She stepped on the sticker from her thong underwear.

I use an Apple silicone case and a screen protector on my iPhone X...the grip is better than with a naked phone and the screen is scratch free. At $1150, you can be sure I’ll protect the phone. I find the face recognition to be the best feature of the phone. When I get a text message, I pick up the phone; the phone

Stop in 2003 and buy the 2003 model year...the last year produced.

Car & Driver Magazine this month tested the M5 with the lowly 600 hp version. They managed 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and the quarter mile in 10.9 @ 129 mph. Pretty good stats for a $127,295 as tested sedan. The weight was 4288 lbs...that’s some high-powered tank. Just what I’m looking for to run the kids to school or go to

I guess I won’t mention my 2009 E92 M3 Coupe (redundant with E92) with the S65 engine and the DCT (which by the way is a TRUE manual transmission with TWO pedals!). Can I mention it has EDC, ABS, and DSC? It’s also painted in A52, which is Space Gray for the unfortunate non-BMW people.

The new 2018 Honda Accord ACC goes all the way to zero now. To restart in traffic, touch the gas or hit the resume button. It works great. This feature was one of the reasons I traded in my 2016 Honda Accord Touring for the 2018 Honda Accord Touring 2.0.

A year ago I was interested in the Focus RS. Local Ford dealer wanted $10K over sticker on the car. Gee, I wonder why no one is buying the RS. Ford blames the buyers when they should be blaming the dealers. I’m now waiting for Honda to stop selling the Civic Type R in the US since some dealers want $20K over sticker.

They didn’t have enough time to put the 47 “M” stickers all over the body.

For his next car, he should immediately cut the wires to the DSC button so he can’t turn it off. And I was just wondering why my insurance rates went up 24% this year even though I have never had an insurance claim in the last 20 years. Now I know...I’m paying for him.

I did my part...sold my 2016 Honda Accord Touring V6 and bought the 2018 Touring 2.0 with 10-speed auto. The new transmission is so much smoother than the 6-speed auto of the 2016. The new Accord now has paddle shifters and a true manual mode, which was not available in the last generation. I switched tires to the

I love the car. I replaced the all-season tires with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires (245/40-19) and I installed the Hondata FlashPro which boosts the power. It’s an amazing car...the power and handling is so much improved. I’d go for the Touring model as it has all the goodies like high-beam LED’s and heads up display.

At $98,000, I’d just pay the extra and get the M5.

That’s the exact car that I ordered in 1997....4-Door E36 M3 in Boston Green with the Luxury Package. In fact 1997 was the only 4-door M3 with luxury package you could buy. They built the 4-door only in 1997 and 1998 but in 1998 the luxury package was no longer offered. Over the years I’ve tracked a 1995 325i, 1997

Wow...an Apple Lisa computer. I still have 3 Lisa’s in my basement circa 1985. They have a 10Mb hard drive and 1 Mb RAM. They were originally $10,000 when they were introduced. A dot matrix printer was included with the computer. It actually beat the Macintosh to market by 6 months. I bought mine back in 1985 for

I just received the Flashpro for my 2018 Honda Accord Touring 2.0 but haven’t installed it yet. If your Accord is a manual transmission, you can program a +6 psi and a +9 psi. But if your Accord is an automatic, you can only program a +3 psi currently. Hondata told me they will eventually come out with a +6 but not a

A 1931 Ford Model A because that would be“Four Score and Seven Years Ago”.

It should be easy...a Subaru with no bumper stickers. Now that’s a rare car in Oregon.

I just sold my 2016 Honda Accord V6 Touring and bought a 2018 Honda Accord Touring 2.0T. I always debadge my cars (removed the “ACCORD” “TOURING” and “2.0T” on the back) for two reasons: I don’t like the clutter of badges all over the back and I hate cleaning and waxing around the badges. I end up using a toothbrush

Wonderful...it was a great car. I drove from Concord, NH to LA in my 1970 Squareback while going to USC (3200 miles one way) several times. My best drive was cross-country in 3 days. The car has a “Maximum and cruising speed” of 84 mph. Back in the early ‘70's many highways were 80 mph. The gas crisis in 1973 stopped
