John,
My mom spent Monday afternoon at the Cascades Casino (the one in Langley) while you
were with me. She said that traffic was nuts everywhere due to both high volume and
construction. She heard on the radio on her way home that there was snow that afternoon
(afternoon of Monday the 21st) near the Port Mann Bridge, on the Coquitlam side. And then once
my dad got home a few minutes after you left, he said that he saw a few snowflakes when coming
down the hill to the Queensborough Bridge after he left work. Also two days ago after you left,
my mom went to get the mail and we got a letter from UBC...it’s a survey “for families of people
who receive services from CLBC” that my parents will fill out. And my dad thought he might go to
the casino in Cloverdale by himself for a bit this evening because he has a coupon for that
casino that’s use-up-time is just about to expire and also because he just feels like getting
out.
My mom wasn't feeling well yesterday (and she still feels the same today), so she had
me feed my upstairs fish (the angelfish who you previously read can now only see out of one eye)
yesterday afternoon because she wasn’t up to feeding them. And that was the first time I fed my
own fish since before Christmas. Keep in mind that my mom also wasn’t well the weekend before
last weekend, she says that she feels worse this time. I hope that
Carol doesn’t get sick this often, I should be keeping these kind of
things in mind incase I do end up living with
her.
I only got four hours of sleep the night
before you came (Sunday night), I first didn’t fall asleep until 3AM and then I slept til
just after 6 and then another hour from sometime between 8 and 9 til just after 10. And I didn’t
have trouble sleeping for a long time, I thought that
having three increases in my medication (my Luvox) was helping with
the sleep problems. I previously told you that most nights lately I’ve been getting my average
amount of sleep which I’d say would be about seven hours, I even slept good the night before the
last couple appointments I had. I didn’t have anything to eat or drink the day before
(nothing to eat or drink on Sunday the 20th) that has caffeine, and in the message I sent you on
Sunday Mar.2,2008
I detailed about that I don’t like laying in bed awake for long periods
of time in the middle of the night. I had a much better sleep the
night before last night (Monday night) though until I fell asleep the first time I kept
having to get up and urinate and I also kept having messy toots, that wasn’t a good evening for
my stomach two nights ago. And then Logan started up his car just after 8:30AM the next
morning (yesterday morning), and then it sat there running for five minutes before he drove
away. Logan started up his car at around ten after 8 this morning and then it sat running
for five minutes again before it drove away.
My mom told me that the lead story on Monday’s Noon News before you came was they caught a
suspect in the recent rash of car keyings around the Vancouver area.
We brought the green tin of white and chocolate ROYAL DANSK Danish cookies in from the garage
that I got for Christmas and I had three of them for my dessert after lunch two days ago before
you came, one white and two chocolate. My mom had a hard time trying to get the seal to come off
when she opened the cookies for me on Monday before I had my first three, there was plastic
sticky tape over where the lid meets the can and it was this tape that kept breaking into little
pieces. She also had trouble two weeks ago when I had the first couple Cadbury milk chocolates
that she and my dad gave me for Christmas, they were in an awkward box that was harder to open.
I remember my mom complained that evening two weeks ago when she was trying to open that box of
Cadburys, quote “why can’t they make these boxes easier to open.” And now she just threw away
that box and put the rest of those chocolates in another tin. Now
that I finished those HERSHEY’S EGGIES that we got in bulk last month from
Save-On, for my evening snack last night I had half of the Cadbury Mini Eggs that we got that
same day from Save-On. And there are now enough Cadbury Mini Easter Eggs left for one snack. The
HERSHEY’S EGGIES looked more like the coloured milk chocolate eggs that I had the last few years
at Easter though I thought the Cadbury ones tasted really good.
I’m sorry I couldn’t try any of your mom’s cookies when you were here two afternoons ago, I
wrote to you previously about how I limit myself to no more than two
things per day that have caffeine in them so that I don’t have the
sleep problems at night. You now know first about the two chocolate Danish cookies that I had
for my dessert after lunch and then for my dessert after supper that same day I planned to have
an Oreo pudding cup. The cranberry juice that I had with my afternoon snack when you were here
two days ago is from a big bottle of Ocean’s Spray brand that my mom got at Save-On’s case lot
sale when she was there last Tuesday (the
15th), she also picked up some
Neapolitan ice
cream when she was there that same day. I like this stuff and
sometimes I like to have ice cream in a cone for my afternoon snacks or in a dish
with bananas for my evening snacks.
