Okay....I'll play. To all the cars I've had before.

Sure, I've had plenty of cars, but I kept the one that mattered and 42 years later it means more than ever. Through divorce, financial bad times, years of little interest.....through it all, I kept it. At times I wasn't sure why, but I kept it. Good luck getting it from me now. [img]http://www.compute...

(Preview)
Okay from those with more experience. I need your opinions on how bad you think the quarter is before I do anything further. The quarter panel on the driver side was the bad spot on my car. I don't know how rotted/bad it is. What do you think? Does it need a new quarter? Anyway of telling besides sanding the...

Roadmasters
(Preview)
Hi guys, yesterday while I was at an event with my stepson I noticed a mid 90's Roadmaster station wagon near the parking lot that looked as if it hadn't been used for a couple of years. It was being used for storage as far as I could tell. Forgot to get a picture. It has the nice wheels and appears to be a pre...

A Bad Day for Toyota

I read this on The Truth About Cars (www.thetruthaboutcars.com) "It might be a bad day for GM but its a much worse one for Toyota. Really. The days (really decades) of weak domestic manufacturers shooting themselves in the foot with bad design, poor assembly, and non-existent customer satisf...

Three Labrador retrievers - a brown, yellow and black - are sitting in the waiting room at the vet's office when they strike up a conversation. The black lab turns to the brown and says, "So why are you here?" The brown lab replies, "I'm a pisser. I piss on everything - the sofa, the drape...

Commercial for the "new" GM
(Preview)
Check it out, along with a classic of Lee Iaccoca for Chrysler. I agree with the ad agency guys, the GM one is full of self serving platitudes. Once they have actually accomplished something, do some ads, so they can talk about what they have done, not what they are gonna do. http://www.thenextwave....

Those of us in our 40's, 50's and 60's need to pause for a moment and just think of the news story this morning. General Motors has declared bankruptcy.
