Your comments prove that you don,t know automotive journalism or facts.I was speaking of the current design of the latest generation of the Mustang.Heck,Ford was promoting this Viet engineer and giving him full credit for the retro design.He was born in Vietnam,and was a refugee and came to this country as a child or teenager,I forget which.But one thing that I am sure of,we all paid for his free education,and Ford probably hired him under the immigration crap.

Well with all due respect, you can look at this in one of two ways. You can look at the possibility that he has a family that has done things that has made us our enemy and should carry that status on top of ripping off an education at our expense, or you can look at it this way. He choose a better life for himself that included getting away from the ways of his parents. Yes, he has an education at our expense, but unlike thousands of "professional college students" or civilian Gov't employees who don't ask but instead demand what their country can do for them get a bunch of degrees in subjects that they don't need to fulfill their duties just to one up each other and in some cases can get off of working for to go full time while having tuition paid for AND get full pay at the same time just to do basic office work meanwhile the people risking their lives to maintain our freedom get paid next to nothing, this person is repaying the tax payers by becoming a valuable taxpayer himself by creating wealth AND providing the country with a car that they will love and adore.

I don't believe people should be judged because of who their parents are because many times the children are very much unlike their parents and that can be good or bad. There are cases in history that we know of like in the case of royal families and in family dominated companies like Ford and Anheuser-Busch where the brats of a good leader run the country or company into the ground, but the United States by definition is a country of opportunity still and many people who were previously persecuted or from a poor background have become rich and successful. My theory is let each person prove themselves. Don't expect that just because someone shares the same last name as someone else that they are the same person and will have the same impact on the world.

Well said. I pray we can hang on to the American way. I am so much against redistribution of wealth and various other crutches that try to even out the field. Its America, put some effort forth and don't penelize ambition and good old "get it done". As far as leagle immigration... I'm all for it and it enriches the country with more diverse flavours. Heres to the American way and the American Muscle... "long live American Muscle". When folks live the American dream they then understand what we are all about. Freedom to be what your goals will let you be.

The more I see the Camaro, the better it looks....to a point. I guess you just have to get use to it's new look. But having said that, I still like the Challenger 100% better in most all areas, and I have to also say that I think the Mustang even looks better than the new Camaro. Would I buy a new Camaro? In this day and age when the muscle car seems to be going away (perhaps for the last time)...yes, if I had the extra money I would buy one, fortunately I don't have that much extra money laying around (thank you Federal Government) so I don't have to prove that I would.......
Just remember that both Camaro and Mustang owners are our brothers in that they are facing the same ax as we are....
It was nice while it lasted....

Well someone had to be first......luckly it was a rental from Avis. Spotted at the DFW airport...Looks as if someone tried to take flight, after the flight.....Story stated that the Camaro was a V-6 and only had 1,100 miles on it...."Break it in, or break it"....that's how I drive my rentals....................RIP poor Camaro......V-6 or not you deserved better....

On the question of does the new Camaro look retro, you decide

'08 Challenger SRT8 vs '70 Challenger T/A

As an owner of a 2010 Camaro 2LT RS and a 2008 Challenger SRT8...


Both cars have their pros and cons, I'm just glad that we have these two cars back on the streets!
