Since these cars are only going to be sold in California during the first year, that narrows it down somewhat. I'm sure Young Tom can give you a hint...

I know, I know....he wears a cap fashioned after those worn by General Romel's Afrika Corps, plus he occasionally wears rubber gloves while performing proctology on his SVX.

Re: QUIZ: What Reading member and car collector...

The entirely verbally NWS Winnebago Salesman on YouTube (I'm not posting the link!) will finalize it.

Evidently, there's a part of one that will help you keep from falling down. The circle is complete.

Obviously, I am not a part of this inside joke...

But obviously this joke has secret hyper jets.

Quote:
Sandurz: We're closing in on them, sir. In less than minute, Lone Star will be ours.
Helmet: (mask down) Good. Prepare to attack.
Sandurz: Prepare to attack.
Helmet: On the count of three. One, two...
(Eagle 5 takes off into hyperactive.)
Helmet: Wait. (lifts mask up) What happened? Where are they?
Sandurz: I don't know, sir. They must have Hyper-jets on that thing.
Helmet: And what have we got on this thing a quezenart?
Sandurz: No, sir.
Helmet: Well, find them catch them.
Sandurz: Yes, sir. (over intercom) Prepare ship for light speed.
Helmet: No, no, no, light speed is too slow.
Sandurz: Light speed, too slow?
Helmet: Yes, we're gonna have to go right to ludicrous speed.
(Everyone gasps.)
Sandurz: (gasp) Ludicrous speed? Sir, we've never gone that fast before. I don't know if this ship can take it.
Helmet: What's the matter, Colonel Sandurz, chicken?
Quote:
(Lone Star and Barf watch as Spaceball 1 passes them and leaves behind a plaid trail.)
Barf: What the hell was that?
Lone Star: Spaceball 1.
Barf: They've gone to plaid.

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

Re: QUIZ: What Reading member and car collector...

I dunno, that things kinda lookin, even if it does get 300 MPG. Although I'm sure the free-thinking, Birkenstock-wearing, Granola-eating hippies around here will be trading in their Priuses and GEMs as soon as they are available here...
