mile measurement. The 380, not so much. So the Americans are probably thinking: "With the A380, I'll have 500 people on the plane, but I'll spend more per person on fuel, and have to upgrade my terminal facilities, maintanence trucks and only operate them out of limited airports. With the '47, I just swap it out for one of my old models with less capacity.... and I save on fuel.... and I don't have to make any terminal upgrades" Of course if you're Richard Bransonm you simply say to Airbus, "Is there anything you can do about my incredibly small penis?"

Aren't the only airports in the US that can even handle the 380 without major upgrades, LAX, JFK, DFW, and ORD? The only US carriers to buy A380s are UPS and FedEx at 10 each.

probably the Middle east spec car....

well, now we get to the crux of the problem...... Still, in a modern day situation, two very similar sized sedans, similar power, both with stability control, one FWD, one RWD. In the same hands, which would do better? If my mother was driving, probably the TL. If I were driving, it'd probably be a wash. That is the question most people ask in their heads when shopping for a car. There aren't too many Chevette/Corvette crossshoppers anymore.

I use the auto-manual shift feature in the CTS often.

Go GM Go! I just bought more this morning on my automatic purchase plan...

indeed. I'm curious though, which would end up fairing better in a snowy emergency, a CTS with Stabilitrack or a TL Type-S with stability control. Much closer, and more likely, comparison. Isn't the Chevette also RWD?

for Josh?

that people need to be extra careful in the snow because all cars have All-Wheel brakes?

The clover leaf in question...

only $250,000? that's gotta suck for the saps that already bought the $500,000 non-running model
