If ever there was an unexpected
treasure hidden behind a plain exterior, this is it! Anyone who has
lived in Richardson, Texas as long as I have will remember the building
on Campbell and Nantucket as the original Sterlings catalog store. After
that, it was offices. Recessed off Campbell, is a nondescript building,
except for the fact that there are now huge letters on the front that
say Classic Cars, Banquet Rooms and NTX.
Hummer put together a very intriguing concept vehicle when it
put out the HX. This SUV has a removable roof, can be transformed from a
short bed pickup to a convertible and then back to the traditional
square Hummer. This vehicle is geared for a younger crowd that wants
versatility and I think they accomplished it. Saturn had a winner as
well with its compact SUV, the Saturn Vue. This vehicle is a 2-mode
hybrid and will be available later this year. It was a show stopper with
its fuel economy and is pleasant to look at.
Of course, I couldn't spit it out. How
could I? To do so would be a disgrace, but more important was my pride
and my arrival in the Chile Capital of The World. Instead I chewed as
Harvey looked on. Never once did his expression change and in fact it
wasn't until my eyes started to roll back inside my head, that he
cracked a grin. That impassive manner finally gave way and he burst out
laughing. But did I stop? Not a chance. i was too dumb to know what to
do.

Hannah's was just a hole-in-the-wall, long and
narrow with a bar running almost the whole length of the building. The
brick on the face of the building, and the white wooden door outside,
were nearly black from years of soot from the coke plant and steel
mills. Patrons tended to be older folks who spent what was left of their
paychecks on booze, Polish sausages, hard-boiled eggs, and illegal tip
boards. The dark
figure standing, staring by the street, is noticed by the two men in the
front seat of the truck, they stare but keep going, --trees blowing to
his right and left, the waves of the Great Lake of Superior, makes a
humming sound, and everything else, as if you were in the middle of a
hurricane, the stranger stands erect yet, never moving. He sees the eyes
of the passenger in the Ford-truck, a small figure, a man of about
forty, the driver calls him Skip, and he hears that. The taller man at
the wheel, his arms are solid, and frozen to the wheel, is called Amery,
for some reason you know he knows that.
I had just started on another beer when someone dropped a few
coins in the juke box. The music was bad country. To my utter disgust
the first song that played was that "I want to stick a boot up your
butt" super-patriotic, ultra-jingoist thing by the guy in the
buy direct truck centre commercials. The people around me began to sing
along loudly. So
far all that is being offered are the trimmings, what about where it
really counts? GMC's upgrades have been focused on the chassis and
powertrain. It's not as strong as the Ford F-Series with their Super
Duty, but the Sierra Denali has a 20,000 -pound maximum towing capacity
with a fifth wheel trailer like the Chevy Silverado HD. Its diesel
engine is the star of the show. GMC has made substantial upgrades with
their oiling system that saw an 11% increase in highway fuel economy and
a range of 680 miles thanks in part to its 36 gallon fuel tank. This is
certainly what many will want to hear with regards to saving gas. Luxury
is nice, but economy is even better regarding fuel prices. The
West Palm Beach Motorsports Examiner will be on hand for the event, and
will provide insight into the longest day in professional auto racing;
the Rolex 24! The
abovementioned are only a few of the things that you can do to save on
fuel consumption. Planning your trips and avoiding unnecessary travels
can also help you prevent yourself from going to the gasoline station
more often and thus save your money for something more
worthwhile.
