Re: Emily and the blaze orange -

I just take the first sip before handing it to the kid

Summer Scout camp, ahhh the memories!

My 2 year old son is named Owen, but I wasn't under any misapprehension that it was "unique", I just think it's a great name.

I hereby INSIST that Caswell perform every car review from this point forward. (And he should go review all previous cars done by anyone else).

Thanks, please see my comment above.

The only difference is the lack of amber running lights on the roof of the gas thief truck, otherwise it's a perfect match.

There is also the glaring lack of a tailgate, which is a pretty obvious clue for even the daftest police officer

I'm 6'4" and borrowed a friend's miata for a week while my car was in the shop. Never again, my left leg was absolutely wedged between the wheel and the door panels and the top of my head was above the windscreen.
