Nissan drivers in general are the worst offenders from what I have observed over the years. 

Volkswagen backlighting gets dim to dark depending on how much visible light is present to remind you to turn the headlights on. Not sure how far back they’ve done it, but my 2011 Golf TDI had this as well as a 2017 and a 2021.

Ford’s system will do this when the headlights are in the “Auto” position and the wipers have been in the “on” position for a certain amount of time.

Michigan just started offering this retro plate again and I’m digging it.

Wow what a time capsule. One of my high school friends had one of these in the family except it had the Supercharged 3800. It was actually a pretty fun car for being a big ass fwd sedan. Also a good reminder of the Fisher Price My First Interior™ design GM was notorious for.

UAH had a solid hockey program. Alumni even got together to save the program after the university administration eliminated funding. The Von Braun Center was too big of a venue for them but probably cheaper than having on-campus ice. Unfortunately, the demise of the WCHA left them without a conference to play in. I…

If big guy = tall, neither the Tacoma or 4Runner will work as the ceiling is too low. Maybe if the 4Runner doesn’t have a sunroof. 

5th Gear: any company electing to monitor it’s own air quality is going to place the monitors in the most favorable locations to demonstrate compliance instead of where they should go based on air pollution modeling. 

A subscription to power the vehicle on. Not from the remote, but from inside the car.

It’ll be a cold day in hell before the State of Missouri has EV incentives.

The Oldsmobile 442 in Demolition Man. Also the irony that they thought the Oldsmobile brand would still exist in 2032.

We almost always stop at Braum’s for at the very least a twist frozen yogurt cone when traveling in SW Missouri, SE Kansas, or Oklahoma.

You can do the same thing with model names of motor homes and travel trailers. It’s a fun game to play when you’re on a road trip. You know, who doesn’t love an Anal Intruder, Hideout, Chateau, etc. 

Same thing happened when they had the Diesel Cruze and Equinox (granted the Equinox wasn’t a big enough improvement to warrant the added cost). No one knew they existed and yet Chevy wondered why they had such a low take rate. 

Toyotas are notorious for lacking headroom, sunroof or not, so as a fellow tall person (6'6") I usually don’t even bother looking at them anymore.

I think the Rabbit/Cabrio even had the nickname “bitch basket” because of the roll bar. 

Just more electrified unobtainum that the masses won’t be able to afford. I’d rather they bring the ID.3 here. 

While it wasn’t a turbo version, I can relate. When I was growing up my dad had a ‘93 Grand Prix coupe in metallic medium red and a grey interior. I too liked the toggle buttons on the sides of the IP and remember thinking the amber backlighting was super cool. He got it as a PEP car as a GM employee.
