They seem like they'd get blown away by a gust of wind.

I would ride a bike before I drove one of those.

What about the dodge caliber...they are AWD...which is ALMOST 4wd

I was not impressed by the build quality of these at all. Not to mention once you take anything apart it is one of the most difficult cars I have worked on to get back together.

I would definitely take the Mazda over the g6 as well. Though the g6 is easier to work on. So take that for what its worth. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Gotcha...
What would you reccomend that's American and easy to work on?

Honestly...Ford. I always told myself I would never own a ford product but they are getting much better these days. I mean it depends on what you are looking for as far as needs so I wouldnt blanket recommend them for everyone but some of there vehicles are pretty surprising.

It also depends on the kind of work you are talking. Whether it be stereo installation, simple panel detachment, alarm/remote start and data interfaces, build quality, etc.

word. The mazda has more reviews then the g6 really but oh well.

What do you mean by reviews? If you mean favorable than I agree wholeheartedly. Thus why I said I would rather take the Mazda. I was just saying from an installer stand point the g6 is easier.

You like the fusion? I think it's okay....Although I'd rather have a coupe. I like the new Mustangs, but people beat the shit out of them.

The fusion isnt a bad car at all. I have worked on quite a few and their owners seem pretty happy. The 500 was a great car as well just not well received since the eliminated the Taurus. The new Taurus is simply a slightly more 'refined' version of the 500. And I use that loosely since I actually think the 500 is a better car.

Not really much of a fan of the mustangs except a few customs I have seen done. With the glass roof they are pretty hot. But yeah used they usually are pretty beat on since its seems to be the number one car for hs students.

I know...I
The skyy is definitely sexy. If you like rwd for a performance perspective its pretty hard to beat a gto. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I like the way RWD cars drive....better I am used to the way they drive versus fwd. One of the reasons I bought a truck vs. a car....can't think of many other RWD american cars in the $15k range. (Used)

Camero or Firebird come to mind. Lincoln ls I really like, though you will see mixed reviews on these.

IMO they dont drive much different unless under duress but I could see some having a preference.

google gt6 and mazdaspeed3 and see which one has more reviews of the car and more favorable reviews. I think you'll see what I mean.
What do you mean by installer? Audio or mechanic?

Its not that deep. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Mostly audio. But also do performance, video, suspension, minor restoration, all electrical and some interior work.

If you bring a present to a bridal shower, do you also bring a present to the wedding....teh gf wants to know

We actually had this conversation not too long ago. IMO it comes down to how close you are with the couple. I happened to be in the wedding so I got presents for both.

But I am not sure what protocol on this situation is.

Doing?

FWIW I usually get a larger gift for the shower. Its more personal and they usually open it in front of you. Wedding gifts are usually after the fact so I usually just go small for that.
