today’s excited talk about electric vehicles is fixated on range, charging, tax incentives, local content requirements, and government regulations.
……… Jaguar, in its quest to walk away from Internal Combustion rides, will be no different than all the other lemmings at the bottom of the cliff.

I was out driving around today while the weather was still good. I spotted a Subaru BRZ at a dealership. These are as hard to find as a Crossfire in my area.
I parked next to it just to get a size comparison. The Crossfire is a bit taller and wider, but they are close in length.
I always liked the way the BRZ looks. Like the Crossfire, the BRZ was a joint venture. The Toyota GR 86 and the Subaru BRZ are pretty much the same car with minor body and interior changes.
The one pictured here has a manual transmission, which is getting harder to find these days. I drove one a couple of years ago and it was a fun car. I still prefer my Crossfire roadster over a coupe.

And I thought I was the only one to drive to closed car lots and compare the Crossfire to cars on the lot!
Have done it with Miatas, Nissan Z, and Corvettes.
One observation. Those mid engine Corvettes are very low.
Like to look but still love my Crossfire.

This is what the chart says. The black dots were burned in like from a soldering pen.

I have read that in cars there are hidden key codes printed inside door panels and other parts sI looked at my glove box door because it has a lock and I found the above chart. There is a key fob printed next to the chart circled in red. I believe someone has the information whether it is Chrysler or locksmiths that can read this chart and it is enough of a key code that a key can be made with little effort by someone who knows how to decipher it. IDK......

I test drove a Mazda MX5 RF (that's the model wear the roof folds away and it's like a Targa top on a Porsche) and I thought it was great. Being retired, I like to test drive different cars once in a while.
I think I'll annoy the people at Mercedes after Thanksgiving, and take a convertible for a spin. LOL
I still love my Crossfire as well.

Happy Thanksgiving
I am no cook but the directions did say to let the bird chill in the sink for a few hours.

Sorry... but I need to vent!!!!

I experienced the WORST customer service today at a store in town.
I don't want to mention the name of the store because I'm not sure how I'm going to proceed.
Yesterday I bought something from this store and I paid cash for it.
I took it home and found out it didn't work.
So today, less than 24 hours later I took it back and asked if I could get a refund.
The girl in the store told me “NO” even though I still had the receipt.
I asked if I could get a replacement instead then again this person told me "NO."
I asked to speak to a manager as I'm really annoyed.
I explained that I had just bought the item, had got it home and it didn't work.
The manager just smiled and told me to my face that I was "OUT OF LUCK."
No refund !!
No FREE replacement !!!

I'll tell you what...
I am NEVER buying another Lottery Ticket from there again !!!

Good one.
Clever posting it in this section rather than the jokes forum.
Totally fished me in.
Thanks

I’m grateful every Thanksgiving, UrbanE, that I live in a Country where our Constitutional Rights are upheld by the Rule of Law……. and where we, as citizens, are empowered by those 5 immortal words, “The consent of the governed”.

its all an ongoing process.
