NP but dat interior. That leather looks cracked.

This article makes me feel old. My dad was with the First AD in Ansbach ~’86-’88 and the Abrams was new-ish, and yeah, they definitely rocked the Gulf War a few years later, after he’d gotten out.

I don’t see a problem. Maybe that the Native Americans weren’t putting up Private Property signs? Which the song specifically decries.

Local anti-folk musician Lach put a sped-up punkish version on one of his albums. Less about Native Americans than anti-property ownership.

Mister Gradenko and I have developed a fetish for a deuce-and-half. Maybe when we finish the compound and prepare for the coming apocalypse.

That center console looks suspiciously non-driver-centric.

Now all I can think of is how many speeding tickets the X-Men should have for supersonic flight in the Blackbird.

The USCG Eagle is still in service. Taken as a war prize by the US from Germany, she was put to see in 1936 IIRC.

My Haynes is pretty pristine, lives in a tidy compartment of the Saab, but it has been a good reference for:

As often as my phones have died with out in the cold, having the car fail while driving up to the mountains for a ski trip would be even worse.

TL;DR. While Mister Gradenko and I met kayaking, his true passion is skiing, and every winter we go to the Adirondacks with a pack of skiers and skiing is skied on the ski-place. I fell on my face, impacting an icy road, and only three years later have I taken a lesson and braved the green slopes.

I remain bizaarely hopeful. In a way, this sounds like financial engineering on Evergrande’s part, and when the Chinese economy implodes,Saab will buy it all back and make amazing cars.

I’ll bring a bottle to share. Mine’s just a year older.

What are you talking about? These are GM cars. I bought taillights off Amazon, wipers at an auto parts store, and an interior engine cover off eBay. Mine’s an ‘05 9-5 wagon.

That . . .that was awesome. 

An entire series? This thing’s already longer than it needs to be.

Also got dropped in Journey Into Mystery credits at one point, I believe.

I dunno about random, but my 2005 Saab wagon also has dual cigarette lighters charging plugs.

Quik! To the Wonkamobile!

I am not clear on whether this is meant to be a historical rally or a daily driver. It’s too meh for the former and to much for the latter.
