But...but...what is the guy from National Car Rental going to be pointing at now when he says, "Sorry, it's the last car on the lot."

You see, the problem is when you go to Peoria, you have to set your watch back 20 years. So this just about right.
@SumTingWong: I was thinking about my younger AF brat days, too. Dad wasn't a car guy, but the neighborhood was full of MG's, Ghias, Triumphs, and the odd Porsche. All two seat souvenirs of overseas tours.
@Paul Y. can't think of a better, shorter handle: Thirded. I seem to be in the minority that prefers the "notch-back" early Mustangs over the fast-backs.
@formerly Chief Wahoo: I was less shocked about the practice than I was about Jay's proximity to the people he was writing about. I mean, Phelps may be one of the few athletes with long enough hands to get around Jay's neck! And that wingspan! Probably gave Jay nightmares.
@pauljones: You have to remember that the Equus is aimed at the most conservative wealthy segment of the KDM (I can use that, right?). It's the kimchee-scented version of a Lincoln Towncar. Engine displacement has less to do with 0-60 and more to do with "I can afford the tax levy on an engine this big."
@Mr. Poon: Chris Paul may stick to certain types of skin.
No specific memory, but I will heartily endorse slick-track places. Even if the karts are underpowered and the layout resembles the bathroom rug in size and shape, the slickness will deliver a driving experience where you only manage to have all four wheels and the body pointed in the direction of travel for about 10…
@Kelly: I left the '77 Plymouth Volare (vol-ARE whoa-ho) I inhereted from my grandmother unlocked, windows down, keys in the visor in a college town, hoping it'd disappear. Someone took the pennies out of the ashtray, left the car.
I'm OK with this. The NFL has been sorely lacking in Ozzie Guillen-style coaching.
@crazyjoedavola: It's LEGO.
But did the truck have one of those "Jesus is My Co-Pilot" bumperstickers?
@Plecostomus - Now with 20% more Algae!: That movie's awesome.
Has there been an ultimate pizza delivery vehicle QOTD? Seems like there should have been.
I miss Lietch. This far in and no suggestion that Arizona review the tape from their 2005 semifinal game. Preferably with commentary from Deron Williams.
Um...yeah. Student design is right. I see no LATCH straps or top tether or harness adjustment. The base sticks too far out in back for most car seats. The "easy cam" adjuster looks like it requires you to use both hands to turn the cam locks and your third hand to adjust the seat angle. And the wings on the sides will…
Word from my uncle in KC is that the Chiefs actually had a trade lined up but blew the clock management at the end and missed the deadline.
Wow. So in addition to seeing Daewoo-badged Malibus in Korea, I'll be treated to Daewoo-badged Cherokees?
I'm looking to replace my nearly dead (as in: I'm driving around with TWO fire extinguishers, several quarts of oil, and a jug of pre-mixed coolant) Blazer in the next month or so. I'm hoping the trend in low financing and special deals continues.
@FuzzyPlushroom: Obama's a right hand drive Civic. From a distance, you think you know what he is: safe, reliable, has broad appeal. Then you see where that steering wheel is, and you remember that he's not entirely from around here. Maybe a slightly different view of the road is just what you need. And then maybe…
