Sorry to hear that Keith. But now you know you should NEVER talk about getting a new car in front of your old one.

P.S. Can you the remote Starter be saved? The Contour would use it as a symbol to the Olds. Through the remote starter your Olds would live forever!

I'm just kidding about the starter Keith. I personally think that you should hang up the Olds grill in your bedroom.

Sorry for the lose BadPewter. Must be a bad winter for Olds. My '92 Supreme is still giving me guff (even after 1400 bucks of work to her ).

The Silverado is sweet.....good luck with it!
