Does this ever happen to anyone else? You see an odd looking couple and your first thought is what it might look like with them getting it on? Thanks @jedwardm; your comment just swung my mind into that nasty gutter. Now I need a brain scrub.

@engineerd: Wow; that just makes way too much sense! And for that you get a heart click-thingy!

@nhubbell84: Well, if you seriously think that you're not paying enough for gas, let me oblige you by charging an additional tax. Keep track of your gasoline purchases, and for every gallon you purchase, send me one dollar. In fact, I'd invite anyone who feels they pay too little for fuel to do the same; you'd all be…

So now GM can bring what would have been the G8 Ute on board with the bowtie instead, and call it El Camino.

@Pete Gaines: Point taken, but those aren't nearly as much fun to heckle.

Wonderful. Can I order a set with the word 'FAIL' on them?

Do you really have that painting hanging in your kitchen? There must not be a Mr(s?) Martin in the picture then. That or the SO must be very accommodating.

Wow, I have one busy week, then no time to browse the Jalop until Sunday, and I find my world turned upsidown. Crap. At least Jalopnik will be worth looking at on the weekends. During the week? Not so much anymore.

@Van Sarockin: I'll occasionally forget to lock the doors on my car overnight; there have been three times it's been ransacked overnight, and the thief has made off with little more than spare change and a cheap gadget or two. Except once he made off with a pair of prescription glasses I use for driving, as if he…

Murilee! It's so great to have you back! Can you tell you've been missed?

@wkiernan: Easy way to fix the boat-like handling is to replace the shocks with sturdy steel tubing. Stiff as a buckboard, baby, and body roll is totally a non-issue.

Just a thought; any bets on whether that's actually Daschle's car? SD license plate number AJA 853. Probably belonged to some grunt staffer who thought it was so cool to have his clunker in a campaign ad for the boss. Wouldn't surprise me in the least.

@mobilene: I suggested that a while back. Never did get a response from Mur; somebody's playin' hard to get.

@philibuster: Why would you warm up a hybrid (or standard ICE) in Memphis? Chicago, I could understand, but Memphis?

Wow. Just how could anybody resist a face like this?

Call me crazy, but I would pay $2k for that car. In fact, I just bought an '84 528e for a little less than half this guy's asking price (my own PCH), and would gladly have paid the balance for the shiny red paint and the absence of a few of the issues mine has.

Nekkid as a jaybird.

@grzydj: He never was the 'good old boy' he claimed to be.

@oilburner: Wouldn't that be like trying to pimp the nerdy girl with pimples from your AP Trig class? Wouldn't sell.

They're losing money, but at least it's their own, and not taxpayer-provided. Yet.
