First new car
I'd probably do what my parents did and give my kid an old hand-me-down beater. Besides my old war wagon of an Oldsmobile lasted up until 150,000 miles beforei t broke totally down.

NEW FIT
I hate these cars, I hate these cars, God help me, I do so hate these cars.

Halloween by Rob Zombie
I'm not surprised. I was never that big a fan of the Halloween movies...though the series still didn't suck as bad as Friday the 13th.

$25,000? Is he f@#king kidding? I wouldn't buy that thing for $600.

Styling trends you hate
The wonton use of spoilers. Performance-oriented models make sense, but a bleeding Dodge Caravan doesn't need one!

Labor Day Weekend Plans?
Work, work and some more work.

CONCEPT: Ford Verve
Not bad, but knowing Ford, they'll water it down too much.

DCX to become DAI
I tried to care less about this, but I just can't.

Impressed I'm not.

Hey GM, One Truck Brand Only Please!
Ah, I still don't think its a good idea for Pontiac to get the axe though.

General Motors should quit making everything

Hey GM, One Truck Brand Only Please!
Hey, that's actually not a bad idea. I'd keep Chevrolet as it the brand that sells in the highest volume, but I wouldn't necessarily say "kill GMC". It might work more efficienty as GM's commercial brand.

Would-Be Classic Cars
As far as classic cars or collector's cars go, there's really no way of telling what cars are going to make it there. I doubt that Chevrolet really anticipated back in the 50s that the Bel Air and Impala were going to wind up being classics fifty years later. Fifty years from now, the world might revere the '08 Malibu as much as we all revere the '57 Bel Air now.

Why has the PT not been put on the Caliber Chassis?
Its important to me because I still give a crap where my cars are built.

MADE IN CHINA, if that's what you want
Ah...yeah, I'm now definitely going to do everything in my power to avoid Chinese-made products. I go out and buy a lava lamp the other day. I take everything out of the box and put it all together. Well, most of it because it was missing that little cap that goes right on the top of the glass. Yep, I look at the box and see that it was made in China. I just took it back to the store. I didn't get a replacement, I just wanted my $15 back.

The "new" Fiero.....
There was a girl I took out on a few dates back in April who drove a Fiero. I really should've asked her if I could drive it instead of taking my car. Damn my gentlemanly behavior.

All set for $5 gas?
*groans* Here comes a monkey wrench in my financial situation. $5 gas would officially make filling up my tank a major purchase.

Why has the PT not been put on the Caliber Chassis?
I'm not against moving the PT to the Caliber chassis if it means production gets moved to America.

Do People Ask You for Directions?
I was sitting in a McDonald's once when an old couple came up to me asking directions to Port Huron. That McDonald's was right next to the expressway that leads directly to Port Huron...in fact, that expressway freaking ENDS at Port Huron.

So what's the employment picture in Australia?
Today's America is ridiculous. Not everyone is cut out for college and those people shouldn't be looked down upon or be subject only to low-paying jobs because of it. America is supposed to be the land of opportunity, after all.

Should the Corvette abandon the V8 for an I6?
Putting a 6 of any kind into the Corvette would only hurt the image of the car.
