It had one of those massive box air conditioners, jammed into a pre-cut square in the south wall. Alanna hated it and would only let me turn it on at night. I still resent her for that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just when we thought it was safe to go back to Detroit, after the hard lessons carmakers learned in the Great Contraction, along comes the Buick Enclave. I don’t mean to suggest that it’s a new car — the Enclave debuted as a 2008 model, which explains a lot — but that it already needs a pavement-up makeover.<br>The good news, early in ‘08, just before Capitalism collapsed, was that the Enclave was a modern unit-body, three-row, front-wheel/all-wheel-drive crossover vehicle that managed its [...]]]></description>

Then in 1958, Lincoln came out with a massive piece of monstrosity that to this day I think was the biggest Lincoln to date.  What happened in 1958?  Chuck L., Evanston, Ill.<br>A: Chuck, the year 1958 was one of those years that the stylists went crazy with “big.” Regardless of model, from Buick to Chrysler to Ford, manufacturers flooded [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To gaze upon Hyundai’s shapely Azera is to realize how few cars today are truly pretty. In a market that values fuel economy, luxury, green-ness, low lease payments or whatever, “pretty” evidently doesn’t cut it any longer. Even Ferraris look a bit grotesque these days. The Azera, though — that’s pretty. No gaping grille, no swollen goiters, no painful angles; it is thoroughly harmonious.<br>But, as mother used to warn us, pretty is as pretty does. As it happens, though, the Azera does quite [...]]]></description>

However, I totally disagree with your recommendation, and here’s why.<br>You are right the car will never be worth what a Cyclone with a 428 Cobra Jet engine. But that is not to say his Mercury is worthless. Although they will never bring an equal price as the muscle car, family sedan prices go up.

		<description><![CDATA[Everything old is new again. Fortunately, with a few exceptions, “new” invariably beats “old,” at least in automobiles. Ford’s revival of the SHO variant of its Taurus sedan is a case in point. When the original SHOwed up, way, way back in MCMLXXXIX, it had front-wheel drive, a 5-speed manual gearbox and a V-6 rated for 220 horsepower—enough to motivate a 3,300-pound car relatively well. Over the next 10 years the SHO was updated twice, but it never got beyond 235 horsepower.<br>SHO stands for [...]]]></description>
