Both parties made the bet, but ultimately she was the one who bet biggest. Why? Because if she bet wrong, she lost her home (which she did). If the bank bet wrong and she didn't pay, they got a house they could re-sell. If she did keep up the payments, they get the loan plus interest and make their money. So to me…

I think there's plenty of blame for the borrowers.

It's a good time to be an owner/op. I'd be very surprised if company drivers are seeing any extra pay; seems like drivers have been at the same pay for 20 years. When I got injured I was making 42 cents a mile, which is about maxed out for a company driver.

CP, even if it's only because of the vinyl roof.

When I was growing up, there was a 2000GT that we drove past almost daily. For awhile it sat in the driveway, then it was moved into the carport where it sat untouched for years. Then one day, it was gone. At first I thought it might be at a shop or maybe being restored because who in their right mind would let that…

can't edit but meant 440 not 400. Small typo but typos drive me crazy.

I actually never got into weed but made up for it by getting deep into alcohol. Sobered up when I found out I had a kid on the way. She'll be 5 Wednesday, so that makes 5 years and 9 months of sobriety.

Oh now I get it! This is the first time I've ever thought of it like that. I meant TheMyth has a Swinger with a 400 but your way makes sense too, so now it's got a double meaning lol.

To clarify a little, I'd watched something on TV about different religions and such denying mental illnesses exist, that's how I came up with "the myth has become my reality". I thought I was oh so clever writing it yet quite a few friends didn't get it lol.

I've owned one VW, a Corrado G60. I'm blanking on the year right now but it was the last year for the G60 in it. That was a fun car until the motor blew up!

I don't know if you can call what I do musicianship. I play guitar and write songs and lyrics but I'm really a drummer who can't drum anymore (at first because I couldn't afford a new kit but now because I have the back of a 90 year old) who beats the shit out of a guitar to try to make noise. It's all stuff I just do…

My dad used to say it "broffum" but I think that was mainly to annoy me. He used to do that a lot, mispronounce words to irritate the shit out of me.

I've always loved that clip but this is the first time I've seen it un-edited and un-censored and holy shit it's even better than I thought.

I know I'm a day late to this conversation, as usual.

I come from a family with a lot of Mopar fans yet I don't remember any of us having ever owned a 426 Wedge. I've got a 440, my cousin has one of the bored Hemi crate motors -I think it's a 528- and there's been plenty of 318/340/360/383/440s, but no 426 Wedges. I need to fix that!

That is really cool. You don't see many of those any more. I remember David E. Davis from Automobile magazine had one of the 3rd Gen Caravans in Viper blue with silver stripes and nice wheels for awhile. Even as a 14 year old I thought it was bad ass.

Came here (a day late) just to say this. Most non-Mopar folks hear 426 and assume it's a Hemi. The 426 Wedge was no slouch by any means and would be bitchin in a wagon.

You slipped a Ford in there. I've got the Mercury version, the Monterey. I've never been a Ford guy but that van has been excellent for me. Almost 2 years and 50k miles with only a headlight switch needing to be replaced. Not bad for $3500. If Ford made an actual minivan still I'd be buying one this year based on my…

Unless it's changed, AM General. As far as I know GM only bought rights to the civilian version from them.
