That’s your reason? Wow. I can tell if a car is re badged a mile away. If you need a badge to determine the make of a car then you have bigger issues. The other day I saw a Dodge Neon with an Audi badge. Does that mean I went “holy shit look at that nice Audi?”

Re badging should be illegal? THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT

“As for the other part of your question, Elvis, NO! Nobody in Europe would ever fasten an American license plate to their car in an attempt to seem cooler.”

This! This is the review that immediately popped into my head but couldn’t remember if it was C&D, THANK YOU for this, great to revisit.

This one wins. Not often do I read every word in an article like this.

These days, with the competition available, I can get my oil changed for $5 more than if I’d do it myself. I stay clean, I don’t need to go to the store and I don’t need to recycle the oil. More than worth it. But then, I’ve never had a drain plug cross-threaded or overtorqued...yet.

Off topic: What’s with Americans and their pride of changing their own oil?

So starring something did nothing and we should have littered the thread with repeat posts?

Torch, please PLEASE find this man. We need to give him some kind of hall of fame recognition. The fact the first one was so successful and innovative and legitimately road worthy is a testament, doubly so in such an austere place in location and time.
