You misspelled Ferrari.
Definitely a Mod, now policing the spelling near you.

They left us out of the map. Either they're ignoring the fact that the smoke has reached us, too... or we simply don't exist
If they put you on the map you might think of suing them for the smoke.

Self driving cars. The sooner, the better.
Then we will all feel like celebrities, being dropped off at our destination and then the car will go off to park itself. No longer will we need to find a place to park and then get back to our destination in time for the event to which we are going.

I bought my Crossfire because of its looks - I don't like bland

Ever sit in a Lamborghini?

Even at 5'10" it is a tight squeeze.

And the seats are not adjustable.
A few times and I managed to squeeze my 6'2" in and go fast.

I knew that.

Automatic transmissions are dumbing down operating motor vehicles.
At least it prevents youngsters stealing manual cars.

Thanks for that Dave!
The Thread has gone off the rails about automobiles again, or is it still?

In other news, I had a great breakfast with coffee, eggs, hash browns, toast, and BACON.
In still other news I just ordered a new Weber Performer grill. I paid $150 for my used one in 2009,
and have no doubt I can get that back out of it today. It's another blue one, but a different lighter shade.
Won't arrive for about a month from Crate and Barrel, The color is only sold by them.
Weber Slate Blue Performer Deluxe Charcoal Grill + Reviews | Crate and Barrel
Did they use a Pentax to look up your, um, nevermind.

I love it, every time someone mentions a car they think is ugly, someone else says they had one because it looked great.

A Rant

Let me preface this with "I love Cheetos!"
I went shopping a few days ago and in, what we euphemistically call a "supermarket", was a large display of Cheetos macaroni and cheese. I bought a box as I like mac and cheese and thought that this should really be something special. We had it tonight with smoked pork chops. (no, they weren't boiled first.)
The Cheetos mac and cheese had the flavor of a glass of water. The macaroni had EXACTLY the same flavor after the sauce was applied as it had before.
