A Mentally Incapacitated, Young, Radical Male Who Is Not Only A Supporter Of The Evil Donald Trump And His Equally Maleficent MAGA Movement; But Also Had To Have His Guns And Rifles Covered With Cerakote, Had Murdered A Teacher For The Type Of (Private) School That Colin And Sheila Would Send Their Three Sons To If They Ever Resided In The San Diego Area In California; Who Was Not Only Athletic, But Also Suffered From Androgenic Alopecia; After This Young, Radical Male’s Ex-Girlfriend, A Teacher At This Private School; Had Left This Young, Radical Male, And Became Engaged To This Male That He Had Murdered (Also A Teacher And A Sports Coach At This Private School), Had Neglected A Mark 7 Volkswagen Golf In The Process Of Going To Carry Out This Execution; And Became A Ponytail And Man Bun Guy While Incarcerated And Awaiting Trial.
I would have sentenced this young, radical male to the Death Penalty; and to sit on Death Row at the San Quentin State Prison in California.
This murdered Teacher’s younger sister, herself; is also a young, radical person.

I, The Owner Of This Very Blog; Don’t Have Any Tolerance For Newfangled Ride-Sharing Services Such As Uber And Lift; And I Especially Don’t Have Any Tolerance For Anyone Using A Chevrolet Bolt BEV, Any Generation Of The Volkswagen Polo And Golf, The B299/B409 Ford Fiesta, And The C346 And C519 Ford Focus For Ride Sharing And/Or Food Delivery Services.
I, personally wish that my favorite Television Station and Newscast in the Detroit Market; WXYZ-TV, and not WDIV-TV (nee WWJ-TV) had covered this News Story.

Two generations of Volkswagen Jetta/Bora, the Mark IV (A4), and the Mark V (A5) parked next to each other on Oak Bluffs, Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, United States of America.
If you’ve been following this Blog for a while, you know that the earlier Mark II (A2) and the Mark III (A3) generations and bodystyles of Golf/Jetta/GTI are my favorite generations of Volkswagen’s A-Platform Cars.

Owning a GM B-platform Station Wagon, a Suburban, and a Volkswagen/Audi during the early 1990’s was, and still is more important than the sporting events that took place at this time that had been filmed in the videos below.
Furthermore, the person that had taken these videos on a VHS-C Video Camera, and had later digitized them; a so-called “superfan” of the game of Baseball; and a well-regarded Baseball catcher by the name of Zack Hample, needs to comprehend that the automotive world as a whole, the world of amateur/ham radio, and the engineering side of commercial radio and television are all more important than the world of sports and fitness.
And, Zack Hample should be barred from having a Buzzcut haircut; and shaving his head with a razor and shaving cream.

