I did one of these ten years ago. It was a groupon deal, so I booked one for my 15 year old daughter as well, not realizing that we’d be flying separate planes at the same time. We live near a small airport, and I’ve always complained about the noise, but flying above my neighborhood, with my daughter in sight and…

...and the guy bought it from a retired Ford engineer who knew the codes for all of the secret parts installed during his custom factory build...

...might you simply be infringing on someone else’s patented, copyrighted and trademarked way to present a hobo bludgeoning? you might need a lawyer either way. my firm’s been representing hobo bludgeoners, bum rushers and shiftless drifter discouragers for more than a fortnight come tuesday. please contact us at your…

my sister drove a 1971 Vega....park it in the garage, turn off the radio and any electrical appliances in the room...and you could hear it rust...

As a retired transportation planner tasked with routing those 60' beasts and squeezing them into bus stops designed for shorter craft, I can assure you that calling them articulated buses is standard usage...it was only on Top Gear that I heard Richard Hammond call them “bendy buses”...but he also calls French toast…

so...in a vote for the black sheep and seldom-mentioned, I can’t say I’ve ever been more impressed than by John Cusack’s limo-swerving/jumping chase in 2012....but maybe I’m just so in love with an arrogant [president’s chief of staff-not an arrogant president-Danny Glover was anything but] getting socked in the face…

...I have this image.....of a car spinning gravel, a tongueless moose chasing his detached appendage...

...and much more like a real car

you fail to consider that we yanks who grew up in the 1960's and 70's, have images of Blackpool cultivated by a decade of references by Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull

not wrong at all....but they were all pretty slick...I remember when the trio of “diamond-star” turbos, particularly the top shelf AWD models, were perennial picks for Car and Drivers top 10 list..

So how much less Should I have to pay for a car delivered in flat gray primer?

Several years back, I had the misfortune of renting a Canadian market Captiva, a vehicle that didn’t seem to correlate with anything GM was selling in the states.

Damn, same thing happened to me, TWICE. Starting to smell like a conspiracy involving the auto industry, the banks and the gravity cartel

If two Georgia senate races have to be runoff because neither candidate captured more than 50% of the vote, and the seriously concerned voters turn out on January 5, the Democratic senate will beat on Mitchie so hard that Yertle’s mug will be frozen in that shit-eating grin 

my daughter reminds me with every car I bring home that if I suddenly croak, it’s hers, so make it either interesting or useful..(hinting for a pickup for the furniture she adopts...)

Maybe for the Feds, but I’ve worked for county and municipal governments in NY state, including management of a large fleet database, and anything used on a public road was plated.....and so I once received a red light camera ticket that included a photo of an offending sedan. The ticket was dismissed when I pointed…

downright refreshing to hear someone admit that their numbers might not be as solid as they were ballyhooed to be, and seem willing to subject his product to further scrutiny in the hope that the bottom line meets the ballyhoo

I once sat down with a friend, much beer and a JC Whitney catalog. Installing all of the hardware that Mr. Whitney promised would boost my horsepower, and compounding the maximum percentage by which each would raise that power in the proper sequence, my Karmann Ghia’s output was somewhere in the vicinity of 2,400…

beautiful cars, but that sparkley lighting makes them look as if they’re covered in bird shit.

...and specifically, fuck Hyundai dealers. While I don’t expect salespeople to be experts, able to recite detailed specs on every product they sell, I do expect them to know something about their damn cars. Twice, years apart, at two different Hyundai dealers, not only were the salesmen clueless, but as I described…
