There is truth in your claim - our 2010 Mazda6 is more efficient at 70 than at 65 because it tends to keep its torque converter locked more often - at 65, a slight hill can cause it to unlock the TC to prevent it from lugging the engine, and that hits efficiency.

However, adding more and more gears to transmissions is…

Meanwhile, in Texas:

God’s work.

Every time I see that logo I think they’re a Chrysler. And it confuses the shit out of me as Chrysler doesn’t make anything that nice.

So it appears Porsche is going for literal “blindingly fast” here.

The current 2.5L (FB25) found in the Forester you tested, as well as the Outback, and Legacy, was introduced in 2011 (for the Forester, 2013 for the Outback and Legacy). It shares practically nothing with the old 2.5L (EJ25) that was around in one form or another since 1996 except for the rounded up displacement.

If I had to choose one (and had the money), a steering wheel would be awesome.

Fighting is part of the game. It’s not personal (although sometimes it is. Usually it’s not.) It’s part of policing the play of others and it gives them something else to think about. It gets in their head. You have to think about fighting in hockey the same way you think about a pass rusher flattening a quarterback…

John Tavares, arguably one of the best players ever in the NLL (I don’t think I’m being Buffalo bias, but career records in pretty much every category), was a math teacher in Canada as as a daily job. The Bandits come close to selling out an 18k seat arena weekly, and the guy was still working a day job.

Tell that to the Bunk and Jim Brown!

If I had to live with only one car, a WRX would be on my short list. It does everything and is legitimately sporty.

Seriously? How is this post-worthy. How do people own cars and not know what these are.

As an American living in England, unless you’re planning on selling the car in the UK at the end of the trip, just buy over here. $30,000 over here equates to nearly £24,000 post-Brexit and there are all manners of Alfas, Land Rovers, Porsches, Maseratis, any French car, and so on and so forth that you’ll never have a…

Dear BMW,

That 911 made my butthole pucker there for a few minutes. Congratulations Ford, great win!! And way to be aggressive Taylor, that was a great drive and an even better no call by the officials. Fantastic race today.

It’s a Taylor racing dream team. Jeff was just 1/4 of it.

that is a retired NHL player crushing the Grammy Award-winning artist Justin Bieber.

Nope, I bought it from Doug.

I negotiated my contract to be payable in candy. I regret nothing.
