Hi Mike and friends.

This FOG is leaving too. Between the gas/brake/emer brake...and my bigimus feeticus, It didn't work for me anymore and she's gone.:alone: :cry: Wife got a Milan and I get the old Riviera with lotso room for my big feet. So If you see a car that looks like a silver porpoise cruising the lot at the next chicken run....:coolman:

I'll still be lurking around here though. I'd miss you guys too much for that.

Sorry to hear about it D, you'd better catch up with one of us at the meets.

I guess I think everyone should feel the same, as I do, toward the Marauder.
Man,... I need help!:o
It's still the folks, more than the car.

14 5E....I had to wave off an F-4 once that wanted to land on my foot.;) N I tried to find some driving shoes to help but couldn't get em that big.:confused:

Ya know what's funny, no foot room issue in the new Milan...It's a nice car but it's no MM.

I think the only issue that I have with my 2004 Marauder is the gas/brake pedal issue. I have size 13-14EEE shoes (assuming this is the problem), and I've had the foot stuck, sudden acceleration thing happen several times. Each time I was able to react instantly and save the day. But I really do not like the adjustable pedals. I think it's a recall waiting to happen, and its not required by tall drivers. Now everytime I get into my Marauder I have to be extra carefull to make sure my feet are in the proper position and to think about it everytime I step on the brakes.

I also noticed at the Chicago Auto Show earlier this year that the brake pedal on the GM was wider! This is normally a subconscious thing you do when you drive. Having to be aware of this constantly hurts the driving experience, especially in heavier traffic and when parking.
