Sounds to me like you have too many specialized cars that should be consolidated. You’ve got two classic cars (912/allante), two radwood-ish ones (Supra/S6), a track car, and another project that’ll never be completed.

If wanting to/having fun with a car legally on public roads is grounds for institutionalization we’re all fucked.

Maverick and Miata. 

it’s easy to put too much blinker fluid in

Was there ever a time more steeped in hypocrisy than the early 2000's? Purity rings and abstinence pledges were everywhere in pop culture. ‘Family Values’ was still the conservative watchword. Meanwhile behind the scenes the people trotted out as the paragons of these values (while still being used to sell sex to…

I graduated high school in ‘01 and college in ‘05, mention of those earlier Adult Swim shows such as Space Ghost and Sea Lab really hit at a special place in my memories. They were weird in a way that didn’t feel like they were trying too hard, and I spent a lot of late nights watching them at the time. I also recall…

If you drive a manual car, left-foot braking is a terrible idea this side of a Scandinavian Flick. Your left foot is wired to do large amplitude movements, while the right foot is the one doing gentle short movements, which is what you need for regular acceleration and for regular braking. I’m sure it can be…

As a kid I loved watching Space Ghost (the original), then it was surreal when they took serious characters and made it into a silly talk show. SGC2C was an awesome show.

Adult Swim ruled my life for the better part of a decade. Even the shows that aired on AS that weren’t necessarily good were memorable for being just too damn weird. (IE: Assy McGee)

The Venture Bros. will always be #1 in my heart. Harvey Birdman, ATHF, SGC2C, and Robot Chicken round out my top 5.

There are lots of things, mainly knowledge retention and application. Specifically, I have noticed a dangerous trend in my area concerning right of way etiquette: “Dangerous courtesy”

Also a fun design. 

We used to call those “Shuttlecrafts”.

2) So true, many people complain about blindspots in cars, if you actually turn your head and look, you can see. Yes, there are some that even turning your head doesn’t help much, but they are still few are far between, short of driving something like a box truck, you can turn your head and still see out the back. And…

I looooove the Trans Sport, and I know I amn’t alone.

Your grandmother showed me.

Highway onramps are for accelerating up to highway speeds.

As a gen Xer, we group up in a transitional time. There were pockets of kids still keen to lust after the classics of 60s/70s, mostly I suspect, to fathers who finally had some money to live vicariously through their kids. Many kids were starting to appreciate the smaller more nimble cars from overseas. Audi Quattro,…

My wife, our oldest daughter, and our son each drove my SRT-4 Neon for a while. I swore I was going to teach my kids to drive stick, and I succeeded with 2 out of 3 of them. I bought the SRT new, and it’s definitely been driven (and seen a fair amount of track time). A couple of weeks ago was the 20-year anniversary…

100% this. No matter how consistant you think you are going, you are not

I think the Malibu is styled decently for what it is and the year in which it debuted, which was almost ten years ago. If anything, the Malibu’s lack of flair these days is entirely down to how old it is and GM’s understandable reluctance to invest in a full redesign all this time. All of its cohorts have been…
