Also an unmarried, childless heathen here and I use/used mine minimum once a year, but usually more. Mostly for hauling people to and from places where minimizing cars or drivers is preferable. Back when I worked in the office we’d cram people into the 3rd row to go to lunch. Now that I don’t it is mostly used for

I’d vote the Peugeot 402/202 because like... look at it. (202 pictured from Wikipedia

Old but still good...

Nice catch!

WHAT!? Strong disagree. I love that in every car I have. 100% it needs to have sensitivity adjustment available, and most do, but every time I get in a car that doesn’t have it I have to crank the music on the highway and then get my ears blown out when I get off. Though that might be because I drive shitboxes....

If you’ve got some mechanical inclination and the time, I ended up rebuilding neglected bikes from good brands off craigslist. I never made any money on it, but ended up breaking even on the two I sold and have two really nice road bikes to ride. Cheapest one was a Schwinn Varsity for $5, most expensive was a Ironman

I’m sure you know this, but hand warmers are awesome for cold wrenching.

Sure it starts with rich people taking their F550-based fancy motor home “off road,” but it ends with significant trail damage due to the weight/size the of vehicles, damage to natural resources as they fail utterly to understand the

But I didn’t think quickly enough, and the result was a destroyed Chevy HHR and a bruised up Lincoln MKZ.

Hats off to the crew that run DriveTribe for a clearly announced and orderly shutdown with a clear path to backing up creators’ content.  We all know that isn’t always how these shutdowns go... :cough:

Dude.

I feel like I am contractually obligated to say: And surprisingly good (if occasionally comical) offroad!(Though the 2.4L suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks)

Surprised after all that trouble they didn’t just... finish rotating the tires?  They were already off...

Cui bono?

Great work digging into this! I too am curious as to the motivations here. I mean... seems like car importing in general is up (or becoming more visible) but I can’t imagine it is cutting into new car sales in any appreciable way. Did a kei car sleep with the director’s wife/girlfriend/boyfriend? How long until they

An entire article about Tesla Stans and we didn’t even get this meme?
