I still sometimes miss that ol' 81 celica, but alas it was a slushbox so it had to go. Huge mistake getting rid of that car. Should have driven it into oblivion instead of driving it most of the way there (it had 190k on the clock when I parted ways with it).

damn forgot about Jeep. You're right. It's the most valuable part of the company and I totally forgot about it. It's so different than Chrysler or Dodge that it's good to go.

in my mind those S-10 blazers are mid-sized SUVs...even the 2 door ones from like 1988. Small SUVs to me are things like the first gen RAV4.

none taken. my sarcasm did not come across very well in my post.

Chrysler needs to build something that looks modern instead of these mafia staff car monstrosities (Heisenberg's 300 notwithstanding—that thing is plenty cool).

My head says CP, but the fact it is only 2k makes me ignore all those red flags. NP for the illogical win.

sure because you can pour this goop in the radiator and it'll fix the head gasket. I did that one time on a early 80's toyota 22R engine I had with a blown head gasket. Car ran for another 25,000 miles trouble free. Not saying the more complex northstar engine could handle a bottle of goop in the radiator that you buy…

which is why reputable boxes do not let noobs regardless of how "fit" they appear to do the full workouts as prescribed for the first month. They also limit the number of workouts per week until the athlete has developed a base. Still, rhabdo does occur among crossfitters at higher rates than other exercise programs.

Three of my friends went to see the stage show. They all said it was awesome.

I'd love to see the Heisenberg edition of that New Yorker. How much cooler would Walt be riding in vintage iron instead of that new 300?

One day I'll own a 300D wagon and a tweed jacket with professor pads.

What no 80 zones along I-70? Kudos on raising it on I-15, I-80, & I-84, but I-70 needs the bump up too. Better yet, bump it to 90 from the CO border all the way to the terminus at I-15 (with a some exceptions—where there's big elevation changes or narrow canyons to drive through come to mind).

I was leaning NP because I love wagons and Audis are beautiful cars. However I don't trust Audi mechanicals once the miles pile up, and this one is about to cross into high miles territory. I'll give it another 10k miles before the heart aches begin. Then I saw that it had been dropped, and that sealed its CP fate for…

dollars to donuts, next 5 iteration will have skyactiv. I've heard nothing and am only guessing, but my bones tell me this will come.

Repeat after me, "YOU NEVER GET OUT OF IT WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT." That is all.

Yes! If they can't (or won't) build something akin to the W123, the 124 is a good fall back position (I have an irrational love of the W123).

Don't see myself DD this...get a load of those MPG figures. CP

here's hoping your race goes something like this (skip to 33 seconds in):
