Great thread. Im loving reading all the different careers and jobs

Ya I was pretty sure I would take a lot of crap for resurrecting it but hasn't been a single negative comment. When I was reading it before I really noticed that there were no names I recognized so figured time to update.

I would think that the older guys that own these cars are actually very internet friendly. Now the Buick drivin crowd may be more afraid of all this new fangled technology stuff!
Screwed up and didn't record the poll numbers when I restarted the thread but the gap between the 20 year old and the 40 plus was a whole lot larger then it is now.
Just a guess with no facts to support but it may be because the younger guys ran out and bought as soon as they could and us older ones waited to make sure the car wasn't a huge flop. Seen a lot of "great cars" with massive hype come out over the years (anybody have a Pacer in their garage?) and i did a pile of reaserch before buying.

Wow I used to play there when it was at Ellsworth and Rittenhouse and that whole area was just open farmland. I take it that if you're the owner, Joe Osuch is gone now?

Let me rephrase, "... the soon to be 2nd largest automotive parts manufacturer in the world."
