These Go To Eleven
NIGEL: All the way up. You’re on ten on your guitar, where can you go from there? Where?
MARTY: I don’t know.
NIGEL: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
MARTY: Put it up to eleven.
NIGEL: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
MARTY: Why don’t you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
NIGEL: These go to eleven.Curious about the title of this blog? Here's a link to a video clip of one of my favorite scenes in "This Is Spinal Tap"

Hybrid Hype
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Imagine buying a hybrid Lexus for a base price of $104,900 without options.
Then imagine writing a review that says:
“The car performs beautifully, very quiet and compares to other luxury cars this saves me a lot money on gas.” [emphasis added]
Oh the irony.

We’re looking at buying a truck in a year or two. Hybrids did top our list until we started looking at used SUV and truck prices. Even with the gas prices going up it might still be more economical to buy a used gas guzzler. The irony? The truck would be used to haul stuff for our off-the-grid build!
I think they kinda missed the point…..
LOL!! If I could afford a $105,000 car, I don’t think I’d be too concerned with the cost of gas. Saving the planet? Maybe. Saving money on gas? Not an issue.
