west-coaster commented on Ford CEO To Drive To Washington, D.C. For Not-A-Bailout Hearings

"He should figure out what Lee Iacocca's last FoMoCo company car was before getting axed in 1978 (I'm thinking some kind of hideous Linoln product, or perhaps an LTD Landau Brougham), find one on eBay and drive THAT. Then, he could plead to congress, "Look...this is the junk we made in the '70s when we signed all those cushy union deals."

"I'd take the T-Bird, 'cause all the chicks at the local nightlub in 1966 would totally dig it! (And after parking it right out front, I'd saunter into the place in my white dinner jacket, skinny bow tie, freshly Brylcreem'd hair, and a king-size cigarette in my mouth."

"@mytdawg: I was watching it a couple of months ago, and in the scene where Bond is riding in the cab and the driver is hit but the dart, EVERY car on the highway was some sort of '74 full-size Chevy. It's kind of a lenghty scene, as 007 struggles to get control of the cab (a '74 Bel Air), and they swerve past countless Impalas, Caprices and Kingswood wagons. Later in the film, they're down in Louisiana, and EVERY police car was an Impala, some with whitewall tires, which cop cars NEVER had."
