You might consider removing the crossbars. I've read test reports that just the crossbars at highway speeds will cost about 10 to 11% in gas mileage.

Oh Yeah! It is very classy! We are not fond of most colors used on cars, the Oxford White is perfect for us.

As I've stated before, I used to own an off-grid ranch in the So Cal mountain badlands. We had lots of visiting critters, including coyotes, an occasional bear, wolf, bobcat, and a mountain lion. We also had a Kuvasz (large guard dog) named Dusty who would chase off anything that came near...

Happened to me in New Mexico. Filling the BS and watching gas fill total and realized it was too much gas. Turned to find lots of gas on the ground. Hosed off everything and reported spill to attendant, and got a "too bad, so sad" type of response. I miss the days when an attendant filled...

"I used to be a _____ nut back in the ____ day_." Sorry, I couldn't stop myself, had to correct the statement!

So, you wanna go back in history to compare cars? In 1957 I had a "modified" '50 Olds fastback. 350 cubic inches, B&M stick hydro, and fast (but ugly)! And I mean butt ugly! Would it accelerate faster than my BS BL? Oh, he-- yes! Was it cheap on gas? At 25 cents a gallon who cares. But...

Oh My, where to start. I won't bother with tales from the years I lived on an off-grid ranch, in the middle of a Condor refuge in Southern California. You might find ANYTHING in your vehicle! But, now, in a community in the Los Padres National Forest, the big problem is wood rats. Not your...

OK, You be the fork, I wanna be the KNIFE!

That ain't no "fish bowl", it's a genuine "California Bubble Gum Machine"! I used to own one. It was meant to have a rotary engine, but at the last minute the engine contract fell through, so they replaced it with a truck inline 6 banger. Many folks replaced the 6 banger with a small block...

I live in the mountains of So. Cal. Shopping is 50 miles 1-way on I-5. Round trip covered the windshield with bugs, to the point visibility was impaired. Added the Aeroskin II and now bug splats are gone! Last trip only had 2 hits, and they were high on the windshield. Love it!

Actually, I'm not that "Old Fashioned", I prefer straight up with ice (one cube only please)! I use lesser brands with Coke for a mixed drink. :like:

OK, Ya really want to know the only thing I dislike about my BSBL? Background first; 1. I'm not the youngest person on this forum. My 1st car was a '47 Plymouth sedan! 2. My 1st personal computer was a Commodore 64. I built my own XT and 286PC! Back then, computers often quit functioning for...

Really? Fits my "mug" perfectly!

50 years ago Real Men didn't "ASK" for directions.

We used to call it Texas Pin-striping, and you wore it as a badge of honor!:handsinair:

OK, Buy 1 of each, drive 'em for 2 months, keep the one you like best, and sell the other! (you'll prolly make money on the one you sell)

Don't ask!

Eeewwwwww!!!!!!

Back then we called "bump and grind"!
