Followed by "what's that? You desire not the individuals in charge of this jurisdiction to visit your tenement? In that case I shall take a temporary service vehicle, but only if a Mercedes Benz and only if my service animal shall attend in the passenger seat."

Agreed. I generally go with the principle that if someone is not willing to play ball with you for knowingly and negligently damaging your property, it's time to put the (e)brakes on and call in a neutral third party - aka the fuzz.

Yup, a more succinct one with less BS. Something like "First of all, I'm an idiot. Yeah, I thought I was clear and stomped on it, countersteered too little and launched the fuc*er. Oops. Really glad I didn't kill someone and I learned my lesson. Sorry I acted like a know-it-all asshat. I won't do it again."

Unrestored 63 e type. Drove it hard but well...its straight 6 purred...my wife and I giggled like School kids.

Plus, if you put yourself in the semi drivers shoes, would you really want to lock everything up and risk jack knifing your rig (and maybe killing yourself, other drivers and losing an entire load) because somebody cut you off? He made the right call, try and slow down to avoid a crash, hit the friction brakes and if…

Judging from the "love you, bye" sounded like a GF/wife. Didn't look like his reaction time was affected at all as he was on the brakes as soon as that car cut in front of him, just have to listen for them.

Yeeeeeaaaaaaah.... that many screws in that little rubber seems like a GREAT way to weaken the structural integrity of the tire. #overkill #badideajeans #wasteotire

WHY, WHY! did you have to change out the wheels - seriously? The derpy white ones were an improvement?

Thanks so much for sharing some cool memories of what brought you to love cars so much and for a well-written critique of the Z06 and others. It really is amazing how much of a personality each vehicle has...

got back in my jeep after my wife drove it for a week. Asked her when the clunk coming from the rear end started..."what clunk". Two days later found a sheared off grade 8 bolt head on the garage floor. Two days after that found it came from my rear control arm, which was barely attached.

Like lasers coming from the engine intakes? How 'bout that.

Mine gets this slightly distant look in her eyes...I think she's been training me. I know to just gradually fade out and change the subject at the point to save my dignity.

Yes. This. If it isn't yours don't touch it! Slightly followed by the kids who drag their grubby little fingers down the length of my 911's front fenders.

How much money do you think was spent on this press conference and the wrecker time? I think that should personally be deducted from whoever took point on this from DHS and it should be earned in overtime pay by having him/her hand-polish the valve cover on the hot engine block of a "legal" mini... with nothing but…

Well, I say you can all eat shit.

I'd recommend spraying a cloud of carb and throttle body cleaner in front of you before you walk in the house and she won't know what hit her...you probably won't either...you may not even know where you are anymore!

it's got hubcaps which I think would rule out most lexus models. Maybe an old maxima?

I think we have found something on which we can agree :)

StevenG, sorry to disagree, but they actually have to...legally. Reasonable accommodation is required under the ADA for an individual with disabilities. According to ADA.gov " The idea is not to exclude a customer by being unwilling to make an accommodation that is fairly simple and easy to make." Ergo, if you had…
