@w204: Yeah, problem was that the Rav4 market was getting smaller. So they made it a midsize cheap-o...made in Canada unibody Mall Crawler.

@flateric_bg: In 5 years babies will have to be packed in styrofoam and encased in a steel fireproof lockbox before you leave the house. It will weigh around 300lbs and will need an engine hoist to place into the car. But don't worry.

Here is the problem.

@zipeater: Nice one! You win the Troll of the day!

@chicago256241: Well, there have been some major breakthroughs in the last 5 years including the Piggybac technique. But the embryonic stem cell has a lot of goodies in it that could cure things in the future. People today don't talk about how many dogs were killed in the treatment for Diabetes. They just know…

@Priper: An HIV cure worries you? I hope you aren't thinking that a cure would cause recklessness in sexual activity. Any cure to a terrible disease is good news...regardless of how its transmitted.

@Michael Scrip: I dont know, but the first "20 minute update" took me almost an hour...Go figure!

I forked out over $800 for my ps3 back in 2006.

@Triborough: At least the Detroit public schools are not a cost burden to the other 49 states.

@imaeffinginger: I am not sure myslef, but its safe to say that the stripe cost the general public around $100,000 to design/engineer!

@superflanker00su: At least if you burned the money, your only out the $225,000.

They should have sent the proceeds to Detroits biggest charity...

@LastAndLeast: Its full of Oil refineries, slack jaws, and broken dreams.

@Flathead Smith and the Screaming Straight Pipes: At least the government airlifted the people out, and it only took a day. Nobody died..

@Panhardrod: Tire Chains, banned in Ontario...the main problem was that the highway was backed up and there was nowhere to go. You could have the worlds best 4x4, and still end up camping overnight!

2 Years ago(around this time) I was driving from Saginaw, Michigan to Kitchener, Ontario, where I used to live. The trip took 8 hours vs the 3.5 it would normally take.

Here is Carolla talking about the new Top Gear usa...he never mentions this new show. But he did talk about shooting something with SPEEDTV in Pomona, CA at some old car swap meet....

@sixtwo: He is also a car guy, and actually knows how to race...perhaps this will work.

Too much awesome. GM should use this sorta stuff in their advertisements, instead of dropping 4000lbs in the back of a pickup bed!
