Positive comments on CNN about the

Car/Company that everyone these days seems to hate...

I will start off with the good part first:
One of my co-workers who happens to know that I am pro-nissan said that he saw and heard something positive about "the nissan 2K3" on CNN.

The bad part:
He is not very educated on Nissan products therefore could not inform me of which one of Nissan's many cars was mentioned Max or

Did anyone happen catch our moment in spotlight?

What would Jesus drive? A Christler, of course.

I think the Bible says "they came together in one Accord.

p.s. I heard these on CNN last night.

I hope not as well; he did mention that is was one of the best buys for 03' or something to that effect.

That's CNN for you; anyways if no one has a copy of the segment then don't worry about it...just nice to see/hear good news every now and then.

I thought that was only a myth; but if in this day and age the local news can "some" study to show that the falacy is of actual truth then that would be astronomical in my eyes and would sway my next purchase from "nissan dealers" (Can you see if your daddy has a linky to the article, that would help me make a better informed decision on this matter).

In reply to the "racist" comment...

The media are a bunch of ****ing morons...With the wonders of editing and selective interviewing they can make Michael Jackson look like the Pope and Mother Theresa like the devil...

I'm all for this WWJD stuff. Enviromental and religious groups are attacking SUV's for their terrible gas mileage. There is an article on msn.com about it today. I'm down wiith anything that makes SUV's less powerful or gets them off of the road. Park your max nose to nose with an excursion and picture a head-on collision. (We lose, badly)

I'm pretty amazed to see the "Christian Right" on the same page with the "Environmentalist Left" on ANY issue. (As a Born Again, I'll pray for those of you making sacrilegious comments.)

Anyhow, IF Jesus did drive, he'd probably drive something like a 1976 Ford Pinto out of humbleness.

Jamus, I totally agree!!

If you truly cared, you would get your a$$ out of the Max too, since if you went nose to nose with a pedestrian "picture a head-on collision".

If you want to make a difference walk or drive electric.

Jesus with a Cowboy hat ....

I'm born again also, but we in the western culture have hi-jacked a Jewish faith, and now prettend to be the authors for the rest on the world.

What does this have to do with SUV's, Maxima's ... nothing just a rant, but what diff does it make.

1. WWJD? Answer: Sentra, everyone knows that's the Jesus charriot.

2. In regard to the study about Nissan and racisim:

The study found that minorities were paying more for their Nissan's than whites. The idiots conducting the "study" concluded that Nissan overcharges minorities.

Staying in the middle ground is difference enough. Why go from one extreme to the other? That's retarded.

Also, I don't normally do this, but...

jjs, is ignorantstupida$$ your middle name or what? Please keep those kinds comments to yourself. (Bible pounding moron? WTF?!) Who do you think you are? BTW, word of advice... you're posting way too much for someone who drives a stock car.

3 words.

Get A LIFE!

Actually the taliban really drives the Nissan Extera's , seriously. When the U.S. was bombing in Afghanistan they showed the taliban in their Extera's which is there version of our tank.

Everybody knows that Jesus lived around the desert, so he probably needed something rugged and able to trek through the sand. So he probably would have had an suv, but being humble maybe an old jeep. How I wouldn't love to point that little fact out to them. Can you imagine the Son of God stuck in the desert with his tires spinning in the sand.