My mom saw the allan gummies one time a few months ago at the Zellers in Semiahmoo Mall, but
hadn’t seen them there again since. And that was the only other place where she saw them besides
London Drugs. When you read this part of the last message that I sent you last Sunday
(the 20th), you thought I meant something like “I was disappointed that my mom got me the JOLLY
RANCHER gummies instead and that I had never tried the allan gummies before.” I meant that
I can’t remember whether or not I tried the JOLLY RANCHER ones
before and that I was disappointed that they
might’ve stopped making the allan gummies, again I thought that those allan gummies were
good and were one of the best that I had experienced so far out of all the different types of
gummies I tried over the years:
> ...She got me some JOLLY RANCHER gummies instead. She can’t remember and I can’t remember
myself
> whether or not I had these before, I guess I’ll find out when I try them. I am disappointed
though, I thought
> those allan gummies were really good and they were one of the best ever out of all the
different types of
> gummies I tried over the years.
I don’t know why you misread that it was “my friend,” Mac, who my dad picked up and then gave
a ride home last Friday (the 18th) or why you thought that it could’ve been some other
person we know named Mac:
> ...A few minutes before my dad got home on that same day (on Friday), he phoned us
to let us know that
> they were waiting for the traffic light at 152nd and 16th when he (my dad) saw
my friend, Mac, cross in
> front of them. My dad gave Mac a ride home after he dropped off the rest of the people in his
carpool...
After my dad saw Mac cross the street in front of him, he dropped off Janice who just lives
around the corner from that intersection and then he drove back and picked up Mac who was
waiting at a bus stop outside in the cold. I guess that was nice of my dad to give Mac a ride
home instead of making him wait for a bus out in the cold. Once my dad picked Mac up, he then
drove back to our street to drop off Wen in his carpool. Wen was the last person to be dropped
off and Janice was the second to last, my dad then drove Mac home after he dropped off Wen.
I remember when you were here two days ago you told me about how your definition of “cheap”
means that maybe my cousin, Jenny, didn’t like the “cheap” rings that her boyfriend, Danny, gave
her. Jenny doesn’t have a lot of money and she just happened to find this one ring that looked
like it was more expensive:
> ...And my cousin, Jenny, called us in the evening that same day (on Friday),
she said that she gave
> Danny the ring for his birthday and he gave her a couple cheap rings.
Jenny didn’t know how
> much the ring is worth that she found and gave to
Danny. Jenny also said that same phone call
> two evenings ago that she was starting to get her cold back.
You thought that the reason why I chose on my own for use to watch “Squeal of Fortune” was
because this one has muppets in it, a lot of the YouTube videos that I sent you links to have
muppets in them and here again is why I said in the
previous message that
I made my own decision for us to watch this one:
> • Sesame Street Game Show Sketches: Squeal of Fortune
> This is one video that I decided on my own for us to watch, as soon as I saw it under the
“Related Videos” I
> said “let’s watch this one” because I remember this was one of my
favorite generic Sesame Street
> segments of All Time...a muppet spoof of “Wheel of
Fortune.” And a good choice I made on your behalf
for
> us to watch this because The Count is one of the
contestants.
> • John Goodman on Sesame Street:
> Another video that I decided on my own for us to watch because John
Goodman played in a TV series
> I watched a few years ago called
“Center
of the Universe” plus I saw him in
“Arachnophobia<font color="#FF0000">,” “The
> Borrowers,”
and he did one of the voices in
“Monsters
Inc.”
My mom saw the weather forecast on today’s Noon News and tomorrow doesn’t look good, they’re
predicting rain, clouds, wind, etc and they’re also predicting that Friday and Saturday will be
better days so I thought for my snack when you’re here tomorrow
afternoon I might have some Fruit Mania with my cranberry juice. And depending how I feel on
Monday, I thought that maybe we could taste test A&W’s onion rings for my snack that
afternoon, at the food court one in Semiahmoo Mall. Sorry, John, but
it doesn’t look like we’ll be going out in your “new Ferrari“
tomorrow .
