Acura x 2

They'd given up on American cars by the time I started driving and were converted 100% to Honda/Acura shortly thereafter.

Who made Granadas?
My family had a 1979 Cadillac Coupe Deville.... The brakes just went out on it when I was seven. Can you imagine that? The pedal just went to the floor. We had to pull to the side of the road and scarpe the median to stop. We never got an American car after that. Traded in for an '87 Acura Legend Audi 6000 turbo. That car was a disaster one after another... The turbo went out countless and Dick Horrigan Audi/VW (Yes I mentioned his name) coundn't fix anything for anything. Thr horn was hosed from Day one. Lemon laws didn't apply because it was a differen tproblem each time. Never bought an Audi after that. My dad traded it in for A '90 Acura Legend. Now we're on a Mercedes ML320. Had only one peoblem covered by warranty and the dealer was great. They actually drove to my dad's office, left him a CLK 230, and drove the ML back to the dealer. That little 230 could haul some serious... buttocks. So far no other problems with the ML. But if anything major happens, that'l take care of European cars for my dad.
We're thinking of trading in the Thunderbird for an X5. I think we should keep the Bird for a beater. Ever have to go to airport long term parking? What kind of idiot would steal a thunderbird?
