It isn't just the height thing(though that is a lot of it). He is *big*, not just tall. Given the size of his feet he would likely need the pedals modified, if not the whole pedal box redesigned.

Want to try something without a lot of useless features? Have I got the vehicle for you!

There was the Chrysler M6 transmission(sold as the Presto-Matic, Fluidmatic, Tip-Toe Shift, Gyro-Matic, and Gyro-Torque). It is a 2-speed manual with a fluid coupling and a underdrive(like the opposite of an overdrive). Basically it was an evolutionary dead-end that was what Chrysler used until they could develop a…

Mercury pushbutton. All the confusion of a pushbutton transmission ,with an even less intuitive layout. I can't even begin to guess how to drive this thing.

Hot Wheels made a version of the top vehicle, I have one stashed somewhere in the house...

Nope, because I can't get a plan under the Affordable Care Act if I can get insurance through my employer. Plus their coverage for me under my employer is adequate, though not great.

The amounts I quoted are *WITHOUT* subsidies or credits. those are the out of pocket costs with no adjustments for income, etc. Read for comprehension.

My girlfriend(who is in her 40s) works fora tiny publishing company that doesn't offer health care. We have not been able to afford to add her to my insurance because it would cost $and extra $7280/year($606.67/month) we don't have. Under the health insurance exchanges set up under the affordable care act she will be…

While I think the price is a little high for what is essentially a project car, I have to say that the Allante aged well. I wasn't much fond of them when they were new, but seeing this one in green(as opposed to the "look at my trophy wife!" red most came in) it is actually a reasonably attractive car.

That was left over from the failed attempt to use a live gator for the center console.

It will, without doubt, make a statement. Whether you want to be associated wit the statement a a 49 year old rusty, leaky base-model chevy pickup will make is a separate question.

I once heard the tent kit described as "The worlds ugliest car, wearing a diaper"

The "No Va" thing is an urban legend in english speaking countries. the word "Nova" exists in spanish , and means the same as in english.

Oh man, I am so lucky that is on the other coast, or I'd have another project car to try and cram into our already full driveway.

The cars they change out don't go away, they are bought by someone else and stay on the road. Old cars with outdated or non-functional pollution controls are still driving.

Hydrogen takes energy to extract, it doesn't exist by itself in nature so you need to split it from water or other compounds. That requires energy which has to come from somewhere, usually electricity from a power plant.

Then your premise is flawed. It is much easier to control emissions and reduce pollution from a smaller number of power plants than from a much larger number of tail pipes.

A friend of mine worked in a vinyl sign shop and made one that was about 3 feet long and said "I care more than you." I wish he'd been able to mass-produce those.

How about a Scion xB? This was *after* a set of racing springs and rear anti-roll bar.

1962 Mercury Comet? This was a buddy of mine taking my car out while I filmed, he cracked the right front hub during this run.
