Where we're going, we don't need pants.

I have no idea how to use this thing

Jeepless in Seattle 2: The Jeepening

They will be hocking them if they lose as much money on this merchandising plan as I suspect.

Might want to have your DNS server checked out. This isn't publiccitizen.org.

And which genius came up with the state law that it is illegal to coast down hill in the state of Kansas with the clutch pressed in?

Low costs and shitty roads mixed with high speeds and negligible enforcement = highways to hell (literally). That a state would "allow" you to drive like a maniac and kill yourself and others is not a reliable gauge of "good" states drive in. Just as using a bunch of reactionary yahoos is not a reliable resource…

No, it shows why it's so urgent for automakers to move in the JIT direction. These aren't JIT-produced cars. See any Porsches?

No, but at some point you have to call a lemon a lemon.

Exactly, the executives need to walk the fine line between eating their own dog food and paying attention to the competition. The correct answer would be "A Ford and a Lexus."

I'm guessing they appeared in an internal review of the 2011 Cobain.

What would be the problem near snow or a puddle? I wouldn't want these doors on a low-slung passenger car but they seem ideal for an SUV or minivan. A hell of a lot smarter than what Tesla is pitching on the Model X.

AF447 could hardly be blamed on the plane. That was 100% "human factors," from the bean counters at the airline who didn't update the hardware when they were supposed to, to the pilots who shouldn't have been allowed to run Microsoft Flight Simulator without adult supervision.

You have to be careful with the dash color options or you'll end up with a lot of annoying glare on the windshield. I don't know if red is a problem or not, but you can't go wrong with black.

If it were as simple as "ordering a manual box" and duct-taping it into the powertrain, you might have a point.

Mustang Ranchero

Sounds like we'll need to agree to disagree on some of these topics. I'm wondering if there was something wrong with the PDK in the 991 you drove, but that's speculation on my part. About the only thing that can be concluded with certainty is that you're not the target market for Porsche. Best of luck finding the…

Not everything is a matter of opinion.

Buying a car these days involves a lot of trust. It's not as if you can easily get in there with a wrench and tweak it to your satisfaction. You have to have some degree of faith that the engineers and bean counters were able to find a compromise that will work for you. In the 911's case, they evidently decided…

From experience (owning one), this is completely wrong. PDK feels just like an ordinary slushbox during low-speed maneuvers.