I guess I have a pragmatic personality. I told you I’m not gunna worry about whether someone
buys me a ring or a tattoo either for my birthday or for Christmas knowing at least as for the
tattoo that I never plan to have one anywhere on my body because those things are
“permanent” meaning that they last forever. You asked me if I ever had the type of tattoo put on
me when I was a kid and that only lasts for a day, all I can think of are these tattoos that
came with a couple Power Rangers action figures that I bought a long time ago though I didn’t
mind them and wasn’t like you who wanted the tattoo to come off after it had only been on for a
couple hours.
After you said when you were here two days ago that you didn’t put the ping pong ball under
the dog’s ear, I said that my mom didn’t do it and I know I didn’t do it. You then asked me if
maybe my dad did it. Even though I then said to you that I thought probably not because it isn’t
like him to do things like that though I also said when I said this that sometimes you just
never know, my dad said that he did do it. He found the ping pong ball on the floor in our
downstairs computer room and didn’t know where to put it. Once I showed my mom your “allan
gummie boat,” she said that “we’re getting quite a collection there.” I took a picture of your
“allan gummie boat,” speaking about which, next to my mom’s latest sculpture after my dad
charged up my camera the day before and then we found your ping pong ball two evenings
ago (on Monday evening) that you’ve been waiting three weeks for us to find, we found it in
our living room. My mom said quote “how silly, it’s on top of the dog’s head.”
My dad walked up to Revy yesterday at lunch and got a new flick switch for the wall in my
bathroom upstairs that allows the ceiling fan to come on automatically when the humidity gets so
high. We’ve been looking for a long time for replacement parts for underneath that fan’s cover
and thought that they don’t make parts for this type of bathroom fan anymore until
the guy at RONA said to my dad yesterday that he can
bring the fan into Revy and they’ll replace the parts for him. And if the fan still doesn’t work
like we want it to after we do this, then more work will have to be done on my bathroom ceiling
before a newer and quieter fan can be installed.
When I told my mom that you were looking at that pamphlet where I scanned the image that I
sent you of the 2008 Honda Accord, she said that it sounds like you would really like a new car.
And there’s a coupon inside that pamphlet for $1,000 off the new Accords. Too bad that green
Honda Accord we saw on our walk last Thursday afternoon (the 17th) wasn’t for sale, it
didn’t have a sunroof and it looked more like my parents’ 2001 model. I saw two days ago when we
looked at the Honda Accord that the one in
this image
also looks like my parent’s current model while for some reason the one in the scanned image
from the pamphlet is more the look that you know I didn’t like. Because the image on Wikipedia
is of a 2006 or 2007 model, I wonder if maybe 2007 was the last year of my parents’ model. I
thought that the one in the pamphlet looked more like
a Volkswagen Passat or Jetta until I went and looked
at the Jetta’s
image on Wikipedia, which is of a 2008 model, and saw that it looks
more like my parents’ 2001 Honda even though I still won’t ride in the Jetta, the Passat, or any
Volkswagen at all. Maybe it was an older model of a car built by Volkswagen that looked like the
2008 Honda Accord. Maybe we could just check out the Honda Accord anyway when you’re here
tomorrow afternoon; see what the current model’s features are, see what it’s all about, etc.
When looking at cars I only pay attention to things like its colours (both exterior
and interior), seating, cargo, and “electronics/stereo systems" but
I don’t pay attention to engines and wheels which are things that I don’t
know a lot about so these are things that I leave for my parents to look at. I’ll let you know
however that first my mom’s current Honda has mud flap frames on the wheel wells to prevent mud
from being thrown up onto the vehicle and I’ll also say that we got the basic model when we
bought my mom’s Honda seven years ago knowing that we didn’t want a sunroof. The only deluxe
feature my dad paid for on the Honda was its Anti-Lock brakes. And just like you, I too would
rather not have a car that doesn’t have air conditioning.
I went back to the sites we looked at two days ago and took notes about all
that interests me. Now I took a lot of pages of
notes so I included them in this message’s second PS. If you don’t have time to read all my
notes right away just scroll down to the bottom and read the last couple paragraphs including
about which vehicles we’ll be looking at tomorrow. And if your internet is not working tomorrow
morning, don’t forget that as long as
Microsoft Outlook is the application in which you receive my messages
you can read them offline.
See you tomorrow at 1PM.
