    What a truly sad event. My prayers are for all those involved both for their loss and their traumatic experience. This is a time to console and comfort all.

    Wweeeeeee!!

    Yeah, I understand that some do but the Ford dealer should know what it takes on one of their cars.

    Good article and great explanation. The biggest problem are the shops that aren't honest give everyone else a bad name. My sister-in-law was quoted $70 to change a turn signal bulb on her Fusion (this was at a dealer). They claimed they needed to remove the wheel, remove the inner fender and that it was a 1/2 hour job

    Mmm, Cosworth coolness. I only call people dorks if they are snobbish prigs or in jest.

    That's what the BMW dorks want to 'educate' people on. Bimmer is supposed to be the car and Beamer/Beemer the bike. I think Bimmer sounds stupid so I call them Beamers.

    Entertaining list and you included a culture lesson. Well done. It seems the cars with the most nick names are the low cost, long production run and widely distributed cars. That makes sense to me as they are accessible to a greater number of people for a longer period of time.

    I'm gaining more and more respect for Kia and Hyundai every day. When they are the only company building low cost RWD cars (both sports and performance sedans) they get my attention. I'm a stalwart American car buyer but am softening to the Koreans. Especially since GM killed the G8 and Ford offers nothing in the RWD

    Excellent! That was perfect.

    Respectable time, without a doubt, by a car no longer in production and is essentially a show room stock race car. There isn't an equivalent Corvette and certainly not a ZR1 so I say you beat a production street car with an out of production race car. Details on tires used?

    Nicely done, everyone. I completely agree with Bangarang.

    I like South Bob a little more.

    Shoot, one guy can pick up one of those.

    Props to everyday citizens that just became heros! Those people deserve accolades and respect. What an absolutely awesome deed.

    Lol, well done.

    It's a cute little thing and certainly more cost effective than a full sized helio. It makes sense to me.

    I agree with the Continental suggestion. They are pretty cool and I don't even like Fords.

    Great list and great choices.

    Lol, that's a lot of work but very funny.

    Yeah, I remember that one. Very cool and a good suggestion.
