GM, the UAW, and, now, the US Government, making cars together.
Oh, the mind reels at the engineering wonders we are about to see.
Brings to mind the Soviet's big success, the Lada.
From this:
To this, the Lada "Sputnik":

Maybe the great Mexican-American-French-Afro-Jew auto designer, Mr. Juanito Jimenez, might suggest the name of the Americanized version of the Commie "Lada" and help them market it as the "Laydo"? You know what I mean, right? _________________ Please check us out on Instagram at @holygrailgarage

50 Cent Sues Taco Bell
'Many customers believed that 50 Cent had agreed to endorse Taco Bell's products,' lawsuit alleges.
By Shaheem Reid
50 Cent has a great sense of humor — just listen to the ad libs on his dis records. But when it comes to other people trying to profit from his name, he's not laughing. The rapper sued Taco Bell on Wednesday (July 23) for making him an unauthorized spokesman for the chain in a recent ad campaign, Reuters reports.
The news organization obtained the legal papers, filed in Manhattan federal court, in which 50 and his lawyers allege that the restaurant chain engaged in some unjust promotion. Taco Bell released a letter addressed to 50 in which the company suggested he change his name for a day to "79 Cent," "89 Cent" or "99 Cent," which are the prices of certain items on Taco Bell's menu.
"We know that you adopted the name 50 Cent years ago as a metaphor for change. We at Taco Bell are also huge advocates for change. We encourage you to 'Think Outside the Bun' and hope you accept our offer."
Fif wasn't feeling that at all.
"They crazy, man," 50 told radio personality Angie Martinez in June. "They sent a memo out. I don't wanna talk about it. We gonna take legal action. ... I guess they did that for promotional purposes. It's not good that they did that. They didn't have to do that.
"It gets uncomfortable at some point," he added about people trying to capitalize off his fame. "Especially when corporations do it to you. ... Like you gonna go to the store and beef with the kid at the counter."
According to Reuters, the lawsuit alleges that "many customers believed that 50 Cent had agreed to endorse Taco Bell's products. Indeed, postings on numerous Internet 'blogs' castigated 50 Cent for 'selling out' by his apparent endorsement of Taco Bell. _________________ Founder and Chairman Emeritus, ECMSAS

Hey Keith, is that 17 mile drive right near Asilomar? I used to surf there years ago and another little reef right that was a short distance away from there. It was really rocky and sharky and sketchy as all hell...

Sorry Ben, no lying going on here. Verstehen Sie Mich! What happened is the judges put 51, rather 53. mon ami, LeH-Ohn, did the right thing. The number 1 in the US does look different to the number 1 in Europe. I had no idea the bus placed 3rd. It has won numerous shows, without even trying. Most of the times it wins for oldest bus, and car too. This is because, as they say in France, it has a certain Je ne sais pas? Oui. Another worthy note is The Duke of Delft drove it. So royalty has driven the bus as well.
And for all you pinche haters on my country......... VIVE LA FRANCE Culeros!!!!
