I can’t say I like it much. The front is...OK, not special or great, just OK, but that rear quarter...wow. Not good, ugly for ugly sake? And those awful wheels. WTF is with so many cars having awful looking wheels?

Yuck.

I had the opposite experience back in 2009. I was slammed by my mother’s medical expenses(Meds and incontinence, etc) and her credit card bills. I was on most of them, so I was on the hook too. They originally approved $125,000 to refinance the house, which would have allowed me to pay off the cards, do some needed…

Shit, it took over 3 decades of wrecks for the county/state (Lucas County, Ohio) to install a damn turn signal at an intersection. I’m proud to have been in the wreck that apparently pushed them over the edge, after 3 traffic studies, a fatal wreck once a year or so, and a monthly “big wreck” that got nothing done. I…

Mine are at least the midrange stereo. Even as deaf as I am in my right ear I can tell the difference between the base and upgraded systems. I had a rental Accord until a few days ago, and it had the middle stereo in it, and well, Honda should be ashamed. Almost, almost as bad as the system in my 2000 Sierra 1500.…

I know and have worked with people who have done pretty much the same thing. Put nothing down on a new car, pay a huge interest rate on a 6 or 7 year loan, and then have to either bust their ass to make extra payments to get the the car paid down so they can get it sold and paid off, or just make the extra payments…

The roller skate one. I saw a new white one being picked up yesterday, as I pass by the Buick/GMC dealership pretty much every day. I drove one of the roller skate ones a couple of years ago, and it scramed “Penalty Car” to me. I haven’t even sat in a new one. Maybe today at the car rental place? I want my damn car…

The recipe is pretty much identical to my grandmothers that she used to make her Soda Bread. It’s the only one I’ve really cared about almost 60 years later. I’ve had some big disappointments when someone claims, “It’s really great!”, and it turns out to be really sad.

Until recently, I would have said Altima, nothing came close, but you then mentioned the present day winner in my book, the little GM CUV’s, with the Buick Encore the clear leader of that bunch. They must have good deals on them, as I see young women with kids(Mostly) driving them all the time, but even my landlord…

I guess it’s the same delicate mouthed people who seem to have their mouth shredded by Cap’n Crunch cereal. I guess I have an “iron” roof as I’ve had no such problems with anything I’ve ever eaten.

Here’s a tirade trigger for you...

Me. I really hate the dark green like F8. We had a couple of “Avacado” green cars when I was growing up, and I just hated them with a passion. The last one was a ‘69 Caddy Sedan De Ville, which my dad was driving home from work when he passed out and drove it at about 60 into a pole, blowing a transformer that knocked…

My dog Joe’s breeder lived East of the Vegas airport back in the later 70's and when her husband got drunk, he would call the cops and complain about takeoffs when they used the runway that ended up at the south end of Las Vegas Blvd. They built that house in like ‘73, so they had to know that a shitload of planes…

Destroyer Gray, and whatever the similar colors by other makers are called, are the absolute worst colors ever on a car, only the fleshtone beige my crazy neighbor had on his Olds back in the ‘00's, and I had on a Mercury Zephyr in 1980 was worse. When I was car shopping, the dealer I bought it from had one Challenger…

Have at it! They blend into the sea of “four door sausages” that almost all cheap(er) four door mainstream cars have been over the last decade or so. 

Not really more of an Apple hater than car guy, but seriously, what could an Apple car really do, except cost more than it should, as all their stuff does? A guy who is gone now, he killed himself a while back, was looking forward to having self driving cars, mostly so he could game while going to work. I love…

He’s one of my “Oh hell no!” actors/comics. I don’t go to movies much, but he’s an avoid at all costs kind of guy if I do go. Me ex GF loves him for some reason. 

I know an Apple fanboi who would have been first in line for an Apple car as long as it was under $125K. I had my doubts that would happen, but he would have been a lock as a buyer if it did. He buys everything new Apple cranks out. Every iPhone, no matter if his present one has any problems or not, he’s buying one.…

I’m driving a newish Accord rental. I really hate it, I can’t wait to see it go away. It’s a higher level Penalty Car, IMHO. A PC is a car that I would just be wanting to see gone. My ‘99 Grand Cherokee was my PC. It killed my back like nothing had before or since. Most PC’s are cheaper than an Accord or GC.
