If I recall correctly, it gets really cold/snowy/wet in the fall and winter in the midwest and east coast

No, I meant that people in Arizona may be in love with their vehicles... because of the A/C in them.

I agree. I love my car because of its absolute zero inside temp when I got the AC cranked!

Do you think one stews in one's own juices on a bus, ZP?! We're not talking Colombia's countryside here! Have you ever been on a long-distance bus or train, btw? I'm guessing not.

As a colt, I was on AmTrak from Tucson to Los Angeles several times. I don't recall if there was air conditioning...

Also as a colt... once or twice... I was on Greyhound buslines, and I don't recall if there was air conditioning...

See... as a colt those thingies don't matter! I'm sure you didn't give a rat's patootie about the quality of your mattress, either!

and rain, snow and bitter cold would provide just as much, probably more incentive to be in love with a car.

either way this is getting off topic, no reason to argue about something stupid :-D

Nope, just a statement of fact. However, you did insult me, unintentionally, I presume. It is one of those things that over the decades I have found to be an penchant of many. I am not a 'Joe' and have never signed anything on the board that way.

You need to lighten up, joskel, if you plan on hanging out around here.
