If the Bolt is indicative of the electric future. Want. So smooth. Quiet. Competent. Normal. Fun. Yeah. They interior is plastic. But it’s not playschool plastic. Its functional, well grained and attractive. However, price is a bitch. Early adopters, do your thing. I want one cheap. Potato pics because dark and…

Over the last 10 years, I haven’t had a car that wasn’t in warranty. I haven’t replaced a single tire, paid for a single oil change, etc. I was trading my car at least once a year to keep me in the latest thing, in warranty and my mind at ease. However, that all changed last week when I bought this:

A couple weeks ago, before I traded the Equinox for the Acadia, I camped in it. A friend of mine bought mountain land here in NC and there’s no house. Or bathroom. But besides that, it’s beautiful. I am no camper. Never have been. But sleeping in my car wasn’t bad at all. Except for I wanted more space and fresh air.…

Been a while since I’ve posted. Work crazy. Life insane. But it’s all good. Ish. Mostly.

I stopped by a local Mistubishi dealership last night. Yes, unlike unicorns, they do exist. I have seen no published reviews of the unfortunately named Eclipse Cross, so I decided to have a look. I had high hopes. Higher than I should have. It wasn’t bad. However, may be over priced for the targeted segment.

I understand that with a smaller, turbocharged motor, that engine braking is limited. However, I am finding that I am using my brakes a LOT more with this car in the mountains than even the 2.0T in the Camaro. So my question, this Equinox, when geared down screams into high RPMs with very little slowing of the…

When left to my own devices, I often do some dumb-shittery. What follows is exactly that.

I work at a local, small town car dealership. A few years ago, the OE told us we had to renovate, or else! We didn’t, we’re still here. However, a couple weeks ago some severe weather came in and Dorothy’d our roof. Toto is fine. Back a few years ago when the OE was forcing us to go through this process they sent…

Yesterday, I responded (along with most of the first responders in my county) to a horrific car wreck. Single vehicle (Ford Explorer Sport. 5 passenger capacity) rollover with 7 (!) passengers inside. At least 4 of them were unrestrained and ejected from the vehicle upon multiple rollovers. The ages were around 4…

Way back in college, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, I once learned to code. Well, I “learned.” Meaning, I went to class, half assed listened, then I went to the store, grabbed a bottle of Goldschlager and went to town. Man, I miss college life.

........until right this moment. Now, it’s all I want.

No, it’s not for me. The Camaro is safely (albeit very dirty) outside my window just waiting for me to get off work and make the suspension do work. Anyway, I have this friend. Let’s call her Narcy (because she is absolutely a narcissist). She bought a brand new Nissan Rogue. I think. Maybe it was a Murano. No, it was…

Took the Camaro to Myrtle beach this weekend. The computer said 39.3. Actual tank over tank calculation between fill ups was 37 mpg. For a car only rated by the EPA at 31, I say not bad. No real hyper mile maneuvers. Stayed 5 over the limit most times. Never went above 70. But stayed at 70 for about an hour. No fast…

I have had the 4 cylinder Camaro 8-speed auto 1LT for about a month (so I missed it by a few days, shoot me.) Here are my impressions thus far:

Kind of want to do like I did to my Cruze with the same badge. The Camaro is rather badgeless. Doesn’t even have a “Camaro” badge. Which is fine. I like the clean look especially down the sides. The current Chevrolet’s all have the model name plastered in chrome lettering down the side near the front fender. Anyway,…

Looking into LED replacement bulbs. Anyone done it on the 16 Camaro? Is it a pain in the balls? Does it require a fascia removal?

Took a lot of great pictures this weekend. My own fault for not backing my stuff to the cloud. Bonus? 200 bucks and an insurance claim later and I’ll be getting a sort of upgrade? I guess? They didn’t have any iPhone 6's so they’re sending me an iPhone 6+. Not sure about the whole phablet thing but we shall see. This…

I buy practical cars. It’s really only ever been that way. I buy sedans, crossovers, bigger sedans, hatchbacks and wagons. Basically, if the road bike doesn’t fit in the boot, it doesn’t come home. That was, until yesterday when I put my hard earned pesos toward a 2016 Chevrolet Camaro 1LT with the 2.0 turbo 4 motor.…
