    Fuck that. Ford Tempo GL, $600, insurance is as cheap as you can get, and it will go on forever. Anyone who lost their job and is driving a brand spankin' new Saturn Aura has NO sympathy from me. Not that they care, when they are driving a $24,000 new car.


    America sucks.

    @Ford Tempo Fanatic: Plus, driving a Ford Tempo to interviews will make potential employers think you really need the job. Driving a new Saturn will just make them think you're stupid.

    @GreenN_Gold: Heart click for you.


    @FromaBuick6: Do I sense a hint of sarcasm? When you arrive to your destination (namely your place of work) in the stately, chrome-laden vintage 1989 Ford Tempo or the elegant yet sporting 1992 Mercury Topaz Luxury Touring Sedan (or LTS, for short), you don't just arrive. You let the entire area know that you have graced them with your prestigious presence.


    Simply by owning the rolling artwork, sculpted by artiste Jack Telnack, almost guarantees you all your heart's desires. Whether it be the women, the job, or fame and fortune.

    @FLB:


    I'm not sure what qualifies as a "man's car" anymore. I love small fast sportscars, but my wife is under the impression cars like the miata are female cars. So apparently muscle cars are "gay cars"...so that leaves...pickups and suvs? YAWWWWWWN. No thanks. I'll be female and gay I suppose.

    If I had the time, I'd edit together the scenes from "Kids" where the disabled panhandler is stumping along singing "I have no legs, I have no legs" with the one from "Trading Places" where the cops lift Eddie Murphy up, revealing his legs. "It's a miracle! Praise Jesus!"

    @SirNotAppearing: They should be settling for profits, but instead they are still obsessed with market share. So, no, GM would not settle for fifth. Even if it meant actually making money.
