You nailed it my friend! I grew up near Division and da Kennady Freeway in da 50's.

Let me add a few....

Caddy - A Cadillac automobile produced by GM.

Riv - A Riviera automobile produced by Buick.

Stang - A Mustang automobile produced by Ford Motor Company.

Thunder Chicken - A tricky one depending on what side of town you lived on. A Thunder Chicken could be a Thunderbird or also a Firebird TransAm wit da big fricken' decal on da hood.

Let's put it all together now,

Hey Nick! How are you doing?

I'm doing. Whazzaboutyu?

Hey, Me? I'm doing. You know, OK?

Lez us go out an get us a 'Talian Ice or sumtin' Huh?

Wat car we goin' da drive? My old lady got da Riv an da Caddy is in da shop.

Let's take my kid's Thunder Chicken. Dat's 'cause he cracked up my Stang last week.

Ok! I got shotgun! (the passenger seat)
