Came here to post that. Hey, only two more years.

I don't know that Radio Shack would have had much we could have fixed them with anyway. Besides, there's some hope that Autozone, O'Reilly, NAPA, et al. will have some of this...

See: late '90s/early-to-mid 2000s Ford gauges with their cold-solder joints. I love having to tap my odometer to see what the mileage is.

I'm not into boats, but this Renegade rocks!

No, but I do believe they're loving the side effect that we won't be able to repair our own cars anymore. We may not even be able to own our autonomous cars.

Despite the poor taste, that actually looks well done.

Nobody (read: I) would have a problem with importing it if it weren't for the region locking.

I love the marketing for this event (and really many things in Japan). Let's play a game of "Find the Japanese Person."

Booo. How could you get rid of that lovely burgundy fabric? Then again, I have enough trouble finding burgundy parts for my RX-7... :(

True, or at least that's the contemporary attitude toward it. I have a hard time relating to people using them as such, but that's because when/where I grew up, it was always different. Dad had the truck and Mom had the car (or vice versa). It was never a case of "we both need capable family haulers in case one of us…

喜連川研究所テストコース, or the Kitsuregawa Institute Test Course. Why? Because Jackie Chan, Mitsubishi Fusos, and I feel the need to be different.

I'm not impressed. Needs one exhaust tip per cylinder. Or two, if they really want to be trendsetters.

So, if they're Uber-owned cars with no drivers, how do they get around that pesky "Taxi" legislation?

In all fairness, I really dislike this trend, and yes I've been aware of it for some time. Honestly, if I'm traveling to work and get a flat, I don't have time to deal with roadside assistance or one of those silly inflator things. I can generally get the tire changed in a few short minutes (four lugs and a 2300lb.…

Sure, but I thought they also have to meet the footprint figures on a per-vehicle basis. In 2020 it's going to equate to 49 mpg CAFE and 36 mpg EPA.

No, but it is a top priority when meeting CAFE standards over the lifetime of the vehicle.

Looks a lot better without that fake black grille trim.

I was going to respond to how silly your notion was, but then I heard that weird music.

That's true. Those games prepared me well for my Japanese vacation. I don't think I ever got more than two or three blocks at a time without someone telling me I looked rich or bumped into them and should cover their medical expenses. Needless to say, I had to fight every one of those folks. I was very tired at the…