I find it to be cockeyed that the vehicle created by the evil Iacocca to copy Volkswagen-a Plymouth Reliant or Dodge Aires to be placed into a junkyard next to an example of my personal favorite minivan that Lee Iacocca and Hal Sperlich had copied when developing the K-car Chrysler minivan-the T3 Transporter/Vanagon.
I would have rather that the vast majority of the American public bought Volkswagens/Audis than their K-Car imitations, such as people buying a Sirocco/Corrado instead of a Dodge Daytona/Chrysler Laser, a Golf or a Rabbit pickup instead of the Simca-influenced Omni/Horizon, Rampage car-based Pickup Truck, and a Sundance/Shadow; a Jetta instead of a Reliant/Aires and an Acclaim/Spirit, an A1 Golf/Rabbbit-based Cabriolet instead of a K-Car LeBaron Convertible, an Audi Coupe instead of a LeBaron coupe, a B2 Volkswagen Passat/Quantum, a B3 Passat, or an Audi 80/90/4000 instead of a K-car Dodge 600/Plymouth Caravelle/Chrysler E-Class, Dodge Dynasty, and Chrysler New Yorker; an Audi 100/200/5000 instead of a K-Car Fifth Avenue and Imperial, and of course-a T3 Vanagon or a T4 EuroVan instead of Chrysler’s paltry minivans.
I do not appreciate the person writing to the evil Iacocca as stated in the letter below stating that she has been praying to god over the well-being of the Chrysler Corporation. I would rather that this person had instead prayed for the well-being of Volkswagen of America, the well-being of the sales of the French automakers Renault, Peugeot, and Citroen in the United States; the well-being of conventional frame-on-body Full-Size American cars on the GM B and Ford Panther platforms, the well-being of the Full-Size Vans produced by each of the Detroit 3 automakers; and the well-being of traditional 2-door Full-Size Utility Vehicles being the K5 Blazer/2-door Tahoe, Ford Bronco, and the Dodge Ramcharger/Plymouth TrailDuster; and last-the well-being of the Chevrolet/GMC Suburban.
Little do the Evil Iacocca, and Hal Sperlich both know that I could design and engineer that would be many more times better engineered than their paltry minivans, and would be built like both a Truck and a European Car. And little do the people who were a part of General Motors management and Board of Directors during the 1980’s and 1990’s comprehend that I could design and engineer a minivan that would be many more times better than their paltry Chevrolet Lumina APV/Venture/Uplander, Pontiac Trans Sport/Montana, Oldsmobile Silhouette, Buick Terraza, and Saturn Relay minivans; and also their paltry Pontiac Aztek and Buick Rendezvous Crossover Utility Vehicles; but equally good as or even better than the Chevrolet Astro/GMC Safari.
That minivan is my idea for a minivan based off the Subaru Legacy/Outback that would highly target the Nissan Elgrand, Toyota Alphard, Volkswagen Transporter, Renault Trafic, and the Mercedes-Benz Vito/Viano/V-Class/Metris; would be styled by one of the major Italian automotive design firms such as Italdesign Giugiaro or Bertone; and would be as overengineered as Mercedes Passenger Cars once were prior to the late 1990’s.
For more information on my Subaru Legacy/Outback-based van project, please see this earlier post about how I would personally run General Motors:
An Opel/Holden/Vauxhall/Subaru Van On The Legacy/Outback Platform
The evil Iacocca was also responsible for the equally paltry Ford Pinto during his long tenure with the Ford Motor Company, prior to him being fired by the Ford Motor Company. Not too long after his firing from the Ford Motor Company was when he was hired by the Chrysler Corporation when Chrysler needed a new Chairman after the short tenure of John Riccardo as the Chairman of Chrysler, after Riccardo, in turn; had served as the right-hand man during Lynn Townsend’s long tenure as the chairman of the Chrysler Corporation.

The author of this article couldn’t have said it any better-the K-Car platform consists of some of the many cars ever inflicted upon humanity.
Ditto with the author of this article, and I have to add that the same goes for Ford’s CE14 and D186 platforms, and General Motors’ J, N, Front Wheel Drive H, U, Front Wheel Drive A and its successive W platforms.
Lee Iacocca had wrongfully copied Volkswagen with every K-Car variant ever produced, and Lee Iacocca had also wrongfully copied the T3 Volkswagen Transporter/Vanagon with Chrysler’s own minivans.
For instance, Lee Iacocca haw wrongfully copied the Golf/Jetta/GTI with the Plymouth Reliant/Dodge Aires and their successors-the Plymouth Acclaim/Dodge Spirit, and also with the Plymouth Sundance/Dodge Shadow; had wrongfully copied the Sirocco/Corrado with the Dodge Daytona/Chrysler Laser, had wrongfully copied the 1980’s and early 1990’s Audi 2-door coupe models with the 1986-1995 Chrysler LeBaron 2-door
Coupe and Convertible; and had also wrongfully copied the Audi B3 and C3 platforms with the Dodge Dynasty, Chrysler New Yorker; and early 1990’s Chrysler New Yorker Landau and Fifth-Avenue.It’s only fitting that this crummy, horrible K-Car be given a proper send off by competing in the so-called “LeMons” race.
