I saw a prototype Lacrosse a little over a year ago and really liked the looks inside and out. However, the engine options didn't really impress me. source

It takes roughly the same amount of aluminum to make a beer can today that it did in 1970, because twelve ounces of beer is still twelve ounces of beer. It takes roughly the same amount of plastic to make a picnic fork today as it did forty years ago, because our mouths and hands are still roughly the same size. It actually takes more paint to paint a house today, because houses have gotten larger on average. It takes one-billionth the amount of silicon today to make an eight-bit microprocessor as it did in 1970. In 1970, raw materials were actually a significant part of computer prices. source

Why the Hell should the Democratic Party reward the two states that consistently make a goddamn mockery of the political process? Michigan broke the goddamn rules willingly in the last two primaries, and Florida couldn't hold an honest election if Christ Himself was counting the ballots. source

Coming from owning a GTI in my past I will always love that car. Knowing one day that we would start a family I had to think about the "big picture" and not just me and what I wanted. I could careless what other people think and that I dont get looks when I drive past people or other cars, nor should you brother. Now that my daughter is 22 months old I wouldnt trade my Jetta for a GTI. The wolfsburg is plenty fast but the main feature I went for was that it is a very safe car plus it had a big trunk and four doors. Now that I have precious cargo thats all that matters to me. source
