(Not that I look at those, but I like to observe numbers...and when I do, I see and relate to them in different ways... In 1492, Columbus sailed the Ocean Blue. A little ditty that helped us remember in history class what year Christopher sailed and discovered...America. Edited April 6, 20187 yr by oldshurst442
April 6, 20187 yr And because I mentioned the words "a little ditty". I would now like to recite to you a little ditty about Jack and Diane. Jack and Diane were two American kids growing up in the heart land. Jack was to be a football star while Diane lost her virginity in the backseat of Jack's car. Just to say...that life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone. We might as well hold on to sixteen as long as we can, we are only young once you know, never regret a thing you do, repent and marry the girl you love, even if you had pre-marital sex countless of times with her. Treat her right. Life goes on. Yup...Jack and Diane, doing the best they can! Now...Im gonna sing it you. Well. Not me. A nice American boy by the name of John, THE cougar, Mellencamp will. I forgot...you now must throw a little rock. You got to let it roll! Rock on! Edited April 6, 20187 yr by oldshurst442

Maybe one of my favorite lines ever in a song...that resonates so much with me as I get older. Another line by Mellencamp I also like is 'little pink houses for you and me'---a variation of that was my mantra in my house hunting in 2016, but it was 'little brick suburban houses for you and me'....
April 7, 20187 yr • Was in another $1.4M home today- no street-view pic; it's buried behind trees. Got a few weeks of work coming up in there. I'd like to slow down tho : M,-T, Th-F would be nice. Other than the house addition I did a few years ago, I've never had this much work stacked in my Inbox before. Finding it stressful. - - - - -

April 8, 20187 yr Best Pothole of 2018 Award goes to Pittsburgh! This happened about a mile from my house. I used that highway all the time.

April 8, 20187 yr 4 minutes ago, dfelt said: Did the rain and snow cause it to give way? Yeah, a lot of runoff would build up on the high side. And the retaining wall on the low side has been there since 1929.
April 8, 20187 yr Do you sing in the shower or elsewhere in your abode? Do certain places remind you of certain songs? When in Pensacola, I always think (never fails) of Jimmy Buffett's song "Creola," (great, smooth flowing Jimmy Buffett song obviously about the South) and I might sing it in my hotel room. Not loud or anything, but sing it nonetheless. What's weird is when the housekeeper hears you and you know she has.

April 9, 20187 yr Had no idea till this morning when I saw this email from GM Performance that this year is 100 years of Chevy Trucks!
April 9, 20187 yr http://www.theblock.com/?article=968f871f-254a-4c82-b52a-c3000644a0df#news The build story of the C10 pickup with detailed pictures of doors, etc getting the treatment is awesome. Check it out!

April 9, 20187 yr And the SS shows the Silverado influence...busy, overwrought plastic cheese... Edited April 9, 20187 yr by Cubical-aka-Moltar
April 9, 20187 yr 8 minutes ago, Drew Dowdell said: Body color bumper one is fine. Blacked out bumper is terrible I think previous design looks a bit better
April 9, 20187 yr I anxiously await being able to look at, and sit in, a 2019 Ford Focus and the next-gen Dodge Charger. Edited April 9, 20187 yr by trinacriabob
April 9, 20187 yr I'm really wondering where Jeep goes with the next gen Grand Cherokee (and hoping they don't screw it up--no transverse 4cyl). And what about the rumored Ram based Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer--will that ever happen? Edited April 9, 20187 yr by Cubical-aka-Moltar
April 9, 20187 yr 1 hour ago, ccap41 said: 2019 Camaro refresh is out and it looks worse, imo. Yeah.....the SS kinda scared me a bit. I hope that's for cooling or something-looks really strange otherwise. Like the rear-other two models I saw were not bad though......

I've already seen a photoshop job where they used body color for the black grille area and it looks much better. The bow tie on the bumper instead of the grille looks turrible.
April 9, 20187 yr Body color sounds better...or maybe they should embrace the cheese and chrome it up, do a Camaro LTZ trim. Edited April 9, 20187 yr by Cubical-aka-Moltar

Is that even a photoshop? Is that not the RS?
April 9, 20187 yr I think the one with the bowtie in the center of the blacked out bumper, while the SS, was attempting (and failed) to go for an homage to the big grille 2nd gen RS front end...instead it looks like a '19 Silverado Trail Boss wannabe...
April 9, 20187 yr 31 minutes ago, Drew Dowdell said: Is that even a photoshop? Is that not the RS? The one I saw was on a Facebook group and it was the SS, not the above pictured one. I'll try and save it and post it here. This is what I was talking about, @Drew Dowdell
April 9, 20187 yr The red one appears to be a base w/ the 1LE trim? The blue one is the SS, at least according to the pics I've seen here and on the internet, like these on Motor Trend. http://www.motortrend.com/cars/chevrolet/camaro/2019/2019-chevrolet-camaro-first-look-review/

So your saying the one above is the 2017 and the below is the 2018 model? 2 hours ago, Cubical-aka-Moltar said: I'm really wondering where Jeep goes with the next gen Grand Cherokee (and hoping they don't screw it up--no transverse 4cyl).

I am highly concerned that Jeep will get screwed up with the Alfa crap platform garbage and that the Wagoneer / Grand Wagoneer will never happen till a new CEO or Owner comes in and realizes the need to clean house and shut down some brands.
April 9, 20187 yr After Looking at the Motortrend link, I think the RS looks better than the Roman Soldier helmet look that I HATED on the Chevy Full Size trucks. This is just sucky!

I actually kind of like all three of the current Pony cars right up until the point that I don't. Have lived with the rehashing of a 1960's idea my whole life. Am really really really amazingly astonishingly bone crushingly overwhelmingly ungodly mind bending skull f#$%^&@ ready for something different. Would take a GTI in the new green (sexy as hell IMHO) Golf R, WRX/STI, or a lot of other cars over this. That being said....for what it is....I actually really like it. But a hundred times more ready to have my enthusiasm go a different direction. 1 hour ago, dfelt said: After Looking at the Motortrend link, I think the RS looks better than the Roman Soldier helmet look that I HATED on the Chevy Full Size trucks.

Given FCA ability to screw things up and persist at Screwing things up, Jeep will be shut down in 2039 given current rate of management. 4 hours ago, trinacriabob said: I anxiously await being able to look at, and sit in, a 2019 Ford Focus and the next-gen Dodge Charger. Both cars I have no interest in really even looking at...but I value your opinion so interested in what you think.
April 9, 20187 yr 7 hours ago, Cubical-aka-Moltar said: I do like this one overall vs. the red job with the matte black hood. That one has a 'Chesire Cat' grin, and Camaros shouldn't be grinning- they should be angry. Those blue 'blades' thrusting forward are interesting.
