How long does it take to...

These days the only times I really feel comfortable talking about my time in the military is when I’m talking to other vets. I don’t have to explain anything, because they get it. 

Waving the flag while you’re trying to sell me something or spout some crackpot conspiracy theory at me has about as much effect as people robotically parroting “thank you for your service” as a knee jerk reaction to learning I was in the military. 

Eighth Air Force started killing fascists in France in the Fall of 1942. Just could NOT wait.

It’s 2030. The redesigned Ford Excursion is back, but this time it is all aluminum with 2.7L TT hybrid drivetrain. EPA rating is 42city/54highway.

That’s why I picked up a C-max Energi. Same drivetrain, hatchback versatility. Wish they never got rid of the C-max. I adored that car.

some will be cheapasses that find the Maverick good enough.

Now, a first-gen Insight is a dream car for me, so if anyone happens to know of a green one that isn’t beat to hell...

Do you think we might have missed a step in there someplace?

I don’t understand how this works

Maybe we just need to get rid of that pesky ‘work’ thing, and fish and ski instead.

Also, a Chevy Equinox has the same footprint as my Cruze

So what if I have a front passenger? What if I don’t want to strap a mattress to a roof to drive on the highway in the rain?
