Oh. Well, muscle car or no, RL's are beautiful cars. How do you like the all wheel drive?

A high end luxury sedan is something more to the efect of a BMW 7 series. Cars that start at $100 000.

I'm trying very hard not to threadjack here. See what I mean? i have trouble distinguishing the different eras of literary criticism as well, but you get me talking about cars and I can go all day...

EDIT - Also, I'll put up an anecdote I just thought of that sort of illustrates what I've been saying.

Shortly after I moved out on my own, I got ambitious and decided to try making a recipe dear old mum had sent me. I was doing alright following the directions until I got to the part where the recipe said to 'place under broiler for 7-10 minutes or until cheese melts.'

I called up mum and told her 'I can't make this, I don't own a broiler!'

Mother kindly refrained from laughing at me long enough to explain that broil is a setting on the stove and doesn't require some other cooking implement.

Should I have known that? Probably and I do now. It's common sense that the broiler is the top element in your stove, but I didn't know that; I hadn't done much cooking before and no one had taken the time to show that to me.
