  1. Had they tried the Bottle Infrontofme approach prior to that?
  2. Mentioned seeing this commercial to my boss today and apparently she'd seen it too or had heard of it elseware and wants us to bring up that we also offer lay-a-way if somebody is on the fence.
  3. Probably smart, they won't stick out like a Crown Vic would.....and can still get out of their own way, unlike the Impala after a good heat soak.
  4. Could be a little from of both, Dad was telling me today that where he grew up in Iowa back in the 40's and 50's, that's how anybody got much of anything.
  5. I saw a new K-Mart commercial before going to work this morning and thought it was kinda interesting. I woman tells her husband that she is going Christmas shopping and he makes some smart arse comment about the pumpkins bearly being carved. Next scene they show her pushing a stuffed to overflowing shopping car up to the K-Mart Lay-A-Way counter. The main push of the commercial was to put the hottest/latest stuff on layaway so you can give them as gifts and have them on hold now and not have to worry about paying for it here and now. Now I'm only 32 years old, but I don't ever remember seeing a commercial that specifically advertises the use of Lay-A-Way. Are those out there that are either older or more observant than I that remember seeing these kinds of commercials in the past?

  7. I didn't look at the back seat until I got these pics in the computer tonight.
  8. Wanna make a bet that back seat would suck with that cage back there!
  9. Sweet, what's your thoughts on it? I also took a picture of the Charger cruiser kit's interior....I will warn you, it's not the best pic though....
  10. Looks good, wasn't NHRA looking at actually racing trucks like this at one time....until they realised a Fuel motored pickup would be a little dangerous for those crazey enough to strap one on
  11. Can't wait to get there tomorrow, looks like it'll be a good show! Hey Gregg, did you get any pics of that Axial Scale Trail Truck with the '54 Chevy style truck body?
  12. Like the color combo too!
  13. Not going to even bother with this one
  14. By the looks of it on that other forum, he's getting better!
  15. It's saddening to hear this, but my best wishes go out to his family, they've made a tough decision for sure.
  16. Been on the wrong end of a drunk driver myself, I wish him the best of luck on recovery.
  17. Here's an update on how well the race went for these guys!
  18. Apparently they're shooting for 1500lbs on that car and it has OEM, period corect, Factory Model A front end parts on it too Now guys, wrap you heads around these numbers 450hp.....1000ft-lbs of torque.....1500lbs curb weight and the capability to spin the motor up to 7200rpm while burning electricity provided by a 290v 1000AMP battery pack, in rc terms that is 1,000,000mAh!! It'll make the HP and rpm of a healthy small block, the torque of a healthy diesel, in a car that probably weighs what that healthy diesel and equally sturdy trans alone would weigh Mileage isn't good enough to be considered horrible......but it is a drag car right now
  19. I'm beginning to think that after looking at the ground just behond the front tire.
  20. I'll just "quote" what the O.P. on NAXJA.org posted about the project. Check out the vids he posted too, all is work safe, but you do need Quicktime to view the vids.
  21. Old enough to know better, but still to young to care Seriously....I'm 32, but in some cases the above could describe my 60+ y/o parents They don't mind my hobbies, Mom came to the conclusion some years back that I could be doing plenty of things with the money I've blown on plastic and R/C that are far, far worse than playing with toy cars
  22. Square bar and all, very cool!
