I, for one, think rpvitiello makes some decent points (especially in his earlier posts in this thread, before he got sidetracked talking about job interviews and such...).

H & L CHEVROLET INC

DARIEN , CT 06820 -5467

Distance 3.5 miles

THE KARL CHEVROLET COMPANY

Distance 7.0 miles

VAIL CHEVROLET, INC.
195 HALSTEAD AVE
HARRISON , NY 10528 -3618

Distance 10.8 miles

CHEVROLET/BUICK OF WILTON

WILTON , CT 06897 -4060

Distance 11.2 miles

MOUNT KISCO CHEVROLET CADILLAC HUMMER, INC.
175 N BEDFORD RD
MOUNT KISCO , NY 10549 -1513

Distance 14.9 miles

I'm not sure how you drive, but I'd guess those are somewhat less than an hour away. I could keep going; there were five pages of dealers with the farthest one about 25 miles from 06904.

And frankly, if someone with tattoos covering their face is concerned about arriving at an interview in a Taurus, they have other issues to worry about.

This was on the H&L Chevrolet website…

Also those distances are not road miles, they are if you drew a straight line. Also I live in a different zip code, I live in 06903. Also i used to work in Norwalk Right next to new Canaan/Darien and that drive can take well over an hour. Don’t forget traffic, it can take well over an hour to drive 10 miles here.

IF you are lucky and hit no traffic you may be able to make those times they listed in mapquest, but for the most part if you travel between 7-11am(morning rush), noon to 2pm(lunch rush) or 3:30-8:00pm(evening rush) or 10pm- 3am(night time construction/repairs) you will probably hit traffic (yes we are almost at perm gridlock a big issue we have here) Now if you are a working professional and you want to go look at a car say after work it makes things very hard. Now say your car needs service you would basically have to take a day of work just to bring the thing in.

As for concern about appearance, I agree anyone that shallow to not hire some based on there car is not someone you should work for. I have the same mindset with tattoos, anyone so shallow as to not hire you based on a tattoo is not someone you should work for. Correct or not those are both things people can judge you on.

I agree with you on the traffic part. It took me an hour to move 16.6 miles on 95n

Um, Excuse me? I don't appreciate your thoughts on the new Ford Focus. **** you and your thoughts.

Keep them to your damn self! The NEw Ford Focus rox.. and you... don't.

So. Quit talking **** on focuses, because.. you're just a **** talker.

Whoa there new guy.

Are you sure you want this to be your first post here?

If so, don't expect to last long around here. Especially if you're butt hurt about how Ford screwed the pooch on the '08 Focus. Most people here overwhelmingly do not like it.

**SilverSVT** · 08-14-2007, 03:20 PM

holy old thread from the dead

Wow...you gotsta calmate guey!

Besides...the others are right. Ford has taken a great car...and turned it into crap.

We are ALL entitled to our opinions...but you cannot go calling people out on FJ like that.

Welcome to FJ.

Hopefully you make it past your first couple posts.

Maybe the lead designer is posting incognito.

**chaz493** · 08-14-2007, 05:56 PM

yep, and after realizing he was the only person on the site that thinks the new focus looks good he took off before his true identity was discovered. DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!

Wow! 1 post and you've already made quite an impression.

Why don't you be a good little boy and bend over, cause your ass-kicking is about to commence.

Thanks for the new sig, btw. It's classic!

**Croc_Tease!** · 08-14-2007, 06:36 PM

Haha!

Well I saw another one in person recently. The interior is SO NICE. I really like the rear end as well and the overall shape (of the 2door coupe). The front bumper and headlights I'm not too fond of, but that can always be altered by paint and light body work.

**Queen Jade** · 08-14-2007, 06:48 PM

What is the difference between a POS GT Mustang and a Premium GT Mustang?

Oh wait, sorry...totally off topic.

While the new Focus isn't my cup of tea to say the least...Ford is only building cars to appeal to the masses. Unfortunately, we are not them...thats why we are special.

What bored FJ O.G. came up with this character.

c'mon we all know that's not for real.

Carloth would have to throw something in about Jon K, so it's not him...
