Re: [Fwd: more humor/wasted bandwith]
I will note for the record that my family owned the FIRST Nisan pathfinder
in NJ in late 1986. And I used it to haul around a snowblower on my way to
$2k and $3k winters cleaning driveways. And hauling stuck S-Class' and
7-Series' out of their driveways where they were stuck sideways! No, didn't
have to help any Audis. No, didn't go "off-road" (weeeelll, across some
lawns!), but I got more use out of that car than ANY of the fools with Range
Rovers that have adjustable suspensions, headlight and taillight cages for
"protection" and people returning them the next day cause they can't fit in
their garage!
