Just heard on the news that two trains collided southwest of KC and one of them that they showed video of was car haulers that were on fire. The news did state that they had cars on them, of course they didn't say what kind.

Please let them be GTO's!!


A question we thought of was who would be responsible for the cars, the automaker, the dealership or the train company???

But wouldn't it stink to be put back at the end of the list because of something like this!!!!

Just think of all the people that were awaiting delivery of their new Volvo XC 90 SUV's when the boat they were making the trip in sunk in the English Channel!!!

Volvo's sink!

I think they'll throw some extra Aztec's in the fire. Seemed that ancient mummie drivers aren't a reliable customer-basis.

You wouldn't be put at the end of the line, it would most likely be processed as a special order and you would get one of the magical priority numbers less than 10.

Would still be a major disappointment though depending on how long you had already waited. I think it would push me over the edge and I would prolly do a walk-in buy. I would deffinately feel like I was the statue about then!

It would be a major disappointment. To have to wait three more months or longer. I think I would give in and buy off the lot. Not having a car for the last 3 months has been a nightmare!!!

The clip they showed on the news last night was a poor little civic that was partially burnt with wrapping still on it. I'm assuming that more of the cars were Hondas too. At least it will never grow up to be "fast and furious"...

Looks like it had a few Kansas Citians worried.

Might as well go and add some SSRs in there as well since GM can't seem to get rid of those either
