The description honestly reminds me a bit of the flavor of Dr. Pepper. Fruity sweet undertones with a bit of clove and some other warm spice flavors.

To someone who wants one with this low mileage, it’s pretty much the market price. There are just so few of them out there. Personally, it’s more than I would pay. Two years ago a tree fell on mine in the driveway. I had it professionally appraised at $8,500 for the insurance settlement at the age and mileage it was,…

Well, I don’t know if Rowan Atkinson is an expert on electric vehicles, but he does at least have a master’s degree in electrical engineering.

The hood and front fascia can be very hard to come by, but other parts mostly aren’t bad yet. Most of the engine parts are shared with the turbo PT Cruiser, and most of the body parts are standard Neon, of course. Between those two, a lot were made, so a lot of salvage parts are still available. That’s going to…

They’re great for mounting winter tires. Maybe not what’s going on here, since it’s not really driven, but they do have a winter-tire looking tread at the side in that first pic.

I’m getting old, so I thought it was pretty fun the time in the 80's when the host was “Paul Simon,” and the musician and the Senator both walked onstage.

I’ve found it usually works if I open the format toolbar, then click to put the cursor on a new blank line, *then* click the image button. If I don’t do the step to click and reposition the cursor first, it won’t insert the picture.

No worries!

It says right in the subhead, “Tell us your secret 1973-1983 desires....”

Based on looks, at least, the casting seems really spot-on to me. I was only old enough to start watching SNL in about 1980, but I’ve seen a lot of reruns and clips from the older shows.

Unfortunately, dad is 79 and had a major stroke last year. He won’t ever drive again. :( I’ve been pretty swamped just trying to get their bills paid and other paperwork handled and so forth, but I have it fairly under control now, so maybe I’ll get the car out and see what it needs this spring.

We have a fair number of members in the Shelby Dodge club driving these ‘83's.

My parents have one of those. Only 28K miles on it! It’s just been sitting in the garage for probably 10 years now.

First shots have already been fired with Frank’s RedHot ad slogan.

He also starred in season 2 of The Afterparty on Apple TV. I found that to be a really funny and enjoyable show, but it doesn’t get much mention anywhere.

Sometime back in the ‘90's I went to a KFC that was out of chicken somehow.

If necessary I’ll be able to escape from my Neon SRT-4 that way. Except that I’ll have to crawl into the back seat first, since infamously only the rear windows are manual!

The MKZ is a beautiful car. I have the Windows CE-based SYNC 2, and I actually like the *design* of it, mostly. Except for navigation, which has possibly the worst user interface I’ve ever seen in a piece of software. I’ve used the later system in other cars, and while it has more features and is faster, the design…

My local one is pretty bad. Every once in a while I forget or something, and give it another shot. But it always is still terrible. Just last month my wife and I took my father-in-law there, because that’s where he wanted to go. I had a grilled chicken breast dish of some kind that had an incredibly bad texture. It…

My first job in high school was at Hardee’s, just about the time they started serving biscuits. I was surprised to find that they were made from scratch, with a lady coming in at 3:00 every morning to make the day’s biscuit dough. I also always thought it was funny that the biscuits were completely made from scratch,…
