Crew Cab ElCamino coming up!

Always wanted a Corvette and now in the financial situation to do so. C7 looks amazing to me. I’m 48yrs old (not a boomer!) and now it’s time to treat myself. Went to the local Chevy dealer in Burbank, CA last month and found one calling my name w/Z51 package. Sticker was $62K got it for $51K. Very little haggling.…

You can’t take money to the grave. If it makes you happy, go for the N. 

One word of advice for those with pets - put the dog away before using the food picks! We tried this with my child - she decided she didn’t want to try to cheese, with or without cutesy food pick. She threw the whole thing on the ground and the dog swallowed the whole thing before I could get it out of his mouth.…

Jelly that no one wants to steal my glorified camry? I sure do love finding my car exactly where I left it every day... The service drive...

I was a manufacturing engineer on the old 7.3. We were proud of that engine. It was built with forged rods and crank and a billet cam. It wasn't a powerhouses, but built to last. The factory workers wouldn't let suspect parts out the door-because they believed in putting out quality. Then we started seeing cost…

Because they have poor credit and it’s all they can afford?

“Alright, gonna grab that nice shiny BMW over there...”

They need to go back to their roots of simply slapping their badge on imported Hondas.

Acura has really lost their way and not had an exciting product in a long long time. So I am not holding my breathe here.

If they built lightly refreshed CL-Ss, Integras, and Legends today, they’d probably sell more cars.

I put a fair bit of work into getting 400hp out of my Ford 7.3, and your telling me all I had to do was switch to putting gasoline in it? FFS!

It actually warms my heart to see a company producing an engine based on being overbuilt and long lasting at the expense of outright power or sexiness.

But without the hideously expensive common rail fuel injection system, diesel particulate filter(s), and selective catalytic reduction system that the diesel needs to be legal. Oh, and no turbo, either.

Man... I was so eager to read about this update and learn it was everything I had hoped it would be. But I let out an audible expletive and my heart sank when I got to the part about 3-pedals not being offered on one of MINI’s highest performance products.

I’ve been actually going to dealerships shopping Minis lately, I’m really interested in the 4 door Cooper D. I was breathing heavily reading this article until I got to the sentence about the manual. I skipped the rest

As a longtime Mini enthusiast, this car is a hard pass. They left the round shape but instead of the speedo there’s a square screen. The window toggles are gone from center stack. The steering feel is gone. BMW has all these optioned up to $50k minimum on the lot. All the charm has been beaten out of this little…

Still a fun car but a JCW with no manual seems like sacrilege. 

I have to admit, I’m sort of excited for the day code cowboys find themselves face to face with humorless government testing regimes that mercilessly tear apart their code and file long, boring reports they have to read telling them how much they suck. Brogrammer meltdowns HO!!!

I’m trying to counter the pervasive idea that cruise is inherently dangerous in the rain, and somehow keeps going when you lose control, which just isn’t true. Most moderate rain it’s likely fine, and if you do get in trouble, cruise will kick off. These posts all rely on the idea that cruise control in the wet will…
