Corvette Museum Sinkhole

[jwgreen6]

I for one, am glad this happened when the museum was closed. Could you imagine the furor if people were caught in that sinkhole during normal business hours?

Why would I want to pull a trailer? Wouldn't you buy a truck to pull a trailer?

The way you're talking about chevy, ford, dodge an all them can fall in a sink hole or burn where you going to get a truck?

Still got the Japanese OEMs, plus some of the German SUVs can tow a bit.
IMO, the sink hole represents the bailout, and the priceless cars is our tax dollars that we'll never see again. But that's a whole other thread.

Nissan. Don't care if the towing capability is less or the Hp is less or whatever. They are reliable. My Pathy is 14yo and as good as new. I would buy a Nissan truck in a second.

Sorry. I like our military and appreciate what they do. Just don't like American cars.

Great analogy, and also a beautifully polished can of worm.


One of the youtube comments suggested that they should install a glass floor and turned it into an exhibit, like from the movie Demolition Man.
