Harry,
If you dropped some weight, exercised and remained flexible, you wouldn't
have problems getting in and out of the Mustang.

Hey Don!! Careful......I am an old guy and I like that yellow V-8
Mustang.
I think it looks damn good!

It's a cute car, no question about it. But to see an old fart like
Herring driving one? What an absurdity.
Harry, I don't suffer from NPD, and therefore am not too concerned with
what people think when they
see me driving my Mustang. I'm just having fun!

Once again, you don't understand what you read. My comment was not
directed at your feelings about your cute car, but the giggles others
must get when they see an old fart like you driving it.

Whether their laughter "concerns" you was not the subject of my post.

Hey, if half the kids in this county (or so it seems) weren't driving
one, I wouldn't mind owning one. But not yellow. Silver, maybe, or
black, if it comes in black.

Our local Ford dealer had a GT in the showroom, and I got to sit in it.
Wonderful car, at least in looks, but...getting out of a car that close
to the ground ain't easy when you're 6'3".

Being 6'3.5" myself, I haven't had the problem. The driver's leg room is
much more than any Cadillac
I've sat in.


Another example of your inability to read. I wasn't discussing leg room.
Perhaps you should insert a mental (.) period between each word when you
read.

JohnH,
The problem is'NT the height, it is the height to weight ratio.

You're be right again. I'd forgotten how difficult it might be for someone of great bulk to get out
of a low seat. My apologies for not seeing the obvious.

Yes, I realized the problem after Harold corrected me. I stand humbly corrected and have apologized
for my erroneous assumption.

Great bulk matters.

My Acura MDX was manufactured in Montreal. It's a nice vehicle that I
really enjoyed for the three year lease. It's based loosely on the
Odyssey minivan they build at the same plant.


Dan, you say that your Acura MDX was made in Montreal? There are no
Honda/Acura plants in Montreal, Quebec. There are two plants in Alliston
Ontario. I don't think that they made the Acura MCX in either of these two
plants. Could you check again and let me know? Thanks

Jim C.


I can't "check again" since the lease expired over a year ago and the
window sticker went with it. Maybe it was Ontario. I thought it was
Montreal. It was Canada and if it came from Japan that would have been
fine, too.

What's really the difference? The fact that the city is in Quebec?

I was just curious as to where it was made. I am retired from the auto
industry and I knew that Honda did not have a plant in Montreal. I have
since found out that your vehicle was made in Alliston.

I don't know how or why Chrysler stays in business.



Up here, they sell a lot of Chyrsler mini-vans. The base models can be

The Toyota Sienna is much better vehicle but at $30K CDN.... a tad
expensive.


Ahh, the minivan. Yes. I forgot about those. Not my taste.


My Acura MDX was manufactured in Montreal. It's a nice vehicle that I

Isn't that an over-sexed Pilot, at twice the cost?



I bought it before the Pilot was announced. Twice the cost? I don't
think you can get a Pilot for $19K.

What do you mean by "over-sexed"? The Acura had standard leather seats,
power everything, memory seats, mirrors, etc, Homelink, 6-CD in dash
changer, etc. I have no idea what you get standard with the Pilot.


Dan, it is a term used to descibed the higher cost line from automakers such
as Lincoln's are oversexed Ford's; Cadillac's are oversexed Chevy's;
Chyrsler's are oversexed Dodge's and Porsche's are oversexed VW's.


There are a few common models between these pairs but not as many as
there were years ago. The Chrysler/Dodge comparison has about ended,
right? I can't think of any that are like the Taurus and Sable, except
for the minivans that I haven't followed.

Dan, I just checked and this vehicle was manufactured in Alliston Ontario.

If you checked then I'm sure you are right. Are you anti-Quebec? I'm
not attacking you, I really don't get your point.

Hi Dan. I was just curious as to where it was made. I knew it wasn't made
in Montreal as that city does not have an auto plant. It is a city that
manufactures great aircraft but no cars.

No, I love Quebec! It is a beautiful Province of Canada. Have you been
there? Quebec City is even more beautiful than Montreal!
