@FromaBuick6: Now with more 5.0: You really end up wondering what other people do with their cars. My BMW was driven aggressively. It was detailed once a decade. It had been offroaded. I camped in it. I used it to move cross country, twice. I towed my sailboat with it. I left it sitting in the yard for 3 years. I…

My 1988 BMW 325. I bought it from my father in 1994, kept it until spring of 2007. I was moving back to California, and it had never really thrieved on California gas when I'd lived here previously. I figured that if I ever got too nostalgic, I'd be able to find a better one. The only problem is that in spite of the…

@GasGuzzler: When I was in Costa Rica in 1995, many of the police drove around in luxury SUVs with Florida plates, be they dealer or private. The stolen Grand Cherokees looked just like they did on Dateline, being loaded into containers by crooked union Longshoremen.

@owen-magnetic: Ah, the 'I don't have the capacity to connect the dots' defense. It doesn't play in my circles. Save it for arguing with other progressives.

@Ninety-9: What does it have to do with the success of the F-150? If you combine Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra(badge engineered versions of the same truck) sales, the total is roughly the same as for the Ford F-150. The Dodge Ram also sold in multiples of the Prius total over the same period. And once again, these…

Trust me, I still want a stick with a 302 in a Samarai. And a narrowed axle. And a transfer case. Puff, puff.

@Ninety-9: How about F-150 to Prius? It would be about 6 to 1. This is a comparison of GLOBAL Prius sales to US pickup sales, so it already advantages the Prius to offset there being a few different trucks that sell in volume.

@wheatieboy: Watching this from the outside through the prism of international news agencies just makes you a mushroom: kept in the dark and fed with bullshit. The best thing Clinton ever did was ejaculate on a prom dress. It prevented him from passing any of his destructive policy objectives and kept him at the mercy…

@wheatieboy: They absolutely should have been allowed to fail. As a private company, they were welcome to run themselves into the ground. Now, they're part of the team that is destroying us all.

@owen-magnetic: Because he doesn't understand why they're happy to have her there. If the shoe fits.

@Pinkerton Proletariat: I'm more concerned that it adds up to only 18% of the money wasted by our federal government. Throw in the money spent by the states, much of it pissed away because of unfunded mandates by the federal government, and far too much of our economy is controlled by a bunch of people who couldn't…

@Lahjik: Unlike you, I can see Jessica Simpson's talent. You might be straight, but you're not a straight man.

@Lahjik: Still bitter about don't ask, don't tell?

@Daga: Designer white flags.

@Pinkerton Proletariat: I don't have much use for the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute or the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation either, but what's that got to do with the price of eggs?

How many other cars could you have ripped the rear bumpers off without making them look worse?

@fatfrank72: That there are 'people' who bugrudge our servicemen their USO visits in wartime is a bit nauseating.

I loathe Nissan. I think they make some of the worst cars on the market and treat their customers with contempt. Still, Bovat has all the credibility of a defense attorney.

@Jones Foyer: Less than it costs us when Michelle Obama gets out of bed.

They should make the whole car out of whatever that rollbar is made out of! What is that, steel or something?
