That’s why I went with the Clubman in ‘09; three inches of extra space for the reverse facing car seat can make all of the difference.

The wife refuses to drive on highways so I get to pick which car to take. She won’t let the kids in my ‘88 245, I hate driving her Accord CVT, and the ‘00 M roadster can’t fit the dog.

I have since upgraded to a Focus ST. The wife refuses to drive on highways so I get to pick which car to take. She won’t let the kids in my ‘88 245, I hate driving her Accord CVT, and the ‘00 M roadster can’t fit he dog.

The umbrella stroller attached to the roof rack along with the bikes. Everything else inside the car.

Yeah, I traded the Clubman in for a Focus ST (actually smaller than the new Clubman). The kids are old enough now that dont bring anything along with them except books and their lovies. The wife can now pack for 2 weeks in Europe in a carry-on roller.

Unknown Brewery in Charlotte has and ‘86 El Camino.

The first years of Gen X are in their mid-50s. This car is made for them (us). Most guys in their 70s aren’t looking to buy new anything at this point.

Underrated Clash comment.

I did one year of college at ECU in 1995-1996. It was the longest year of my life.

How long before “Lightning Volt Limited” starts calling themselves LVL (pronounced level)? 

I own a Focus ST and an Outback. I would never buy the other brand’s versions of each car.
