Unlike the VW of the '80's, the little elves in the Black Forest (and Puebla, Mexico), are actually making good cars again. Unfortunately, they aren't giving them away. :( But, I think Chevy still sells the awe-inspiring, great-for-camping "Cavalier" for around $12k (game-show like: oooooooooh...aaaaaaahhhhh!) or perhaps you'll find camping and travelling pleasure in a new $11k Pontiac "Sunfire" (oooooooooh...aaaaaaahhhhh + applause!) :) Happy fried-egg gmbulley cary, nc |
