I can’t believe you drove a ‘64 Rambler until 1978. That make died before I started driving, but my dad had a couple. He indicated that reliability and longevity were not Rambler qualities.

Texas A&M fired their horrible coach mid-season in 1978, and they finished 7th outta 8 in hoops. Back in a time when College Station was considered 'cosmopolitan' for East Texas. Back when we measured that brown tank's fuel economy not by the miles per gallon, but how many cigarette butts would accumulate in the two front ashtrays. Usually 40 had to accumulate (2 packs) which meant it was time to stop of and refuel, and buy more Winstons.

How many white crv/mazda/rav4s/highlander/hyundai/kia shitty crossovers can you look at? Cars used to be fun.

I drive them till they literally fall apart. Never had a bill for a car note in my life. Cars are just a thing that gets me from point A to point B, so long as it has air conditioning and something I can install a tape deck into for a tape deck adapter, I'm fine.

Were the Ramblers the 4 door whose front seat would fold down as flat as a bed? I think they had metal brackets attached to the frame of the back seat for support as they laid down.

Hey, since we are using the Burnt End funds to purchase @immamac's Surly Horns' ride, let's chill on the disparaging Cybertruck comments. They aren't appreciated by the committee.
August 1, 20241 yr i don't have time to fuck with secrant but someone absolutely needs to ask in every forum - are they really actually po'ed at us already? - what have we done in our first 28 days in the league that's pissed off anyone?aggy propaganda and revisionist history was more effective than we thought it would be. Yes, that's it In a nutshell.
August 1, 20241 yr Saw one in the wild the other day for the first time and could not believe how fucking ugly the thing was. Pictures do not do it justice. It's the most god awful thing I've ever seen. I said to my 11 year old, could you imagine paying so much money for something so hideous? He agreed, but also thought it was kind of cool. He's 11 so I gave him a pass.I passed 2 in a mini-convoy on I-20 a couple weeks back. Beyond the ugly they are somehow simultaneously smaller AND larger than they appear in pictures. That's the real engineering triumph.

August 1, 20241 yr I get it. You notice how so many players want to go to aggy but just somehow can’t get that notice by the coaches and have to slum down to going to play at Texas? Yea, me neither.
August 1, 20241 yr aggy propaganda and revisionist history was more effective than we thought it would be. Yes, that's it In a nutshell.Meh, the real sec fans have figured out aggy. The hate is from talking heads. I said it in another thread, but what Oregon did at the B1G media days by putting a 65’ duck in the river was cool and fun. If Texas would have done something similar at sec media days it would have been ridiculed for 25 hours a day.

Well call it a lesson learned, or maybe I'm stupid but I will NEVER be without a pickup if I can help it. I've only been "pickupless" once in my life from 2001-2005, and I'll be damned if I didn't need one every time I turned around. I guess it's an extreme case of "better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

August 1, 20241 yr Since just 2010, I’ve owned an older Silverado, a Sierra, down to a Tacoma, while my Company car was a shitty Chevy car, and finally back to owning a Ram truck. I hated driving the co car, as when one is used to driving higher (visibility wise), it’s tough to go down to a lower level.I’m one of those truck owners that outside the 6-10 trips to Lowe’s or HD and etc, there might be five other times annually that I really use a truck bed. I just like riding higher, appreciate the bigger engine, and the fact that I have the truck bed if I need it.Hook’em!!!

GREAT guy. My dad asked him for any advice he was willing to pass on to me. Howe said "you have two eyes and a mouth and you already know which one you need to keep shut." When I see Zuhn and Weigman running off like this, it's very clear that, at a minimum, they just haven't thought this through. And that's probably stating the situation very generously. Then again, as amazing as Howe was, he probably set NHL player salaries back by a decade by kind of timidly refusing to open his mouth and complain about team owners not paying fair wages so maybe I'm wrong.