-Neil
P.S. Here are all of the websites you and I visited two days ago in the exact order that we visited them followed after links from the above message:
Wikipedia image: 2006 or 2007 Honda Accord
Wikipedia image: 2008 Volkswagen Jetta
Wikipedia image: Ferrari F40 [picture taken in Germany, don’t know what year model]
Wikipedia page: Neapolitan ice cream
• allancandy.com
• ReichmannHauer Capital Partners
• Honda Accord
• Ferrari
• Ferrari F40
• Chevrolet Cavalier (Wikipedia page)
• Chevrolet Cavalier (Official site)
• 2008 AVEO
• Buick (Wikipedia page)
• General Motors of Canada's Buick lineup of vehicles
• Mercury Milan (Wikipedia page)
• Mercuryvehicles.com - Milan - Home
PS2. Here are some of my notes from the websites that we visited:
• Ferrari F40:
It says
here
that this vehicle has a mid-engine, all of the vehicles we had all had front engines. My dad
said that mid-engines are mostly used in fancy sports cars, I think any vehicle with a
mid-engine might be another type of vehicle that I want to make it through my life without
riding in. And I’m not sure about this car’s interior shown in
this image,
it looks different and might not be comfortable though I’d need to see a better image of its
interior before I confirm this.
• Chevrolet Cavalier:
I didn’t know until we looked just a couple days ago that 2005 was its last year of production,
go to
their website
and see either the Cobalt or the AVEO. My friend, Mac, told me that the Cobalt uses Honda
engines because they’re not as expensive as Chevy’s own engines, and because they won’t use
their own products I think Chevy’s just too cheap.
Excerpt from here:
> ...The Cavalier is widely cited as the most successful of Chevrolet's long line of cars aimed
at
> combatting the influx of compact imported vehicles, starting with the Corvair, Vega, Monza
and
> the Chevette, with the Cavalier leading up to current Cobalt...
Never heard of such Chevy models like Vega, Monza and Chevette. And after we looked at the
above link (the page in Wikipedia), we then went to the
Official website.
I prefer the sedan to the hatchback, so that’s why we then clicked on the blue sedan on the left
where we then found this comparison between the AVEO LS and LT models:
|
Aveo2008 Sedan LS: Starts at $12,830*

|
Aveo2008 Sedan LT Starts at $14,580*
LT
Highlights:
• Chevy 100,000 mile/5-year transferable Powertrain Limited Warranty (whichever comes first) plus Roadside Assistance and Courtesy Transportation. See dealer for details.
• Standard seat-mounted side-impact air bags(1)
• NEW Tire Pressure Monitor
• Chrome door handles

• Deluxe Cloth fabric
• Cruise control
• Power Door Locks
• Remote Keyless Entry with content-theft-deterrent system
• 15-inch aluminum wheels
• Foglamps
• Heated, power, foldaway, body-color mirrors
|
• I wonder now if the Roadside Assistance is also available in Canada now that we know
“OnStar” might be available in Canada through “BCAA."
• I think I’d be more interested in having “Carpeted front and rear floor mats” rather than
having “Chrome door handles,” body-color door handles would be my preference assuming that
“body-color” means the door handles will be the same colour as the rest of the car’s exterior.
And my dad said that our current Honda has body-color door handles while his old Hillman out in
the workshop has chrome ones.
• I said when you were here two days ago that I thought my mom’s Honda has coaxial
speakers (which is what the LS model has) while the LT has a “CD/MP3 player” which I assume
means a CD player that has capability to play MP3 discs. Now I asked my dad about coaxial
speakers and he thinks that “coaxial” is just the “type” of speakers that are in the LS model,
he also thinks that almost any car should have the same capability that my mom’s Honda has which
would allow you to switch between the stereo speakers (IE have either just the front or
back speakers turned on while the other ones are turned off). This is all my dad knows about
“coaxial speakers,” he says that he doesn’t know a lot about speakers in general. He thought
that you might know more about coaxial speakers, so I told him that you didn’t seem to have
heard of them.
• I know that the backseat in my mom’s Honda can fold down, but does “60/40 split-folding rear
seat” mean like in my dad’s Subaru where you can choose to have only one rear seat folded down
at a time? In my mom’s Honda, the entire backseat has to be folded down at once. Either way, I
think it’s a good feature to have incase you ever need to carry extra cargo.
• Hmm, I wonder what the difference is between “Cloth fabric” and “Deluxe Cloth fabric.”
• The LS model lets you choose whether or not you want a woodgrain interior, I prefer not to
have woodgrain.
• The LT model has Cruise control, my mom’s Honda has that too and so did our 1986 Honda.
