My Mom had a Pontiac Catalina when I first had memory. And my memory was :this is a huge car".

We called it the "kitty cat". She always threatened to put me in the trunk when I wouldn't shut up with my questions. LOL

But why? Why? Why? Why? That makes no sense, WHY!!! Then "do as I say, not as I do". 

I love my dog.

Remember the vans with carpet on the dashes

 

1973 Dodge Custom 70's Van Denny's Dynasty 500hp Beast | Custom van  interior, Vintage vans, Shag carpet

Hard to believe that was considered classy at one time, I remember going to the Van O rama  cars shows at the Vancouver Coliseum and there would be hundreds of equally classy vans with murals on the sides.

AK, LOL!! Yeah that's the one!  When siteunseen mentioned dropping a marble into the door of his moms car, it reminded me of the ball bearing demo they did on the XLE.

The best part is you can hear that ball rattling around in there like pachinko before it falls out the bottom. Hahaha!!!   ROFL

This is engineering for the inner-city driving experience.

In high school one of my good friends had an Oldsmobile VistaCruiser with a big block (455?) in it. That thing was a tank, but lots of top end if you had room to run. Remember burying the speedometer needle more than once with 5 or 6 (or 8 or 9?) of us punks in it. It is a wonder we all survived some of the stupid things we did back then.

It's a series of older comedy movies with the Griswold family. This has a huge station wagon "The Wagon Queen Family Truckster". That older guy is Chevy Chase, he's been in a lot of pretty funny movies. Caddyshack? Also had a talk show for one season. He sucked at that.
