Curious why you chose to include Missouri. I pass state troopers all the time doing up to 10mph over the speed limit. They seem to be very reasonable to how traffic flow works.

Also, I get a kick out of passing a trooper when no one else dares to. Then I've got an open freeway ahead of me.

I saved a biker from getting rekt doing this. We were on a scenic cruise route and he had been behind me for awhile. Suddenly traffic ahead slams on their brakes. I know he won't be able to stop as hard as my car can so I look to see which way he's going to choose to crash his bike: head on to another car or go…

Not to mention, in more "involved" scenarios, what customer is actually willing to continue diagnosis at $130/hour to find out the absolute root of the problem? Most customers just want an answer but aren't willing to pay for it.

Really? I've always found the R33 to be the most handsome of the bunch.

But this isn't the only way you can illegally import a car without using official channels. There's also the other obvious option: just drive it over the border from Canada. Since Canada has less restrictive import laws than the States, this one seems easy: ship your car of choice to Canada, physically drive it across…

See stupid headline, check who authored... Of course.

That's exactly what this is. Give it time.

I'd understand the bitching if you used a click bait title such as "Is the Ford F-150 EcoBoost the Best Tow Rig Ever?", but alas, you didn't. And props to you for that.

I had a 1996 3000GT with this exact stereo. Couldn't believe it had an aux port but not my current 2006 Acura RL.

Firstly, a job well done to you and your team!

Secondly, why are the wheels so ugly?

Fortunately, to help explain Volkswagen's issues, they have me: a self-described automotive expert in the sense that a) I own a car, and b) I sold two cars in 2014, which makes me approximately as successful as the Routan.

Seriously Doug. How long does it take you to craft these perfect pieces of literature?

Always loved these and hope to have one some day... Good luck on your search!

Why are the wheels so ugly?

Had to dig deep to find this. Raph will never reply to these posts, either. Couldn't own up when he flipped his Bug and he can't own up to when he gets called out (which is happening more and more often).

Couldn't help but notice. I get that some Brits, for some odd reason or another, don't care for their teeth as well as they should but Clarkson's mouth looked like the inside of a garbage hauler.

I still enjoy mine. Had it since high school.

What "run-of-the-mill" used Lexus costs $55,000 on average...? I enjoy your articles, Tav, but these comparisons are getting out-of-hand.

Thank you for your reply. I've been curious why my optioned-out Acura still has three dummy switches. Now I'm not as upset at Honda.
