I've had a C5 corvette for about 7 years and I can honestly say that while it had its faults, there was absolutely nothing that made me the least bit interested in getting rid of it for something else until fairly recently.

That because a 20 or 30 year old car by X manufacturer was awesome or terrible, the new version of it must be the same. The cars literally have no common parts, except maybe the brand badge. There have been advances in engineering, technology, safety, performance and manufacturing. Brands have chosen to go very…

I would also point out that the older consoles generally do not look good on an LCD or plasma tv. CRT tv's had a lot of color bleed and game designers used that to mask large pixels and for color separations and shading. They will look pretty terrible on new tech tv's.

tldr on the above post - s-video is actually a better signal than composite, significantly so.

I would put an asterisk on that - from Component up to HDMI, it completely depends on the source signal. You can't really specifically rank them like that. Especially considering DVI is the same as HDMI without audio. All of those connectors can carry up to at least 1920x1080 pixels video, but down to 720 or 640 x…

that's so obvious - i can't believe I missed it. Well that certainly makes more sense, although to be honest, having the ladder that's less firmly attached seems even more insane.

Beyond it just being a ladder, it's a ladder that ends on top of the desk. That looks pretty difficult to navigate and puts the iMac there well in harm's way. Good idea, bad execution

best part of this is seeing a 2014 silverado 1500 without the massive silver/chrome grille. That thing is awful, but this I like.

The corvette still doesn't have the incredibly useful option this had years ago - the hardtop convertible. Fabric roof convertibles are huge compromises - they aren't secure and they aren't particularly good at all in non-top-down weather. Sure the vette has a targa roof option, but that's pretty far from a refined…

I don't see the Ford mess anywhere - half of their product portfolio is one platform anymore

you missed a good one

This reminds me when I bought my 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer. There were two options:

No man

Wow that brings back memories.

Police departments and taxi companies kept these things running long into the new century, even though GM got rid of them in 1996. There are still plenty of them on the road and they have held decent value if they aren't completely ragged out.

I spent some time job searching in a slow market in 2009-2010, and I had a number of interviews where I had offers on the table for less than I was making, I decided to just go do what I wanted to do, and I took a pay cut to do it.

New cars have absolutely increased in price far faster than salaries have grown, of course they're going to be more out of reach for someone starting out new.

I want a modern version of the 69-72 Blazer badly - this to me is an absolute win and hands down one of the most versatile vehicles ever made. Much like the Avalanche, you have a true V8, 1/2 ton body on frame design, with both rear seats and a small cargo area, or no rear seats and a pretty useful bed. The blazer…

I think gold anything on cars is absolutely terrible, but I'm willing to accept its existence on the Turbo Trans Ams.
