Group of Ferraris invade handicapped parking spaces

This is a must-see in my opinion. When the owners were told to move out of the handicapped spaces a couple of them did cooperate, but one other owner acted like a brainless hooligan, who even acted rotten to the news crew. Watch the video in the news link to find out.

Here's another space-themed 1978 Ford Futura ad. Note the slightly higher price in this one.

Don't hate.
UP created this locomotive because the boy scouts are celebrating 100 years of their impact on the US. I know you're still gonna think it's baloney. :Tongue2:

Re: New UP Locomotive honors Boy Scouts of America

Now that you mentioned it, UP is treating this engine as a "Community Service Locomotive" according to their Commemorative locomotives page.

New UP Locomotive honors Boy Scouts of America

A new UP locomotive (likely a GEVO), represents the Boy Scouts of America. It has our current year (2010) as its engine number.

Re: old TV commercials

I found a lot of old TV ads on Youtube and I thought I'd like to post them on here, starting off with the very first 1986 Ford Taurus ad.

(Yes, the Taurus Sedan played a role in these 1986 ads also)

The 1992 Ford Taurus ad.

$1 million car in TX salt marsh

You think a rich guy would greatly handle the responsibility to taking great care of such a pricey luxury sports car. But as this owner shows, you'd be wrong.
