[BaadAssGremlins] Re: wagons ho! (what did you do with your amc today)

Hey Eddie,  Glad somebody is getting nice weather as all I had was a "balmy" 15 degrees overnight with a warming trend to about freezing here in Southeast Michigan. Not thinking much about my Gremlins yet, but settled in on the couch watching the new Chrysler ad on TV that Eminem introduced during the Superbowl giving some much needed "props" to the City of Detroit. Gremlins can come out in about another 3 more months. BTW as much as I liked your "stable" of cars in the pictures of your post I really much more liked the pic of you and the "stable" of blue bikini clad babes (white stars to highlight "accessories) you have posted somewhere in your website photo gallery. Those colors turned heads a lot more than fawn beige, but I imagine your Mrs. keeps your eyes on the tire racks rather than the other racks whenever possible...
