Riding tall and proud in American iron

There are many educated republicans, however you seem to be an ignorant dumb ass.

That's my plan, burn it all up and then the powers that be will sell us the alternative.

Buying big always just shows that you are lacking in size in some other department.

I me me mine! Isn't that what made the US great?

Your country? It's OUR country.

In 2005:

GM is selling 25,000 hybrid electrics designed by GM and Delphi engineers.

It will be run through the starter from what I read?

I hope, but GM has a long history of BSing.

GM delays electric car intro By Bob Irvin Autoweek November 10, 1980 page 4

Detroit.--General Motors has delayed by a year its electric-car timetable. The car now is planned for a 1985 introduction, according to GM President Pete Estes.

But Estes had been talking earlier in the year about possibly introducing the car in 1984, if all went well.

Apparently, though, there are still too many unanswered questions to plan for a 1984 introduction. Estes points out that 1985 was the original date anyway.

GM has developed a zinc-nickel-oxide battery for the car, but isn't yet sure of the best way to transmit the power to the wheels.

Estes said GM's Delco-Remy Division in Anderson, Ind., "is making real progress with the motor in terms of cost efficiency. And the battery project for the car is going well.

"It's just a matter of putting it all together. There is still a question of whether we should have a transmission on the car or do it all electrically.

"The bottom line is the price," he added. "We would like to build and price this as a commuter car. But if we find we can't we will have to make it in lower volume and do the car differently."

In other words, raise the price and sell it as a specialty car. In any case, GM would like to sell 100,000 a year in 1985.

Estes said GM should have a prototype running next month, and by the end of the year or early next year, we'll know where we are going and where it fits into the market place."

You can't be serious. But then, most republicans I find in the blue-collar world are about as dumb as a box of rooks. They just don't understand bait nor leading questions. I sincerely hope the white collar repubs can think, but from what I've seen the last couple of years, I doubt that.

Now yer soundling like a klassical liberal. Preach it, brother!

You educated nut-wit. It's "Globalization"

No kidding here. When the country was first created there were the wiggs etc. The republicans were the closest you could get to a dem. The true dem/liberal/moron party wasn't around till we let women vote...

au-contraire. Both parties have been around since the get-go. Don't matter what they call themselves. Started with the Federalists and Anti-Federalist, and both have evolved.

Notice I didn't put a party label on myself? That's because a party that shares my viewpoints doesn't exist. I call myself a classical liberal because that is the train of philosophical thought that best describes my viewpoint. It's called freedom, man. And it no longer exists.

Hey that isn't mine but it looks close and you can just feel the big power! It eats eco-weenies for breakfast Sierra clubbers for lunch and nerdy biologist for dinner! It even hauls stuff sometimes. When I ride in big iron like this I am like the guy in ZZ Top Bad and Nationwide.

No, you are just an idiot.

And a troll to boot.

Here you go. Some real 4x4's.

Hey that's cool all we need are bigger tanks to compesate for the mpg, and look how clean the sky is behind those mean machines so how can they pollute more?!

I got mine, you got yours, I got mine so up yours! :)