• The LT model also comes with Power Door Locks meaning that all four doors can be locked as
well as unlocked from the driver’s door, my mom’s Honda also has this capability.
• The LS model says that it comes with air conditioning while the LT one has “Remote Keyless
Entry with content-theft-deterrent system,” “Remote Keyless Entry” means that it comes with a
remote you can use to lock and unlock the car’s doors which is something that my mom’s Honda
does not have.
• The LS model says that it comes with a “Tilt steering column” which I assume is the type of
steering wheel you told me about that can tilt up and down.
Now click on the link at the bottom that says “Complete list of standard & optional
features.” And I wonder why we didn’t see this key at the top:
EXTERIOR:
> Glass tinted
Incase this means that all of the car’s windows are tinted instead of just the rear ones, I asked my dad if it’s a safe idea to have the front windows tinted. He said that you can tint the rear ones as dark as you want while you’re not allowed to tint the front ones any more than just a tiny little bit, maybe this means that the AVEO’s front windows are only tinted just a tiny little bit. And none of the windows on my mom’s Honda are currently tinted, even if we had just the back ones tinted I wouldn’t benefit because you know that I sit upfront most times when I’m riding in the car.
> Spoiler trunk-mounted
This one’s optional on both the LS and LT models, I always thought that a spoiler might be a neat thing to have sometime.
> Wiper rear, with washer
This feature is only available on the two models that I’m not interested in (the two
on the left), but I guess I shouldn’t be as concerned about this as I am about other things
hence my mom’s Honda does not have a wiper in the rear window. And my dad says that rear wipers
are mostly used on SUVs, station wagons, etc while not on most sedans because the sedan’s rear
window is sloped therefore allowing water to run off better when it rains.
INTERIOR:
> Air bags1 frontal
> Air bags1 seat-mounted, side-impact, driver and front passenger
It’s always a good idea to have air bags, both my mom’s Honda and my dad’s Subaru have these.
> Air conditioning with air-filtration system
Now here it says that both of the models I am interested in (the two on the right)
come with air-con.
> Ashtray and lighter
All four models come with this. Though none of us three (neither my parents or myself)
are smokers, a cigarette lighter is a good thing to have in the car incase you ever need to use
an inverter to power a TV, power a laptop, heat up a cup of soup, charge a cell phone’s battery,
etc.
> Console floor with storage compartment
I believe this would be what the type of thing in my mom’s Honda is called that’s between the
two front seats with an armrest on top that you can
open, lift up, and then you have a storage (cargo) compartment. And a few features
above this one (on the webpage) where it says “Armrest driver seat” for all four
models, does this also refer to the top of the console between both of the front seats? I know
that my mom’s Honda also has an armrest on the inside of both front doors.
> Cruise Control
Now I see that cruise control is optional on the LS model.
> Door locks rear, child security
Even though this feature is included on all four models, we don’t need to worry about whether
or not the rear doors have child locks seeing as how we don’t take any little kids in my parents’ cars.
> Door locks power
I see that Power Door Locks is also optional on the LS model.
> Floor covering full-floor carpet
I prefer carpet to any other type of interior flooring on all my vehicles.
> Floor mats carpeted, front and rear
My mom’s Honda has front and rear floor mats.
> Fuel-filler door release
Because I won’t be driving the car, this is one of the features that I don’t need to pay
attention to.
> LATCH (Lower Anchors and Top tethers for Children) system for child safety seats
If I am correct in assuming that this feature will only benefit me if I wanted to install a
baby’s carseat in the back of my vehicle, then we also don’t need to worry about this feature
just like we also don’t need to worry about whether or not the vehicle comes with child safety
locks.
> Map pockets driver and front passenger, seatback
My mom’s Honda has map pockets in both its driver and front passenger seatbacks, this would
be a good thing to have in the seatback of both seats.
> Safety belts three-point (all seating positions), height-adjustable front
pretensioners and load limiters
If these do mean the same thing as seatbelts, of course we’d want seatbelts. What kind of a
car doesn’t have seatbelts?
> Steering Wheel mounted audio controls
We never had a car before that had controls for the stereo on the steering wheel, looks like
this option is only available on the LT model.
> Sunglasses holder
This feature is included on all four models, my mom’s Honda has this and she puts her
sunglasses in it.
> Sunroof
You know that I’m not gunna worry about this one, this is only available on the
LT model.
