I tried taking my used alkaline batteries to my local e-recycling center; they would only accept rechargeable batteries including small seal lead acid batteries. So I basically just throw them in the trash now, though I have been switching most of my batteries to rechargeable batteries, except some TV remotes that…

I was so excited to turn 16, that I went and got a permit on my birthday so I could take driver’s ed immediately. If you turned 17 and got the full license, you had good grades, you were permitted to park in the school parking lot and you could go out for lunch or during free periods. Heck yes it was freedom. I’m…

If anyone buys this for 2.2M they deserve all the profanity in the world.

Not surprising as BMW needs that V12s for their Rolls Royce lineup as well.

Ooohh, I’m interested.

I definitely care about MPGs because every dollar I save I can get another toy or maybe a mod.

They should really fix the public transit infrastructure before instituting the congestion charge. The charge should be to maintain the infrastructure, not fix it. They have this backwards…

I’m curious about the interior. Is it refined like a German car or just still a luxury Honda?

In 2014, I got the urge to see F1 live, so I went to two F1 races; I first picked Singapore. It was tons of fun and the noise from the grandstands is totally different from watching it on TV, though most of the time you’re just watching the same stream on the jumbotrons like everyone else is on TV. I think I spent…

IMO for a luxury brand like JLR, 10/10 points on the service survey is their bread and butter. 425 miles is a not okay; sounds like they went through the entire tank of gas; that gets a 1/10 in the survey unless they can give me a full tank of gas and a detail for all those stains. I wouldn’t bother with looking at…

I went to a Ford dealer to test drive a Mustang and they wanted me to jump through like a zillion hoops like it’s the most exclusive car in the world, but when I went to a Lamborghini dealer and I sat in an Aventador, they offered me a test drive without me asking and all they wanted was a copy of my driver license.

These cars also come with a card key that you can put in your wallet, so unless you forget your wallet too then, I guess you’ll need to find a person to lend you a charger for the ten minutes or so that gets your phone turned on.

I usually avoid checking bags, but couple weeks ago I thought the check-in time was 30 minutes before the flight, when it was actually 45 minutes. It was the last flight of the day and they were sold out the next day until the evening flight. Since I had already checked-in online and I have the mobile boarding pass, I…

This car probably makes more than the 707 HP at the crank than the Trackhawk does.

I don’t like touchscreens because I hate seeing fingerprints on my screens. It even annoys me when I see dust on the screen. I have an urge to clean it off.

I took a train four times in college. It was either one hour flight, seven hour drive, or fourteen hours by train. The first two times I was intrigued. The last two times I actually felt nostalgic. By junior year I rented an apartment with parking, so I ended up driving a lot.

My concern isn’t germs. I just ate a sandwich while driving a rental car in a country with questionable hygiene.

The WTF to me is the manufacturer is afraid of their dealer and refuses to help. What kind of BS is that. I think Ford should just step in say here’s a new clutch, we’ll cover a check on your brakes. Maybe new pads that’s about it. Also $380 for an alignment?! My BMW dealer only charges like $150 and even that’s…

You know those custom fit floor mats from Weathertech. This is kind of the same. They’ve been around for years. They’re custom fit and machine made in China. Since labor is cheap they can stitch the “leather” on there. It costs something like $50 [in China] to buy for any car you want. Couple of fact that the car…

If it’s the same BMW engine, then the engine maps can  be easily reflashed. There is already a ton of tunes for that motor.
