My youngest is still driving my old 300m. It was a dandy.

MIL is pissed at FIL because he traded in his Benz for a 300C.

The 300 was sweet. Rode like a luxury car, but peppy. According to him, close to 300 HP, . Huge nav system, Sirius, back-up camera, leather, separate temp controls, remote start, heated seats...just a nice car.

I had never considered one. I would now, though, if I were in the market.

The AP is on a mission, now.

Is that Richard Scrushy? He's been in the news recently. Wasn't he your old boss?

No.

No, it's not Dick Scrushy or no, he's not your former boss...

That was the only thing Bush ever did right, saving them and GM.

I guess it depends on your perspective...

heh. That headline just as easily could have read "GM and Treasury Celebrate Automaker Rejoining S&P500, Taxpayer Debt Likely to Be Paid in Full (with Interest)." But maybe saving two of the American Big Three is not really that big of deal.

Suppose the only thing left for dubya to point to is killing Bin Laden.

This is how Toe acts when he's losing another losing battle for the Pubs.

We bought a 2013 Chrysler 300 (base model.)

I love it.

I call bullshit. Buying a Base Model is like buying an XBox at Wal*Mart

WHy would you give him that opening to write a dissertation on the virtues of base model purchase?

I always get lost in the voluminous footnotes and bibliographies in IB's posts.

no dissertation

we are just cheap

So you're Jewish?

Why would you spend that kind of money on a new car and get a base model? If you're going to waste money on a new car, why not get a slightly lower end model but get it loaded? Except, of course, for the fact that you're just outright lying your ass off. Again...

My car is top of the line, but I bought it used.

What are Pintos going for nowadays?

Because the base model 300 had everything we needed.
