Happy birthday!

The Salon was an awkward body style with an awkward name.

I've always gone by your latter definition, Drew, of a wagon being about the same length as a sedan of the same model and a hatchback being significantly shorter. At least for compacts. With European mid-size cars, the hatchback styles typically are the same length as sedan styles but have a sedan-like or fastback profile, so they remain very different from the wagons.

The WRTA services Youngstown and surrounding areas, but Leavittsburg's a pretty small town and not really part of the Youngstown area. The buses don't even get very far into Warren, let alone this far out. It's at least a 10-minute drive from here to anywhere interesting or useful. It's about 35-40 minutes to YSU. It's a very straightforward commute and I've grown accustomed to it, but it's far from a joyous driving experience. In fact, ever since I started driving the idea of a joyous driving experience has seemed like a pretty strange concept to me. Does everyone else drive a different race track to work everyday? Or does having 350 HP really make stop and go traffic that much more exciting? I can't recall ever having a single ounce of fun while I was trying to drive somewhere. At its best it's methodical and uneventful, and at its worst (when I don't know where i'm going) it's nerve wracking and sometimes far too eventful. Last time I drove to Pittsburgh I got lost, then crashed, then got even more lost, with a van full of people. That was a painful and embarassing experience and only my already low confidence in my driving ability. If my van had had an autopilot, I probably would've gotten my freinds to our destination on time, I wouldn't have ruined that poor lady in the Elantra's day, my insurance rate would probably not have got up, and I just might have given it a hug when I got home instead of beating myself up. And if the van somehow managed to crash anyway, at least I wouldn't have to blame myself.

Not from Leavittsburg to Youngstown, there isn't. In fact there isn't a bus from Leavittsburg to anywhere.

I wish my car would drive itself on my school commute. And the next time I have to drive to Pittsburgh. If it did then I wouldn't have caused two accidents due to my incompetence and attention deficit.

First facelifted Acura RL I've seen since it was released in '09.

That looks like a Pininfarina badge on the fender. That's all I can tell.

That name's a mouthfull.

They fall under "related WB cartoons." So most definitely. What counts as "adult themes?"

Wow, that was a lot longer that I thought it'd be at first. I wish they had had an overview of the whole thing.

This. The entire entertainment industry the world over needs to be rebuilt from the ground up in an entirely different paradigm.

I wish people would stop comparing cars that don't look anything like the Batmobile to the Batmobile. I would so rock an Avantime all over the place.

Thanks for fixing it :-)

GM International ???

The whole of Looney Tunes and related WB cartoons.

Variations of "have got" -- we've got, I've got, etc. -- are perfectly acceptable English.

Tried it in Firefox, Chrome and Safari, same result each time.

Like, it doesn't work at all. Just to let you know. Anymore that's the area I prefer to talk.

White or beige '76-'77 Pontiac Lemans

What Olds said. The range-extended electric is the way to go.

Remember this thing, Camino? The bits you said you liked from that, I think I see in this.

I'm chopping it a bit right now.
