Peter, If they made all cars look alike, it would be boring world. I almost didn't buy that car in the first place. I used to frequent a particular bar, and club, when I was in Houston, which was often, since our factory and homes, were only 75 miles away. One of the regulars, was sales manager for a Buick dealership, and after a "few" cocktails, I told him to get me one of those things, and after leaving, promptly forgot about it. I didn't go by that bar for over 2 months, but after flying from Denver to Houston, I decided to stop by, and the bar tender, who to my shame, knew me well, said that Bud had been looking for me for 6 weeks to come get that car. So I had to keep my word and went and got it.

It did get eyeballed in the small town were we lived though. All of those that had pick ups, with the rifle racks in the rear window, would look at it and just scratch their heads.

Being sober for so many years, I don't have experiences like that any more. 8^)
