    The "debates" in this place are actually worse than the "debates" in the comment section of my local newspaper. Less informed, more full of invective, and completely devoid of useful insight. ...

    I would dump the 97 Dodge Dakota and the 96 GMC Yukon. Yes, the engines and trannies may have been replaced, but that just means everything else on those vehicles has extremely high miles.

    Does it actually surprise you to learn that there are many layers of social injustice, not just one? When we got rid of "colored" bathrooms, were you surprised that we next had to address rules...

    The Tillamook Huckleberry is great, even if the ice cream itself is only good, the huckleberry flavor is over the top.

    XXXer, I don't think there are any new cars for $10k. Cheap new cars start around $15k.

    And AWD is definitely a want, not a need. When I was 21, AWD barely existed, and 4WD was expensive. These...

    The Honda was totally a "dad" car. It was a good choice for a family truckster. Or, at least, it would have been if I'd kept better rubber on it. Leson learned. But now the kids are getting...

    Why? I've ridden in one of those, years ago, and it seemed pretty decent. Engines any good? Will suspension and steering hold up over the long haul?
