I agree totally with you. And throw Fowler in there as well, Bozo's. I'm getting mine at Hudiburg. I talked with them and they had 3 coming in at MSRP. I picked one, put a deposit on it. I just got the VIN # and it should be here this week. They even said they would hold it till Jan 2nd for me. So far I have no complaints with Hudiburg, although they only recently quit adding the market adjustment garbage.

Hey Rancid13,

I hate loud and crowded movie theaters. I love a movie theater where you can really get deep into the movies artistic creation.

I also never got a ticket in El Segundo. I learned some tricks from my LAPD friend on how to avoid traffic stops.  Below are some easy pointers on avoiding being pulled over.

Learned LAPD pulls any car over which may be old and dirty, have moon rims, spinner wheels, Power 106 and 100.3 the beat bumper stickers, any Mexican radio station sticker or flag, purple peeling tint on the windows, DMV number permit on the rear window, tweety sticker and lowered car....You get the idea.

If your car is Ghetto you will be pulled over.

Have you ever been to the Orange County Prius Club, Since you live close to the Orange Curtain. I've gone twice.

LOL, NONE of those descriptions fit my current car, a 1996 Saturn SC2. SO not ghetto! I may have ~6 bumper stickers/decals (bands) but that's it. I'm only as Mexican as my heritage (1/2) but don't look it or act it. My car is sometimes dirty, but gets a good washing once a week, I hate spinning rims, I hate 105.9 and 100.3, can't stand the ranchero music, have no tint on any windows, no DMV permit in window, no Tweety, no lowered car. I'm a good driver, adhere to all posted speed limits, traffic signals, stop signs, etc.

I've never been to an OC Prius Club...where is it? I don't feel I qualify yet, as I'm still a waiter. Should have my Prius sometime in January. Very very soon.

What color? Mine was black. 1996 SC2 Coupe, Anniversary LTD ed. with tan leather interior.

Yet another former Saturn owner switching to Prius.

I wonder what the percentage is? Seems higher than normal odds.

Black gold. Tan cloth interior. Dunno which edition, I bought it in Dec '96 after the first owner (only 4,000 miles on it) passed away and gifted it to a niece who had no need for it. I had just totalled another 1996 SC2 (green w/tan cloth interior)-not my fault, btw, about the collision- which I purchased used in June 1996 at Saturn of Huntington Beach. Nice replacement- several more 'options' if you can call them that (cruise control, power windows, power door locks).

And I should mention, 177,540 and going strong. Need a newer car that's more family friendly with low emissions, better mpgs, that's all. Can't fit much in the backseat of an SC2.

Yeah, there do seem to be a lot of former Saturn owners on PC, I posted a thread about it a few weeks ago. Lots of converts.

Those are good rules for anywhere... To make thier job easier and increase the percentages of profitable pull overs... they definatly profile whether concious or not.

My first car was a 64 Olds cutlass... 60's on the back airshocks had the rear jacked... rabbit fur in the back window "the vinyl was cracked otherwise underneath".
I got pulled over "alot"!
As soon as I sold my car and got a Plymonth grand fury... big brown tank of which I also kept clean like a shiny penny.. I "never" got pulled over!
