Question on leasing. I tried leasing a car a bit ago, and they had their “promotional lease deals” for “good credit” and such. My wife and I roll in with our 790+ FICO, and the lease “deal” was like $50/month above posted, once the dealer did their finger wagging over it. Plus, they couldn’t quote the lease price…

In this case, a Chevy Volt or Hyundai Kona makes a lot of sense. But so does a Crown Vic or a Buick wagon. Honestly, an old Ford Falcon with an i6 would be pretty neat and fun.

Oh. Kei.

It enters understeer readily

Might want to check your numbers there, those would be two wildly different track configurations. Namely, the Senna ran the combined “Grand Course” and the fastest lap in this year’s IMSA race was a 1:40 on the “Full Course”

Hello yes I would like to semantic.

They are just “Superspeedway Races” now and not “Plate Races.”

I’m with you on the chassis swap. Head south, find a mint body with a roasted motor/trans in a junkyard, and drop this powertrain under it. That’s an impossible amount of rust to repair, and as long as you document the whole thing, it won’t hurt the value when these inevitably actually become collectable.

For some reason I thought the current gen Rav4 Hybrid was a PHEV. Odd.

The problem is they have to be wide enough at the top for safe driver egress. which makes the top of it the same width as the cockpit. It can extend towards the nose, which is why it looks sweet from the side profile, but without it being fully enclosed I don’t think it will be able to be better from the front.

I really want to see them release the test videos of it. Not that I think there’s an issue with its strength, I just like to see videos of objects shot at high speed into things.

Man Reise, Reise was my go to album in early high school. Still solid.

When it happens at Bowman Gray, its a bunch of dumb rednecks committing vehicular assault. When it happens in the much more CULTURED Europe, it is sophisticated and adorable.

I actually was surprised the other night. I had some eggplant that I was making into eggplant parm based on Alton Brown’s new version that broils a layer of sauce in the pan for a bit. My wife and I tend to add stuff to sauce any time we make pasta so we just buy cheap pasta sauce as a base. Well I grabbed the jar of…

There isn’t data either way regarding the whole Loud Pipes Save Lives thing. The people that say that it works like their loud pipes and try to use it and a few anecdotes about their friend’s ex-husband’s cousin being not hit because he revved his engine once. Those that disagree have ears that they don’t like…

Its a shame literally everyone who has ever ridden one of these was killed immediately because of their lack of exhaust noise.

Its like the Cobalt SS N/A and the Malibu Maxx SS, but in Cadillac form a decade and a half later after they said they wouldn’t “water down the SS branding” anymore.

A refreshed and re-manufactured motor can be had for under $4000 and will bring this truck back to its former glory.

This is true, and why I really haven’t branched out from the Betty Crocker cookbook or things I see on TV.

This week was the first time I thought he’d been used well in quite some time. Assuming Gable goes over Corbin on Sunday, beating a stacked-against-him Shane and all-time-despised Corbin is going to be a great way to build up a fresh babyface.
