I ran across this website today and they have several things about the Bonneville. I thought I'd share with you guys. You should check it out.

I must say that article was written by a high school dropout. The grammatical and spelling errors alone tell me that's a very amateur article, and has very little information.

Not slamming you for liking it, I'm just pointing out there's some issues with whoever wrote it.

Wow. Every site like that (Edmund's, Car and Driver, etc) has a review on the Bonneville. It's nothing uncommon.

That's why I found this interesting willren and wjcollier. It wasn't really what I expected. When I saw it, I thought "Hmm...I wonder what the club members will think of this."

To 00Beast: I know it's nothing uncommon but I just found that article thing unusual.

It's TERRIBLE.

WHOIS lookup says it's been up for a few years, so that says to me it's not for a class or school project...

Not to brag but I could write better than that. I'm wanting to be a professional writer and I'm sure I could write that a whole lot better with a little creativity.
