While this policy has not been tested yet, Lindsay and I have agreed that we are pretty much just going to both hoard cars as space allows. We are more or less aware of each others' crapheap wish lists (as an aside, I am allowing for a transmission shed for the 3000GT she aspires to; I just assume trannies are a wear item in Mitsubishis, if her former Eclipse was any indication).

I can't for the life of me remember if it was this or the B class that was sold in Canada. They're not a common sight in the US, I've seen tiny MBs in the Buffalo area (with Ontario plates, of course) from time to time.

I'm glad I wasn't the only person thinking exactly this. It's like a shrinky dink version of the Rodius.

Rasputin is my favorite of Northern California's regional record store chains (followed by Amoeba and Dimple). That place makes my checking account scream for mercy.

That's even weirder than seeing any Hummer product towing anything, actually.

My mom used to have one of these.

...and my dad's on his second equivalently-equipped Colorado. While it was absurd for them both to have trucks at the same time (my mom now has an Impala, and loves it), they make sense for what most people actually use trucks for: commuting and the odd Home Depot run.

...but a Subaru Baja would have made yet more sense in that application, really.

Minitrucks are horrendous.

...but lowriders in general are a good thing.

I have a lowrider fetish, admittedly. Whitewalls stretched over wires get me particularly excited.

I, personally, roll big on 15"s.

...but yeah, 16.5"s are excellent for certain applications.
