It's an image, so sorta :P
Don't know if it will show up properly though as wide images ALWAYS get cut off to the right for me on MCO forums (not with others). Never figured out how to fix that.

Try ctrl+ and ctrl- to change the zoom. I'm using Chrome and that works.

Thank you good sir! It even works with Macs (using the command key of course) :)

Well first off, blasphemy in a public ad ain't exactly good form. :nono: And secondly, I had an early not-so-Grand-Am a few years back (I can't remember the year), and even if it hadn't been wrong wheel drive it would still have been a pile of crap, but I don't think that it was the only factor in GM's fail. :roll: From the mid '70s on most GM products were junk, except for the trucks. I've had GM trucks since the early '80s and I could never understand why GM made good trucks but crappy cars. :loco:
