Dodge Nitro - Spy pics w/ interior
Durn, I guess I'm the only one who sees a bit of H3 in the gun slit side windows. From the spy pictures, it appears to be better looking than the shovel-chin Durango.

Audi Shooting Brake Concept
Very cool. I love the shooting brake bodystyle in general, as it combines sport, style and utility with emphasis on sport. The interior is TIGHT. Makes me want a Kappa Nomad even more. Next Mini will have a shooting brake available as well.

GUESS THE PECKER
Ok, let's get this party started. I only have one picture so far. A big ol' THANK YOU to the brave soul who risked everything to share this little part of himself. See if you can match the pic to the member: Come on, guys! I need more pictures. Don't be shy!

Reviewing the '06's
I don't believe that RWD is inherently heavier than FWD. I mean, it still has to have a transmission/transaxle and a differential whether it's all stuffed up front under and around the engine or separated by a driveshaft.

2006 Monte Carlo
Prices are finally up at Chevy.com, so if anyone wants to build their own, have at it. It seems as though the LTZ has more standard features than the SS, but the SS has that awesome smallblock.

Your home handyman talents...
It was finally a nice day here today, so I decided to tackle a couple of small projects. I am soon getting a new door on the front of my house installed by others. I also have a side entrance door out of my garage and I wanted it to match the new front door, so I painted it from dark blue to white, added a new lockset and deadbolt, and put up a new motion-sensing light fixture above it. It looks nice and I'm proud of myself, but it took me freakin' forever. So, how handy are you guys with a hammer?

Not happy
While I agree that Buick needs help, this French naming thing is not new. Does anyone think the cars they were attached to made the names great and not the other way around? When the Invicta, Electra, Wildcat and Centurion names were phased out, Buick carried on. I think Lucerne is an elegant name that conjures up old-world class and a certain longevity. Give 'em a chance to show us this new car, and let's hope for a knockout flagship sedan above it, plus a coupe and convertible, and a crossover with graceful styling. The current Rendezvous is a shoebox with Buick styling cues barely etched into the surface.

The Thread for Crash Test Pics
Well, I suspect you cannot get any more direct in a comparison of old v. new with the above test.

I smell bad service
The plug would have been covered under warranty if it had been defective. It sounds to me like it was either crossthreaded or rounded off (wrong size wrench?) by them or the guys who changed it last time, that's not the plug's fault, that's user error. So I wouldn't say it was warrantable. The service advisor's attitude was reprehensible though. Sounds like he needs a good asskicking. Yes, it is very possible that your air filter was dirty enough to replace at that kind of mileage. You had every right to ask for the old parts.

Ever get weird PMs?
I've gotten PMs from people trying to draw me deeper into arguments here and telling me to mind my own effing business. But I don't let it bother me. I laugh it off. We're supposed to be having fun here I believe.

Ford Equator concept
It does look almost exactly like the current Escape greenhouse and doors. Reminds me of a Ranger-esque refresh. Perhaps the Escape will be the next Ford product to run for 25 years.

That sepia pic with her in the black lace thingy is my favourite.

Holden Efijy Concept!

Trims 'R' Us
They had to put it in there to take your mind off the 4 spoke wheel. This trim kit has been banned for all G6s with the 3 spoke wheel.

The Thread for Crash Test Pics
Empowah, look at your Cobalt pics again. The impact on the hood is only on the right side, see the finely crinkled sheetmetal and missing paint? The car hit a pole just outboard of the right frame rail and peeled everything back. The bumper impact bar is only damaged on the right end. This was not a height issue, the car hit something vertical.

Car Spotting
Agreed, z. The '06 Impala is a goodlooking car, substantial and big looking, yet sporty.

Interesting observations in Oshawa
Foglamps aren't standard on the Solstice. You prolly saw some without the fogs. I haven't seen one yet without them, as all the promo photos show the optional fogs.

my new girlfriend...
Hold on a minute Satty. Nothing was drooping in that photo I sent you, why you gotta dis me in your artwork? <_<
