Yep, the ‘59 Buicks are permanently pissed off.

Autocross everything!

Ha! That reminds me of back in ‘96 when my father was shopping for a company truck. He is legally blind(the truck was going to be driven by his employees), so I was ferrying him to various dealerships. W were at the Mazda dealership looking under the hood of a B-series pickup while the salesman went on and on about…

I think you are thinking of the Dynamaxion above, there were only three made and they were build of aluminum.

Does this mean they might actually make the Bulli?

Yep. When you choose an action, you choose the potential outcomes of that action. Don't like that, don't choose the action.

The Chrysler M6(sold as the Presto-Matic, Fluidmatic, Tip-Toe Shift, Gyro-Matic, and Gyro-Torque) from the late 40s/ early 50s. It was a 2-speed manual back up with an auto-shifting 1:1 overdrive , with a fluid coupling to the engine.

That's the problem with modern cars, the engine compartment is so cramped there isn't room for your luggage anymore. Why in my '64 pickup I can get a full 3-piece rolling luggage set and garment bag, but my Scion will barely take a small overnight bag.

The hyperbole that the choice is between A)cameras that broadcast everything to the internet with no checks whatsoever on who gets access to the footage and which does not consider the privacy rights of whoever the cop interacts with, or B)no cameras at all.

I was only referring to the live streaming of the footage, not the filming itself.

Except for the fact that violates the privacy of anyone the cop encounters. There are a lot of situations that cops respond to that the people involved do not need broadcast to every random yahoo on the internet.

Thanks. They are awesome little cars and I've done all sorts of things with it.

As little as possible while covering your needs. New awesome car may seem great, but the less you spend (total or per month) is more money you have to both put towards future financial security and towards the rest of your lifestyle.

So Ford's smallest truck can now haul a Ford Fusion in the bed, or tow three Ford Tauruses at once.

You're asking me to make sense of Ford business decisions as to what vehicles to offer in other countries? Not a chance of me figuring that out...

Nope, the Comet sedan was longer in the wheelbase as well(104.9 vs 114), Only the Comet wagon shared the Falcon wheelbase.

I have loved the Frontenac front end since he first time I saw a pic of one. I'd love to get my hands on one as wall art.

1960 was a weird year for the Comet as well. It had been designed as an Edsel, then when Edsel was binned it was hastily rebadged as just "Comet"(no brand) and shifted to Mercury dealers. It didn't become officially a "Mercury Comet" until '62.

I dearly love the Pao and really want to import one now that they are legal. Sadly buying a 100+ year old fixer-upper house means there is no chance I can afford the cost to buy a decent example and have it shipped to the east coast of the US.

In my personal experience with J-turns, this is how it goes:
