And it wasn't even equipped by G. E.

Reminds me of the day we were having trouble in east Berlin with a  
rental Ford that really had other intentions than running.   Getting  
that car to work was sort of like asking your teenager to do his  
homework.  I was trying to get it to start when a native came up,  
looked at this modern machine and quipped, "Es ist kaput and es ist  
nicht nur ein Traubi!"




























(It's broken and it isn't even a Trabant.)
