Obama gave taxpayer money to:

The average professor has a Subaru Outback wagon and a Prius. That is all.

Didn't anyone from FOX see the empty grandstands at Concord on Saturday night? I don't think I'd be in a hurry to commit billions to a sport that is losing audience at such a dramatic rate. Personally, I like most of the drivers and much of the racing, but even I can't support NASCAR selling out to the ethanol lobby.…

I'm surprised any of these obese shopping trolleys can be leased when you look at the catastrophic depreciation. I figured the manufacturers were exporting most of the off-lease CUVs to places where being a gangster is a good thing. I pass a house that has three Cayennes in the driveway, including the latest and most…

I would argue that the E28 M5 didn't steal the 500E's thunder, since it had been out of production for 3 years when the 500E was released. I read a comparison test for midsized sedans recently where the 500E was bench-marked. Only the Sonata 2.0T wasn't quicker of the mainstream sedans with their high power engine…

Actually, everything I can find says that Colonel Joe Kittinger's third freefall during Project Excelsior lasted 4 minutes and 36 seconds. I'm not sure what happened to the other 6 seconds since.

She's got moray eel teeth.

I love the pictograms on Lincoln Town Car trunk releases. They basically tell trunk occupants to get out and run, perhaps assuming that they're headed for a swimming date with the fishes otherwise.

It was a Car and Driver interview actually, and Biden came off as a...well the same way he usually comes off. It will be hilarious if these imbeciles buy him a Trans Am and then learn that he thinks he's too good for one.

I won't miss the commentating team unless the next one is somehow worse, which would basically require them to recite Vogon Poetry all race. I am concerned that anyone looking to promote the sport to general audiences will package the races as two hour shows to be scheduled when everyone is home from church on Sunday.…

I just learned not to ask Thomas McIntyre for advice.

I wonder if it isn't a coincidence that these are Willy's Jeeps instead of AMC Jeeps. Maybe they had a couple decades of CJs and Wranglers that didn't stand up to hard work.

The Toyota ad isn't an insult to the audiences intelligence like the pathetic Chevy Volt vulgar ad. I can't be offended by this one when an appeal to imbeciles has already been placed.

I feel like I've already been weened off of speed. 'Dumbest Stuff on Wheels' is unwatchable. Varsha, Hobbs, and Matchett are MSNBC-quality commentators. Good riddance.

How long has the Volt been on the market? Nothing says green like buying a new car that has a more involved set of component parts than anything else on the street every year.

Not if you've ever had to ride in the back seat of a Volt. The Prius takes on a new beauty.

You said it! They stink on ice.

I don't know about WRC, but Audi had a brief moment in the sun in Group B. They were pretty much toast as soon as Peugeot and Lancia had AWD cars of their own. Did the AAN even figure in the 1984 season, Audi's last one with more than one WRC win?

I filled up last Tuesday for $55. That bought 12.5 gallons of 91 octane Shell at $4.399 a gallon. Today the same tank would cost $65 to fill. I haven't actually driven the car more than 15 miles since then, so my gas has appreciated almost $10.

GM won't get involved, says it is a dealer issue. People that still buy GM cars after all these years get what they deserve.
