A box on wheels with a roof you can put crappy graphics on makes it cool? Uh, yah. The mini-cooper doesn't need a white roof to be cool. Someone at Ford apparently made the white roof association. As Geroge Carlin would say, "it's bullshit! and it's bad for ya."]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tuna]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 19th 2008 8:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on New York 2008: Ford flexes its creative side with cool lids]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/19/new-york-2008-ford-flexes-its-creative-side-with-cool-lids/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/19/new-york-2008-ford-flexes-its-creative-side-with-cool-lids/</guid><description><![CDATA[There's nothing creative about a stretched Scion.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 19th 2008 8:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on New York 2008: Ford flexes its creative side with cool lids]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/19/new-york-2008-ford-flexes-its-creative-side-with-cool-lids/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/19/new-york-2008-ford-flexes-its-creative-side-with-cool-lids/</guid><description><![CDATA[They did this at the Chicago Auto show a while back.

It is not exactly new for a family vehicle to take a styling and promotion hook from a younger persons' car.<br>And ANYTHING that makes a decent American vehicle get some good publicity is good, in the face of a lousy recent past, and some current poor models.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BOB]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 20th 2008 2:39PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
