Last name Becker.... not sure about that one. Better look it up.

My last name is private.

However it is German and means slice, such as a slice of bread or a sheet of glass, it's a thin portion of whatever one would use the word slice in english. It is also used for half of a pulley. Or so I have been told by German folk.

Very interesting! I'm going to look up my last name PLUS my maiden name. They would be great to know.

Sorry if this is off topic for a moment...but, the R/T is AWD and the HP is about the same, stock, that is. The difference to me was the Caliber's CVT vs. Subie's auto transmission and their take off. I had a problem getting used to the CVT lag at the take off. The auto doesn't respond as quick as the manual but, it is much faster than the CVT, IMO. The interesting thing is I am also getting better gas mileage than our Caliber. Similar size engine, different maker.

I still love the ride, styling and comfort of our Caliber, though. The leather is comfy and the premium stereo just blows you away. My last car was an RX-8 and it had a Bose stereo that didn't sound as good, IMO. Never really liked Bose, you know? No highs, no lows, it must be Bose. Our Caliber also has a lot of roominess to the feel and looks like a mini-Magnum to me.

Nagungo is a nickname one of my friends gave me when we were younger. The name is derived from the cartoon show The Simpsons, "You are Nagungo now." Thats how all Nicknames are pretty much given eh... So thats why I registered under this Screenname.

Still like the Caliber but it just wasn't me... Our Caliber is a fully loaded R/T with just about everything but the Bluetooth and...not sure what else it doesn't have.
