tom and ray tell me that I must put up my Eclipse GSX for sale (hey
it's a '97 so it'd be cheaper and (but for some reason)  slower than
Ledford's) and buy a rolling coffin:

1.  Mercedes Benz 320
2.  Volkswagen Eurovan
3.  Ford EXP
4.  Honda Passport
5.  Saab 9000CD

I am taken to task because I am too much a risk taker, too generous
and touchy feely, too right brained and too educated for an Eclipse.
Geez, I thought it was a fun rush to launch the AWD at 5000 RPM, and
to let the turbo push its way through 3rd gear.   They tell me I need
to calm down.  Besides the police sure like my car, and they aren't so
educated!

But if I could get a Eurovan, EXP or Passport through tech...what
class would it run?  Maybe I could get those anti rollover exterior
side brackets Consumers reports uses for SUVs.....   Hey, I could say
that they were an EXTERNAL roll cage!

AND I'd have a good excuse when I go slow and hit pylons!

PS.  I think Tom and Ray are projecting their insecurities about old
age and  impotence on us unsuspecting car-a-scopers.
