I'd like to think I will die while doing practice laps in a Porsche while wearing a Beatles wig. In reality, I'll probably drop over in a Home Depot parking lot of a heart attack while trying to load a bar-b-q grill into the Suburban. My family's reaction will be, "shit, now we'll have to pay to have it delivered!"

I wish California would go back to the simple "black plate".

Sam Smith is still on the committee and he demanded that it be an American car. He then nominated the Chrysler 300. We all stared at him. Wes Siler wants swag. Murilee stuck his head in and suggested it should be something he could easily get parts for and work on. Ray spent most of the meeting checking his…

Pretty much the same as the others: box seats, press cars, junkets to exotic locations and lots of hot women. I'm on the selection committee and I know I can be bought.

3rd Gear. I like the front of the new Flex. Perhaps Ford is attempting to create a stealth, upper-crust make-within-a-make by calling a attention to the model rather than the make.

Martin Mull once described the Cable Ace Award as being halfway between an Emmy and a hood ornament. I suspect "Automobile of the Year" is just as coveted. Have we decided who gets the Werty this year?

When did we as a people stop listening? Not just hearing the words, but listening. That woman is lonely. She's frustrated. In her own way, she was trying to tell the man what she REALLY wanted.

Sorry, I thought you asked about a gadget car.

The winters are entirely too long in Vermont.

It's still fun to look at an original, unrestored old car and see some of the option combinations people would put together. You really get a feeling for the original buyer's personality.

Funny, that's exactly the way my father would have said it.

3rd Gear. Back in '72 Cadillac had a very similar color that they called Ice Blue Firemist (doesn't show well in the picture) that they encouraged combining with a black vinyl roof and a deep red leather interior. Believe it or not, the result was stunning. Too bad you can't get interiors in colors now other than…

That looks like controls to a trailer brake.

Close, but I gave it a NP. Low mileage, in decent shape and rather rare. The latter is subjective because something is only rare if more people want the product than there is product available. I'm not sure how many people want McLaren Mustangs. Has anyone done a poll? I'm sure people have done "Poles" because…

Ray, they're simply allowing potential buyers more time to round up a co-signer.

They think the heat from the generator killed it.

Not bad.

One never knows when a homosexual is about.

This reminds me of the miracle pine tree that magically grew in the desert next to a road in Colorado that Mike Levine thinks is "beautiful". (I'm not making this up, you can search it on Jalopnik) There is nothing but sand, which is probably why Levine fell in love with the place as his little caravan motored…

You replied to, and insulted, the wrong person. Sounds like the horn on the short bus, hurry or you'll be late for school.
