the airplanes were such a good idea, that he bought some at the airport nad
installed them in the family Dodge. I grew up thinking that the neighbors

Yep - I was taught to drive without seat belts, until I took driver's ed.
However, my thin wallet taught me real quick to drive with seat belt,
as I hate to pay the local police their fines.

I used to think that way too, but now I want less stuff, and better
quality. Maybe that's not the right wording, but I want to spend the time I
devote to cars in a different way now. The thought of having to wash and
wax 10 cars poops me out. lol

I've seen a few spy shots of the next generation Maybach, well, a test mule

off, as sales are so soft compared to others in it's class, like the RR,
which was a big success for them. Also talk of a smaller Maybach, kind of

I didn't, maybe I should have. But, I bet if they are driving a Maybach, they
already have a lawyer - probably one that charges a whole more per hour than I
do.
