I pegged it as a Volvo right off, but I was thinking it was a 240 series. Between the headlights and the utter box-ness, it was a giveaway.

Isn’t it the Land Cruiser Prado based off a similar platform as the 4Runner? I thought the LX was the full boat Land Cruiser platform.

I (we/my family) was always afraid someone would get hold of my Dad’s Toyota pickup and turn it into a lowrider. I heart little trucks!

I think this is a good use for slideshows, compared to the rest of the garbage gizmodo foists upon us! A pictue and an explanation!

2020 just happened. Republicans still have their grips on state legislatures, which means gerrymandering. Democrats better have a strategy for winning over gerrymandered districts immediately and wrenching control of legislatures in 2030. Plan that far ahead. Republican led states means voter suppression immediately…

Rahm Emmanuel is a Democrat pit-fighter. Biden’s cabinet is not a useful position for him. His policies are too transactional (hey, remember the president-dude that won’t concede?) and too suspect to outside (aka wealthy) influence. I’d use him as an attack dog, but not someone directly responsible for policy, unless…

Ray Wert!

I think that’s also how AOC won her primary. Just knock on doors and talk with people, find out what they need. If coal is looking bleak, how can we help you find employment? How can we support your communities? It’s so much better than promising coal will be back and better than ever. Many many people will be…

Yeah no. Your Overton window is off. Yes, the window has shifted massively to the right in the past decades. But, you gotta remember the principle of the Overton window. Keep your policies inside the window but on the side of where you want the window to slide. I find every uncompromising progressive can’t grasp the…

Seriously, Nissan is selling an Infiniti. Not a Nissan. Would it be so bad to the bottom line to put a ZF 8HP transmission instead of a CVT in their offerings?

I used to work in the automotive division of a fuel cell company ages ago. That was exactly the problem... Trying to design fuel cells for peak power automotive applications. Talk about throwing money into a black hole with burned out PEM membranes and gas channel issues. Although battery development at the time was…

The strange column is for the archery set and apple storage. William Tell re-enactments can happen at any time.

A lot of us would love a Washlet if we had the money to burn. But who wants to throw hundreds at a device that squirts water at your butt unless they have tried one and thought it was better than sliced bread? For most people, I propose the test bidet: The Brondell Thinline SimpleSpa. $30 on Amazon. Like it? Either…

Having a Rondo would then be considered an asset. Nobody wants to drive other than getting to work? No friends begging them for rides? That’s a plus.

What if you drive as a team, like husband and wife? That means a truck could pretty much run indefinitely, right? (not sure of the rules in that respect)

My FXT was smoke-free until I sold it. Then my coworker used it as a hot box for his horrendous stinky weed until he got fired because he couldn’t function at work without smoking up all the time. Which actually made him a worse worker and more irritable.

I’m on the Volvo C30 bandwagon. I used to have a 04 FXT (auto, but the auto was supposedly faster than the manual from a stoplight). It was my second Forester, and I got a great deal on it from an estate sale. But anyways, I’d get a C30 if I wanted to have the cool car. I love the rear hatch and the 3 door look. With…

Do eeeeeeet!
Maybe suggest they upgrade to a projector/screen and donate to the cause ;) Then more people can come and watch!

I sold my 04 FXT a couple years ago. I had the turbo replaced (ugh, cost me too much when the mechanic guessed an oiling issue rather than the turbo going. And I said the turbo was failing when I brought the car in).
Anyways, crack pipe. If you drive it hard, the Subaru 5MT is fragile. The turbo might be fine and…

They might be a fortune, but.. I think I might want the TSX wagon over the Legacy GT. And I am Subie for life.
I know the TSX will do its job and the driving characteristics will always be nice.
