Is anyone else wondering when FCA is just going to implode? Abandoning the mid-size car market seemed like the first indicator. Things just seem... unsteady over there.

This only happens when the top management create a culture that fosters desperation and greed. This stuff doesn’t just “happen” or get this big by itself. Marchionne and his team made sales numbers The Thing and obviously put in place a bonus structure and enough stress/pressure to essentially force this.
Neutral: What Penalty Should FCA Face For Greasing Sales Numbers?
The new Fusion sport is putting out a reported 325/350 with an AWD system (don’t know the specifics on the AWD). That blows away the Passat, Camry, and Accord, and actually outpowers the 340i. That doesn’t sound very boring to me.
OK, apologies ahead of time for the typo. I’m Jaloping as fast as I can before the boss does his computer screen check walk arounds in the office ... lol
It used to be, 6 Seasons ago. Nowadays it’s basically either Sam or Dean lying to one another about something that could bring about the end of the world solely because they don’t wanna hurt the other’s feelings while they deal with Demons.
Exactly. When they first came out people were crazy about them. They barely sat on lots and everyone thought they were so damn cool.
I truly believe you are right when you say religion is a drug. I grew up the son of a preacher. And as a youngster, I felt what my dad and millions of others would call the holy spirit within me. Later on in life I tried drugs. Guess what, I felt that holy spirit again. Only this time, I didn’t need a great sermon and…
I have a container for tap water in the fridge so it is colder when I want it. Surely that isn’t beyond anyone.
Statement: This “Mr. Bones” is still just an inferior attempt to replicate the perfect killing machine (me). Who decorates themselves with the remains of meatbags? Vulgar.
You know, I said to my wife, shortly after Sam was introduced, “That’s GRR Martin right there.” A fat, clumsy, but intelligent boy with more interest in books than fighting. He has been George’s stand-in within the story all along.
That has my vote.
I’m trying to imagine the Princess Bride-esque ending, maybe Samwell reading to little Sam, but that would be pretty messed up considering all the rape, murder and torture.
Gyroscopes, you say?
George Martin has an interest in solar systems with complex dynamic characteristics. For example, his novel “Dying of the Light” is set on a world that is moving out of the warm part of the habitable zone around a star, and entering a period of darkness and cold.
I was thinking more like Dilio from 300, though I’m not sure Sam has the physique or would want to give up an eye...
“My mother’s experiences with Cadillac has made me not ever want to buy one or any other GM product and she is on her second Volvo now.”
I hate stance. I refuse to “accept all types of modifications,” or “respect the build.” There are some things that are just plain stupid. I realize I will be flamed to hell for saying this, but I don’t care.
The only stance-related happiness I can derive is that (as a BRZ owner) every time a stanced Toyobaru is posted…
Justin Bieber owns several Ferraris and Lamborghinis but I wouldn’t call him a gear head either
Hence, the “allegedly” in front of my statements. As for his car guy credentials, he’s a rich radio host who doesn’t know what else to do with his money. All of his Ferraris have been repainted white, and interiors reupholstered in powder blue.
He has admitted in interviews to exposing himself at work. That’s already creepy enough.
