I laugh at all of this, since Toyota doesn't seem to be losing any money, yet you're all acting as if its their desperate attempt at staying afloat.

First of all, sorry about the accident. Second of all, listen to 68 and 'blu. Ask yourself if its worth it, I mean really worth all of the hassle and expense. The memories will still be there even if the car isnt.

Thats what we've been saying to him for as long as I can remember.

I agree, sorta. The 4-door does look goofy, so did the last Wrangler Unlimited, with the stretch that didn't increase rear seat room at all. I love the idea of a 4-door Wrangler, I really do, but the new Unlinited has an awkward look to it that I didn't notice at first, or even when they started hitting the streets. It wasn't until I saw one on the road with a previous gen Wrangler right behind. The 2-door soft top is what a Wrangler is, and adding two doors, or extra length, while a logical move, just makes it look strange. The execution on the Jeep Dakar concept was much better, it looked like a 4-door Wrangler that was designed to be a 4-door Wrangler, the one on the streets doesn't.

+1I wouldn't even bitch if it were FE/FWD (though there could be some really interesting things as a result of RE/RWD), as long as it looks good, handles well and gets great mileage.

Thats cool, even cooler than my beloved Mini.

I've only got the one friend I can think of who has had a Dodge, he sold it a couple of months ago. All of my other anti-Chrysler rhetoric comes from my own meandering experience.

I may never buy a new PC again, I'll stick with my 2 XP machines then go Mac.

QFT, I could change the tire on the Solara in 6 minutes flat. Easiest car ever in that regard, the standard jack was awesome.

FWD FTW:

Not going to argue with that. I was driving by the Nissan dealership and there was an Altima coupe partially blocked by a Versa and I wondered why a G6 was parked in front of a Nissan/Chrysler dealer.

Have you not noticed that the Altima coupe looks very very similar to the G6?

I go very few places without my iPod. I agree about the sounds of nature part, but realistically all I can hear from most of the bike trails I ride is the sound of traffic. If I go to the lake, it'll be the same thing, since its right next to the trail I ride that goes under a highway or two. I did find a couple of good places on the river to go kayaking, problem is there are always a lot of people at the fishing accesses during the summer.

I'd like to see it as a Saturn, but with a little less G6 in the greenhouse.

Bet you'd also make more money selling Hondas or Toyotas.

Yeah, I know, this one is pretty much going to be a toy to learn and get comfortable, like buying a beater car to learn to drive a stick. I do a bit of river floating with my friends, so this will be used on rivers quite a bit. A second kayak, more appropriate for lakes, is in the cards, but good ones are pricey, this one wasn't.

Some really cool entries so far.

To be exact, I bought this kayak. Not the best money can buy, sure, but the color does come close to matching the color of my bike, so thats something. It'll be a good one to get some experience on, since I've only kayaked a couple of times. I wont have a chance to get it out on the lake this weekend, but sometime during the week I am definitely going out, all I need is a paddle, already have a PFD and waterproof iPod holder.
