I'm pretty sure that first car is blue.

(Edited because I looked at their comment stream, and Honest Abe appears to be a pre-pubescent troll. PLEASE DO NOT FEED.)

...frees up massive 2,200 pounds of payload capacity for your imagination to run wild with.

Regardless of how you feel about the military, recognition of anyone that flies this incredibly difficult aircraft is a worthwhile endeavor. It requires countless hours of preparation and significant mental and physical ability just to keep it in the air. NASA also uses U2 aircraft to do a lot of climate and…

Is there something I should know about these? I've installed them on my little city runabout Toyota and they seem fine and are low-dusting. They were well-reviewed when I bought them.

So, a little car tie-in on that song: Years back, VW ran a commercial featuring that song and a young Tony Hale:

So I went looking on Cafe Press, and only found this, which I don't think is in on the joke:

I feel you. Just finished replacing the Bluetooth unit in my A3. (MSRP $640) A failed Bluetooth module will cause the nav headunit to remain active until it drains the battery completely. This isn't a problem if you use your bluetooth and notice it stop working all of a sudden, but if not, it might take you a while…

Is Upworthy writing your headlines now?

"The dealership wanted $4,400 to fix his car. What one man did for $7 will shock you!"

"Instead of loading it down with bombs, the radar should have been improved to give it Eagle-like capabilities and the jet should have taken more of an air-to-air role."

I love the idea of him screaming pacenotes through the passenger window over the engine noise:

Exactly. The amount of force that it would take to roll these out of the recessions is more than it would take to topple stands. I'm probably ordering a set of these.

Ha! I actually thought to myself: "Well, doesn't do much for me personally, but let's see what Skay says before passing judgment." <scroll, scroll, scroll>

Totally agree. I was trying to say that before things can change to make these cars something that you can work on, people need to be willing to spend a little more money for a serviceable car, and they'll only do that if they start working on their own cars. That's the only way to override the cost-savings…

Nah, he's not such a bad guy. I drive clients around, and they can be stunningly shallow about that kind of thing and expect to see the trappings of success. I actually had one client say something about my car once. That guy was a major douche.

Now you're thinking! Time for a letter campaign: "Dear (car manufacturer) your current vehicle lineup does not meet my meth lab needs, and since that Breaking Bad show, the motor home is too conspicuous. More roll-down tailgate and factory window tint, please. I do love the interior color schemes this year. …

So something can stick out the back: surf board, lumber, palm tree.

Time to put the "utility" back into Sport Utility Vehicle.

I was thinking about this the other day as I wrenched on my car, and I think people need to start working on their own cars again for things to create pressure on design for maintenance efforts. Dealers and their mechanics love design for manufacture because they get to spend more hours working on the car, get a…
