- In watching the news with Brian Williams on both CNBC & MSNBC, there was a interesting report on what may be even a bigger danger to LBC's in America than the Brit's taking them back to the UK. If my

- Many years ago I was racing a kid in a Jaguar MK 10 sedan. He stopped in front of me to talk with someone(guess which car was faster). I coouldn't stop and ran into the back of him. Both cars were to

- Since I own both an MGB and a Tahoe (probably 10x more destructive than say, a Honda Passport), I guess the percentages may be skewed for me...I say balderdash to the whole anti-SUV movement!!! Who's

- That's a possiblity. I'd bet the service life of a DC3 is far longer than that of an AirBus A310. Take a look at the pix of crash tested MGBs. The cars were a foot or more shorter front and rear, wit
