    Wow. You must be watching a different show. Seemed to me that Matt took every opportunity he had to load up on Chris. 

    These were all the rage when they first came out. Hard to get and dealers added stuff to bump the price. Too bad Isuzu couldn’t keep things going.

    We’ve all got a “due date”. Unfortunately, in my case, I have two 94 year old parents still going strong, so I figure I’m gonna be around for a while. I say unfortunately, because I have no desire (nor reason) to live to that age.

    This final Episode was a cobbled together bunch of crap and possibly the worst episode of Top Gear, ever. Between this segment and Rory’s snippet on self braking cars, it was obvious that they were just killing time to get to the end of the hour.

    Glad someone came up with an article about Top Gear, because I have a few words to say about it.

    Came in a bit late on this one, and voted opposite to what most people voted. After some negotiation, I would have this car in a minute if I had the money. The 300 is a nice ride, and this is exactly the upgrade it needs. 

    When I moved to Florida, a friend of mine GAVE me one of these with over 200,000 miles on it. The only problem was it needed valve guide seals. When we took it off the truck, it smoked out the entire warehouse.

    This is being sold by a dealer. No way does it go out the door for that price, probably closer to $4200.

    You know, the Skrulls have been around for God knows how many years. Sometime in the first ten or so issues of The Fantastic Four. That’s a LONG time ago. Anything out there who looks like them are, probably, copies.

    It’s Darwinism in action. 

    This kind of situation seems to be never ending, and people just never seem to learn.

    Had one of these back in the day. Great car!!!! Did everything that the other AWD trucks did, but was still comfortable to drive around town and long distance.

    I remember one time seeing a Jeep Cherokee balanced almost perfectly on a concrete road divider. It was snowing, and I guess the guy was depending on his 4WD to keep him safe. I wish I had been there to see how he had managed this particular stunt.

    I ave always thought that the real problem with this model is that it looks more like an update of the first generation Corvettes than TBirds. The first gen TBird was kind of boxy, not smooth like this car. It just doesn’t look like any TBird I have ever seen. 

    I used to see a lot of this type of truck out on the road pulling “hot shot” trailers. I once asked a driver about fuel mileage. I was surprised to learn that his truck got worse fuel mileage when towing than my Freightliner.

    First, let me say that this is gonna break my (94 year old) Dad’s heart. He has been leasing LaCrosses forever, or so it seems, and will be due for a new one in a year or so.

    I recently looked at a sister car to this one, a Firebird Trans Am, basically kitted out just like this one, except it was a drop top and had considerably more miles. The asking price was $5000.

    Wait. 2007 Grand Cherokee uncomfortable? Did they change them for that year? I had a 2005 Grand Cherokee and it was the most comfortable long cruise car I have ever driven, and I have driven a LOT of cars. 

    It’s funny, but every refridgerator I have owned in the past 40 or so years have had these things they call “wheels” on the bottom. You just kind of grab the unit and pull it out. Easy peasy.

    Last Spring I came upon a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hemi. The car was gorgeous - looked like brand new, inside, outside, under the hood and underneath. The price was $3500. Why? because it had 250,000 miles on the clock.
