"... integrity sold to the public on the wings of Steve McQueen's soul.

Yet we do embrace the Bullitt, without reservation and despite knowing that the car features little in the way of performance enhancements..."

Oooooooh boy! Tomorrow his mailbox will be filled with death threats.

Hey! That's a decent price, now if ya just slap some whitewalls on there, get the curb feelers bolted up and the little spinner ball on the steering wheel it'll be all ready for the snowbirds crowding the freeway going 35MPH!

Something tells me she'd rather be doing something other than writing articles about cars. And it's not because she didn't seem to like the car. She seemed unenthusiastic about writing itself. As if she was being bothered or something. I dunno...................

It seems like half the time if the reviewed car in question isn't being made by an import maker the automotive press has little to no interest.

I watch Motorweek on occasion and they're always salivating over a 22MPG 145 HP puddle jumper from Korea. It's sickening.

If they do a domestic they pick the highest optioned example they can find and talk all about the power seats and MP3 player. Or they get all excited about a GT500 or a viper. Not bad rides but hardly representative of domestic offerings.

Where's the V6 Mustangs that I know can get 30MPG easy and look good doing it! You don't see them. The deck is stacked against domestics in the automotive press, I'm sure of it...
