  1. There is nothing you can do about this so just save your breath...what are you going to do, not buy gasoline..? It does suck that the stuff is almost $4 a gallon for 93 where I am at..
  2. Justin, Where did you see these guys? I live right outside of Bingo-town..
  3. you know Chilled Man is killing his dongle to this...
  4. I think its more of an image issue for kids then anything else..
  5. QUOTE (Plan_B @ Jul 7 2008, 01:46 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Here's another "REPOST" NWS for F-bomb! NWS NWS NWS NWS *** * * * This never gets old....
  6. This stuff is incredible, I REALLY want to try the Volvo specific wax..The other blue wax that you can get anywhere now and the leather cleaner and conditioner has been good to me so far..
  7. Yea, but the loss they posted makes in interesting..
  8. I guess I was looking at it percentage wise, think of it as a pie..What slice owns Aston martins? Say the population that owned them, was only concentrated to the larger cities..then would the smaller suburban shops have to get their guys trained (costs $) and buy machines ($$) and parts ($$)..you see what I'm saying...the bad outweighs the good..
  9. Aston Martin's demand isn't high enough to be valuable to any company, but when they do sell a car they make out like bandits..Also where would you get the damn thing serviced? On top of that any company that would buy them would have to have their employees trained in the maintaince and service of the vehicles(costing them more money) plus have an inventory of parts and special machines (again MORE money).. .If you ask me they need to just downsize and build everything on demand, have no cars "on the lot" so to speak if they aren't doing this already.. I just caught this on Wiki: In light of mounting financial pressure, and after internal review of costs and value, Ford decided to look at selling parts of its Premium Automotive Group. After suggestions of selling Jaguar Cars, Land Rover or Volvo Cars, Ford appointed UBS AG to sell Aston Martin by auction. At the end of August 2006, Ford announced that it would be willing to sell all or part of Aston Martin. Bill Ford said: "As part of our on going strategic review, we have determined that Aston Martin may be an attractive opportunity to raise capital and generate value".[4]Auto Express reported that Ford hopes to achieve £600m from the sale. The Financial Times reported on 1 September 2006 that Ford wanted $2 billion. They need to ditch the other brands they own that aren't in high demand as well, like Jag and Land Rover...might bail Ford out.. But just as a recap, I think they need to be sold..
  10. Yea, but people are so dumb when it comes to this. Toyota's are mostly made here, and GM's garbage parts come from Mexico, Taiwan etc...if they only knew..
