Since you mentioned it...

Why, I oughta! I guess I'm the first 3rd gen'er to read this. Just kidding.
At least she's not pretentious like most "supermodels." Yea, nice move with the cell phone. Most people can't drive when that's the only thing they're trying to do in the car.

Well the car was built in 92... safety standards have been raised quite a bit since then. I think only enthusiast will notice it was a maxima.

Yeh I was pretty interested in the seat belt discussion I read about the accident.... I guess I didn't realize the 3d gens had the automatic shoulder belt. Those things suck because some (stupid mostly) people do not also fasten the lap belt.

I, for one, am not convinced of this, but I don't want to digress to much.. it's a real bad thing. That family has had a lot of tragedy already, I hope they don't lose her too.
