Here's my vote: the handset manufacturers need to sit themselves down and come up with a standardized way to support an external display and touchscreen - call it "MHL-double-plus-good" or something. The auto manufacturers at that point can put whatever they want on their infotainment systems, but stick an…

This is definitely something that's screwed up with Colorado law. I would at least like to see an exemption for rain water collection for purposes that amount to "it's still going to hit the ground, just later". Lawn watering, garden irrigation... it's all going to make it back into the water basin, just on a…

Ya know, people are allowed to change their opinions based on new data. That's the joy of a free society, after all.

Sure. Drunkenly assaulting a bomb-shelter is one possibility.

In my house the biggest stresser (like yours) is meal-planning. Haven't really found a solution for it that we like (and I'm not thrilled about paying for a service).

If you created a "burner account" (that is, one not tied to another identity (facebook, gmail, etc) then it's basically un-changeable - if you closed the account creation screen without writing down the very random password that's displayed, then you're out of luck (as far as I know).

260HP or not, if I can't see out of it then I can't drive it. The HHR (in its era) was on my "any car EXCEPT" list at every rental company I had an account with. The thing was just a black hole, even trying to look forward (nothing less fun than having to lick the airbag in order to get down low enough to see the…

While the reuseability might be neat for hobos, college students and others who move frequently, I'm not really seeing the value-add over a standard "dog tag" such as you can obtain and customize at most large pet stores for, what, $10 at most?

Can't recommend the Saddleback stuff enough. I have their bi-fold and it is exceptionally wallety.

Also known as: the last wallet I will probably ever need to buy. Sensible, classic and solid.

Totally agree - with an asterisk. This is basically "not news".

4.) Remember That Little Things Will Hold You Up At Every Turn

I'm rooting for these guys, too. I don't have money in the game, but I really like the idea of a low-cost, high-efficiency vehicle that has airbags and a heater (love my motorcycle, but not on ice).

Several of my friends have SL1/SL2s that did, in fact, turn into the oil-burning money pits of legend. I, on the other hand, have had two Saturns purchased new and came out pretty well. "Panel Gap" be damned, more companies need to do flexible polymer body panels.

That commercial bugs me.

You can't.

Plenty of time to de-crumb your car that's way down in your apartment's parking lot/garage.

Not sure if serious., but in case this actually needs clarification:

Let me rephrase: It's not "bad translation" it's "no effort put into trying a translation". I'm sure somebody just saw the page with pictures of a vacuum cleaner and the English word "USB" amid the meaningless Japanese characters and leaped to a really neat conclusion.

Seriously, can somebody do some logical thinking around here before posting articles?