> Tire Pressure Monitor
This sounds like a good feature to have if it automatically lets you know when one of your
tires starts to get low, this way you won’t have to keep getting out to check your tires.
> Theft-deterrent system engine immobilizer
I believe this is what my mom’s car has, an “immobilizer” meaning that my mom’s car can’t be
started without its key. It says
here
once you click on “INTERIOR” that it is not available on any of the four models even though it
says above that it is available on the LT model.
> Trunk Emergency Trunk Release Handle, glow-in-the-dark
Would this be what my mom’s Honda has where you can press a button/lever from the driver’s
control area to open the trunk?
> Warning tones headlamps, safety belts and key-in-ignition with door ajar
My mom’s Honda only has a “door ajar” on its driver’s door, do all four of these
models have the “door ajar” on all four doors?
AUDIO SYSTEMS:
> AM/FM stereo
I can’t believe that this is not available for the LT model, do you mean that all I can do is
play an external one through the car’s speakers while plugged into the cigarette lighter?
> MP3 player
I see that the MP3 disc capability is also an option for the LS model.
SEATING:
> Front buckets with recline, driver's seat armrest, tiltable head restraints and
convenience hooks
I prefer the front seats in my vehicle to be bucket seats.
> Rear seat 60/40 split-folding with height-adjustable head restraints for outboard
passengers
This would be the first vehicle I’d ever seen that has adjustable headrests in the backseat,
my mom’s current 2001 Honda doesn’t have adjustable headrests in the back seat and neither did
out 1986 Honda.
> Seat adjuster driver, manual height and lumbar
You told me that this is what the driver seat in your Camry has, we never had a vehicle
before that has this feature.
> Cloth fabric (LS)
> Deluxe Cloth fabric (LT)
I prefer either cloth or charcoal seating to leather, my cousin David use to have a 2002
Dodge Dakota pick up truck when he worked for Trinity Power before he started his own business. It had a black interior and charcoal seating, I sat inside his truck when he had it and I thought his charcoal seating felt nice and soft.
> Perforated Neutral leatherette seating
No thank you.
Now click on the button at the top that says “PHOTO GALLERY.” Here are my comments about the
car’s exterior and interior:
I’m not sure but it looks to me like the red sedan in the above image looks like the 2008
Honda Accord, I need to see more images of the AVEO four door sedan exterior before I confirm
this.
When I asked you on Monday, you thought that the front seats’ headrests could be adjusted
further back than what is shown in the above image just like what is shown in the image on the
left so that my head’s not leaning too far forward as shown in the image on the right:
LT model EXTERIOR:
The LT model comes in; Victory Red, Bright Blue, Summer Yellow, Spicy Orange, Cosmic Silver, Black, Sport Red, Summit White, Medium Gray, and Icelandic Blue.
• I don’t know whether it would be the “Cosmic Silver” or the “Medium Gray” that is closer to
the colour of my mom’s Honda.
• As for Summer Yellow, I don’t want a yellow car.
• Spicy Orange, no thank you.
• Eew, that “Summit White” looks like it’s an ugly colour.
• And you also had me try the “Icelandic Blue.” Looks like it might be okay, it does look better
than some of the ugly colours I gave you my thoughts about in the last few above points. And I
think that chrome door handles actually look good with this colour (Icelandic Blue).
LT model INTERIOR:
Looks like I prefer the black charcoal seating to the “Neutral” Deluxe Cloth.
• Buick:
Excerpt from here:
This article is about the brand of car. For the Scottish name, see Buick (name). For the
Sawyer
Brown album, see Buick (album).
I didn’t know until we looked up vehicles two days ago that Buick can also refer to a
person’s last name, and my last name “McRae” is also a Scottish name. I also never heard about
“Buick” being pronounced “bjuːɪk”
( with weird letters),
every time I heard that word on TV so far they’ve always pronounced it “Buick.”
Now this message is ten pages long, I will send you my comments about some of the other
vehicles this weekend. If I ever send you a message that is anymore than ten pages long, it
won’t be a book...it will be an
encyclopedia. And here are
some vehicles we could look up tomorrow including the ones that you thought we could look at:
• Mercury Sable
• Ford Taurus [reference to this model on Chevrolet Cavalier’s page in Wikipedia]
• Toyota Camry (current generation) [reference to this model on Chevrolet Cavalier’s page in
Wikipedia]
• Nissan Altima
• Honda Accord
See you tomorrow at 1PM.
