Thought the original poster was talking about my car I just picked up, but I only paid $300 :icon_smile_big: Full of parts, bumpers, extra bumpers laying inside which were really nice, tail lights, was bucket seat center council car, has the pass seat, doors have power windows, (A pillars aren't rotten though). frame rails floors are gone.

Its called a console!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :icon_smile_angry:

Thanks for proof reading... Typo's on forum posts must really bug you? :pity:

Mistaking council for console, is not a typo! Its ignorance or lack of knowledge in using the right word for the job! If no-one pulls it up, the English language just sinks further and further, though I shouldn't expect too much from a people that think there's such a thing as aluminum... :brickwall:

On another note, I wish there were Chargers rotting away under trees over here, I'd take them even if they had a council in them!

Such a thing as "aluminum"? Not sure I understand but here is a thought...
I hear the English guy from "Wheeler Dearlers" pronounce it as Ahl-loo-minnie-umm. Americans took the English language and tweaked it a bit....We do not have an I between the N and U at the end of ALUMINUM. We also don't spell shop as shoppe as the British do or did.
Aside from that, I agree that people here are allowing the language to devolve. Urban slang, ghetto ebonics, Southern immigrants that don't care to learn English anyway...

Crazy prices though....YES, things have become really "out there". Some say that a price is only too high if nobody is willing to pay it. I'm not in agreement with that. If you are in a disaster and a store jacks the price of water and toilet paper, (Essential things we need!) what then? Just because the market can/will bear $20 for a case of water wouldn't you think that it is too much to pay?
Sure, many can afford that but it still sucks.

We still use a lot of the Queens English up here, north of the border:

color = colour
favorite = favourite
labor =  labour

Some areas still refer to the hood of a car as a bonnet as well.

Funny thing is, on my home computer, the actual English spellings on the right come up underlined red, as incorrect, lol.

That being said, we spell tires, not tyres..... would this be referred to as Creeping Americana? Hahaha
