Re: AMC The Under Dog.



Watch the current Sears Christmas TV ad.  It is the one where people are
walking through snowy city streets carrying large wrapped gift items.
Towards the end of the ad, on ghe left of the screen, is a AMC Pacer covered
with snow.

> I'm right there with you Doc!! I can't say ALL my cars have been AMCs, as
my "primary family car" (mainly meaning the wife's car) has always been
something different, unless you'll make an exception for the 91 Comanche and
93 Cherokee we had for about three years (one with the Comanche, two the
Chero). But MY primary vehicle (the family's "second car") has been an AMC
(61-63 Rambler, American for the first 16 years) since 1979 (I graduated in
1980, the first car I bought was a $100 61 American wagon). In all that time
I was without a Rambler only when I shipped off for service. Then I bought
something else, and it took 16 months before I had to have another! Since 79
those 16 months are the only time I've been without one.
