ArchBishop and I are practically mortal enemies.  He's the Moriarty to my Holmes.  Read the "Who Do You Want to be President" thread.

He's still trying to kiss your ass in this thread and elsewhere that I can't remember right now.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.

No offense intended, but why such a drab color?

Yeah, you're right.  The best of the lot is a dark red.

frankly for 33 city and 34 highway, I can't see the expense of a hybrid.

the hybrid only gets 33/34? i thought it got more than that

That's what I got off of edmundsfor the 2008 model.  the 2007 was 40/38.  Perhaps the difference was the downgrading in actual mileage by the EPA.

oh the old and new EPA ratings. Either way, I wouldn't buy a hybrid camry just to get 33/34

I've never seen anyone get EPA ratings in the hybrids i've seen.

Don't you know? Bright colors increase your carbon footprint like 20 times!
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?
