But then you'd just post how much money Greg is wasting.

Not at all, in fact I encourage all readers to by said Lincoln. Keeping Ford afloat and the workers in Hermosillo, Mexico gainfully employed is a great thing for all "domestic" car fanbois.

I disagree with you BT.   Like Mr Meouw and others  HO is just a regular guy with posts that sometimes cause a small grin.... like that last one.

He does no harm. he is not evil.... unless he makes personal attacks against other posters.

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Thank you, sir. Unfortunately, 20 years in the car business has made me "The man who knew too much."

When it comes to cars, reality bites. I remember my first dealership job, in high school, when I cleaned up the shop after the mechanics left. Having a beer (underage) with the sales manager, I asked, "What is the easiest car to sell?"

He replied, "Sonny, I don't sell cars. I sell dreams. People sign their lives away for these things and I drive whatever is on the lot that has gas in it."

As opposed to keeping all the workers in the Suzuka, Japan factory employed and singing the company song as HO seems to prefer.

How about Alliston Ontario? The biggest selling car in North American is made there. Two plants working two shifts at the moment and another plant under construction. Way to go Canada!

Interesting, but not relevant to the issue at hand.  Sadly for you, the Fit is not assembled in Alliston or anywhere else in North America. It is Suzuka-built. Sorry to burst your bubble (or delusion).

It is hard for GM Faithful these days. If they would only buy one, they might help their cause.

I'm not, in any way, faithful to any brand. That doesn't make you any less tiresome.

I rather like the exterior looks.  Anyone else like?

I finally saw one of these in person the other day. I parked next to it in a lot and have to say I was really impressed with how it looked. It wasn't as big as I thought it would be though it certainly isn't a small car, but it isn't Town Car sized either. It was a really nice-looking vehicle. This one had the interior in two-tone tan and it looked great as well. Very impressive.
