Agree that it’s a trivial issue to get worked up about, and to even go to the lengths to create a facebook page is crazy. BUT... I also agree with those folks, that it’s the dumbest thing I’ve seen people do with cars in a while. I remember reading your original post on the subject year ago, and ever since then I…

Wait, I think I saw Alpha Centauri dropping off the Last Starfighter in that car!

Yaaaassss bitch!!!!

Have to agree with David on this one.   Ford Flex is the way to go.

Herbie stripes, are the best stripes.  Scrolled specifically for this picture.  Thank you.

Good questions selected for today’s post, Tom.   Thank you!

There is typically a large yellow UP water tanker pulled behind the #5 fuel oil tender. Also, on UP Steam runs, there is usually a Diesel loco for dynamic braking, but not always.

Have been following this restoration since they selected 4014 as the one they were going to do. Also fun to see Challenger 3985 when it’s running, and of course I love seeing 844 running a highball!
All of the restored UP Steam Engines run on fuel oil now, instead of coal.   Pentex productions did a great documentary…

The wagoneer episode of Wheeler Dealers was probably one of my favorite ones. Once you get past the inevitable bodywork, these seem relatively easy, and fun, to work on.

These guys sure are making the rounds.   I first heard a couple years back in San Antonio area, then here in the Houston area, now Louisiana.   All done the same, slick way.  

Unless there is some real game-changing or “breaking news”, can we please have a couple of days without a Ghosn/Nissan or Tesla mention in the gears?

T.Mc has the right answer on this one.

If you read the article, it mentions that switching to drift mode holds the upshifts, vs the standard RWD setup.

Will it V?

My grandmother had one of these. But hers had the rounded off corners on the trunk, which I remember seeing very few similarly done that way. Most had the square corners like the lead image. She also added a plasti-chrome luggage rack on trunk lid.
Anyway, I recall the seats were more comfortable than our couch, and a…

He’s still alive?

This is 2019. Idiocracy, and OHSA, have removed the general public’s ability to be “taken through a warehouse”. For the average person, the salesman just spins his computer screen around to show them the various prices and the the deed is done.

If something is in the news every single day...does it really still qualify as “news”?  Please, might we have just one day without Tesla or Ghosn in the gears? Shooting for that goal tomorrow, would be a nice way to start the weekend.

I sell Steel pipe and tubing. The tariffs placed on steel and aluminum caused a metric shit-ton of panic in the industry last year, causing prices to skyrocket, and people to buy quickly to get ahead of rising prices. Yes, I made money hand over fist from February - July. However once the panic subsided, things slowed…
