My friend who works at GM. He was driving a Cadillac until the Aztecs bombed. Then he was driving an Aztec. Needless to say, he was quite upset!

Buy a $53,000 Blackwood at full price and receive a $17,000 Cougar free.

I don't know why, but that's funny as hell.

40k for a F-150 "GLE" ???
it looks very nice though, I would like to have one.

GM needs to build a high performance, technology test-bed fuel cell sports car now. The gearheads won't buy it because it isn't macho. The tree huggers won't buy it because it isn't gheyed up. I can swoop in on the fire sale.

The Cougar's are surprisingly comfy inside. My friend bought a 2000 Cougar and I was pleasantly surprised. Shame the outside is so ugly. I swear I have never seen such a large car-butt before.

I was concidering getting one at one point. Only SUV I can think of that is bigger than my truck . A guy at work got one for $25k (used) IIRC, and it was cool as hell. He got the v-10 IIRC, and he gets decent milege in the 10-12 range.

That reminds me, I should pprobably call him to make sure the computer I built for him is still working
