I like the open top thing a ma gig. Kind of cool just like some cars and trucks recording the idling hours.

My question has always been: "if it fails to work properly, and it bumps another car, can I sue? Can I be sued?"
It seems like there would have to be a waiver of some sort signed before using...I mean, I would almost hope to tap another car, or a curb, and then claim whiplash. I would actually like to go to a dealership and test that out formyself sometime.
Although, come to think of it, women may find it useful...:rolleyes:

I love the LED lighting featrue in my Mustang. The Cubholders light up, the door sills, and ambient light underneath the dash. And they are absolutely right, you can change color depending on mood

My '01 Neon has a cup-holder molded in the under-side of the center console arm rest, for rear passenger use. It requires that you open the center console lid 180 degrees until it rests between the rear seats. I will not, however, give up the use of my center console lid to rest my elbow in a hole (the center console storage compartment) whilst I shift the 5 speed. Screw the rear passengers, they can hold their own drinks. One is almost 7 years old for :censor:'s sake. :shake:

Maybe after I read that huge instruction booklet for it. Aparently Top Gear couldn't do it without it. How many people you know are gonna actually read that.

Kinda like the Suzuki 'ESTEEM'.
.....or lack thereof....
BTW: I'd find a fart diffuser much more useful than a fragrance diffuser.

Absolutely right. For the first 5 minutes it was weird, after that I dug it and wish I had that in the Rauder. I really like the fact that you can alter the color hundreds of shades. The only drawback is all the stereo and heater controls in the center remain their preset colors.

This is true,once I changed everything to red, it would have been cool if the radio followed suit like everything else

Damn I didn't even catch that, subliminal wishful thinking?
