["hemmigremmie" <hemmigremmie@xxxxxxxxx>]

Not to make anyone mad, but I kinda expect people to act a little 
silly when they see my Gremlin, but thats why I like em.
Its not that there really making fun of our cars, but the Gremlin 
kinda lets people enjoy a car while having fun with it. Does that 
make sense?
I like my car and thats all that matters. If I wanted to be like 
everyone else, Id have got a Mustang or a Camaro.
Let em giggle and have fun. Rod
