Replying to: rockylee (Mar 09, 2007 10:15 pm) Harry Reid got rich (extremely rich) from his political career, and the land deals it enabled him to transact with inside information. He's been clipped for a few of them, but very few indeed. Land speculation here, for those who can afford to, is a sure thing. He's hoping to get a call to be VP in 08 to whomever gets the nomination.

Replying to: nvbanker (Mar 13, 2007 2:38 pm) Well I'd love to do just that.  Harry, doesn't have the clout to get picked as a running mate by any of the contenders. Obama, Edwards, are most likely to get those slots IMHO. Harry, has way to many skeletons in his closet for the right to hammer him on and is often looked at as a flip flopper. Rocky |

A reporter with a national news magazine is hoping to talk to consumers who drove to Woodstock. If you drove in a VW Microbus with a psychedelic paint job, that would be great too. The reporter will speak to anyone who drove to Woodstock. Please reply to ctalati edmunds.com no later than Wednesday, March 21, 2007 with your daytime contact info.

1992 Mustang-Got it from aunt as my first car. Was part of trade in deal for Mazda 626(see below.) 1998 Mazda 626 LX 4 cyl-nice gas mileadge, interior and nice cloth seats. Was sad to see car go at the time! Was a leased car. 2002 Acura CL(base) Nice car and have had it for 5 1/2 years with 57,600 miles on it. Just got the rear brakes and rotors done and oil is changed every 3,000 miles. Next car: probably back to Mazda or maybe a Mitsu(they seem to have their act back together) although I can keep the Acura for a 3-5 more years. |

how many miles my Mom & stepdad's '99 Altima has on it, but as of Mother's Day last year, it was right around 200,000. Probably over 230,000 by now. Initially I thought the car was going to be a piece of crap because its tranny had to be rebuilt at 35,000 miles, and then around 80,000 miles it left them stranded. Twice. But Nissan rebuilt the tranny with no fuss whatsoever, and the stranding thing was due to the battery going bad prematurely. Odd, back in the old days you could actually pull a battery out of a car while it was running, and you'd be fine. Well, until you turned the car off, that is! I guess you can't do that any more? Other than those two problems though, I don't think the car has needed anything other than regular maintenance stuff. AFAIK, the car's still running fine, but they want to get something new because they travel down to Florida a lot, and with the car getting up in mileage, that could get risky.
