A cab driver in Dallas figured this out using her own internal computer - namely her brain - She showed me how driving exactly 30MPH down one of the major E/W cross streets enabled the cab to reach every traffic light during the GREEN cycle. No brakes, no jump rabbit acceleration, just smooth sailing all the way.…

The museum should create a display with these Corvette's exactly as they were pulled from the hole. It makes an interesting story and would most definitely be a one-of-a-kind museum feature - gotta look for the positive in all situations.

Bless your heart! I am sure that many people fall into the "no friends of mine" list for you. I hope that you find whatever it is that you need to feel peace and contentment.

Very good point, let's see somebody do this in a loaded Range Rover Autobiography LWB. I'll volunteer....I'll need some new gloves and maybe a hat.

I'll take this Versailles and the difference in price in gold bars in the trunk and drag-ass on home thanks!

What ever happened to his kid? (I'm almost afraid to ask.)

Don't forget using floor mats, trunk mats, window shades etc. as make-shift blankets if you don't have the real thing and look under the seat in the glove compartment, and in the console for mints, candy and stale french-fries....

That is a circa 1987 Cadillac Brougham (the Caddy formally known as Fleetwood) which came from the factory with an Olds 307. But any number of engines will bolt right up in that body. "Room for Six and Power to Pass"

My all-time favorite Xmas song and why the story was never made into a Lifetime TV Movie starring Valerie Bertinelli and Andrew McCarthy I'll never know.

WTF? Wingtip mules are all the rage in China?

The worst winter car is a 1976 Cadillac Sedan Deville, specifically with an empty trunk and a quarter tank of gas. First - it takes the huge 500 Cu.in. engine about an hour to warm up to the point where it produced enough heat to trickle into the cavernous interior. Then once the heat comes on the acres of glass fog…

That made coffee come out my nose...well done!

So what happened? The original matching red hood got dented when a bicycle hung from the garage ceiling fell on it and the owner went down to the PiCk-U-ParT and snagged a hood off a black SLS and hasn't had time to paint it yet?

They should be fired and then accused of smuggling office supplies out of the police station by secreting them in their #2 hole - AND then they can be probed....

"There's one born every minute..."

Not wood, painted skull crushing metal.

Meh. I thought it was going to be a more radical departure from the retro-style that's been so prominent in the last few iterations. It's attractive and clean but so is the VW Passat.

As my dear friend Joel puts it, " That's just a Ford in drag." It's good drag, but drag none-the-less. Lincoln has often been guilty of dressing up Fords to look extra nice and poof! a Lincoln, or Mercury. Sure all car makes share platforms and "guts" between makes and models but Ford never has hidden the Ford roots…

I'd rather be given a weasel enema than drive that road. Impossibly dense traffic. Semi trucks. Unlicensed and uninsured drivers. College kids. Caravans of Impalas in-tow on the way to Mexico. Worn out road surfaces. Cross winds. Debris. Hell.

It turns out that the J.D. Power Brand Survey shows car buyers don't care where they bought their last car anymore, they just want the best new car. The opposite of this is true for trucks.
