Mine was a long time ago, but thanks. It still aches wondering what kind of person he would be now.

I lost my firstborn in 2000. My wife got a uterine infection and it passed through to him and he was born at 28 weeks via emergency C-section. He lived a day. His mom had severe complications so she never got to see him alive except for two minutes in the OR.

Chrysler makes all of its money from Jeeps, pickups, and to a lesser extent minivans. The North American based cars are good, but the Fiat products are not really what we North Americans want. There really isn't much profit in a Fiat 500 and I doubt we would even sell it here if it wasn't to offset fuel economy of the…

I had one of these. I liked it. Yes, it was slow and heavy and not spectacular on fuel mileage, but I found it comfortable on long trips. Even now I still creep the car ads looking for another, or a Monte or Cutlass. This one is too far away and would need to go through customs but I will keep looking for a local one.

The only rebadging I ever wanted to do was on a Taurus I used to have. I wanted a Cli version but could never find that combination of letters at a wreckers. Yes, I wanted to drive a Cli Taurus.

Jeep has already got a full stable of AWD unibody soft-roaders. The Patriot, Compass, Renegade, Cherokee, and Grand Cherokee all fit the bill to greater or lesser extent in that they are primarily on road machines. The Wrangler, though, is it's own animal, unique in the marketplace. It's a terrible on road vehicle and…

I admit it. I'm a 14 year old boy trapped in a 44 year old man's body. My brain translates this as the "Cadillac Cootie Sex".

My story involves my youngest son, when he was still a baby. We were visiting my in-laws when he needed a change. My mother-in-law decided to do the job, so she laid out a towel and put him on her nearly new off-white couch.

That particular area of BC is among the crunchiest of all the granola areas on the planet. It is a truly beautiful place and the residents want to protect that. So I can understand the outrage. It's probably a better response than the farmers near me in Alberta who have 20-30 rusting hulks that they won't sell, fix,…

I have a 2005 Pacifica. It is a known problem on the forums that the TIPM goes bad and causes various electrical oddities. In my case, the headlights randomly turn themselves on while parked unless I disable the automatic on feature. Also, the battery goes dead randomly so I never know if the car that worked perfectly…

I was wondering about the logistics behind this as well. I would suggest a dirty dish cloth, but that's just me. Or, perhaps an unlaundered sock from the dish washer.

It could just be that mayo is the most disgusting condiment known to mankind. Not sure why this is, it just is. Individually, the components are fine - eggs, oil, perhaps some dry mustard. Combine them and you have made Satan's jizz. If I get mayo in or on my food, I can't eat it. I know it's a psychological…

So what happens if the two Kens meet? Is it like when you are time traveling and you aren't supposed to talk to an earlier version of yourself or a rift in the space time continuum will destroy the universe? Or do they explode in a cloud of narcissism and plastic? So many unanswered questions.

The first generation Golf (Rabbit) sold in North America. Hands down, it wins the worst car award. It had a body that loved to rust, padding in the seats that had disintegrated into powder by the time I owned it (it was only 13 years old by then), a cowl designed to route rainwater into the passenger compartment via…

Living in Alberta as I do, I can say the demographics of people who a) love pickups, b) want more power, c) have the means to make such a purchase, and d) lack impulse control would ensure a steady stream of customers. The regular Ram sells very well here, especially in top of the line Laramie editions. A special…

I wonder if Justin has any real friends, ones who aren't after his money or fame or anything? Not sure that he does and that makes me sad. A true friend might tell him to knock it off when he goes overboard.

Give me a big, wide, low 4 door sedan with a torquey powerful V8 and make it the flagship, above the Navigator in price and options. Make options for it a la Mercedes and Porsche where interior, wheel and entertainment systems are desirable add-ons but even the base car comes more luxuriously appointed than the…

My sister had very unpredictable diet issues. Often without any warning, her stomach rebelled and she needed to vomit RIGHT NOW DAMMIT.

I used to be a restaurant manager in a restaurant that had a red-headed girl as a mascot. One afternoon a customer came to me and said "There's a problem in the women's washroom."

My work trucks are Dodge 3500 duallies with Cummins 6.7 and Aisin 6 speed automatics. There always seems to be a recall about the suspension - left tie rod ends are the newest one. I'm not in love with the truck, it just does it's job.
