at least the Pinto would let you tap it in the rear before it exploded...?

Hey, OP...

Hyundai is working on solving your problem. The vice chairman of Hyundai, Chung Eui-sun, said this in an interview with Bloomberg:

What kind of “Wow!” technology does Hyundai have that can you share with us?
We’d like to be far ahead of everyone else in hologram technology. We are working on holograms that can be displayed inside the car on dashboards and even in the passenger seats. It can be controlled with voice system. While you are driving, a secretary or wife can be sitting next to you as a hologram.

Would offering the kids in the trade be like having extra sets of wheels to sweeten the value? Just asking.

Yeah! In a heartbeat. Less expensive in the long run, more fun, lower maintenance, doesn’t tell me to vacuum or put on pants before going outside. It’s an obvious upgrade.


Oh no. She heard me. I gotta run. Wish me luck.

Much as I'd love to say yes, lol - practically speaking, that's a non-starter.

You see, it is my wife's name on the documents for our 997 Turbo, so although I might be up by one Porsche, I'd be down one wife and one Porsche in exchange...

Yours Aye

If I was stupid enough to marry, I would do it in a heartbeat.

In Canadia land, The spoils of war are divided equally.

So, wife has house in her name (though a marital home is considered split 50/50 no matter who pay's the mortage), wife also has a pension, company shares, a nice little savings account.

All told she has more asset's than me, so has "more to loose"
The only thing she would get, is my daughter, regardless if she was a druggie, hooker and I a model pillar of the community. (Men are 3rd class citizens in Canadia)

So, even with my savings, I would come out ahead. Or at least to a position I was in when I first landed, however my years of service and pension (had I not left the UK) would have been lost, had I not got married so I would be on a looser.
