I like these a lot (have only experienced them from a distance). It’s in beautiful shape and the colors aren’t bad. (Maybe not so much, now that I I think about it. Would prefer any dark single-color paint. The gold is better than 2-tone or white or a bright color.) Would it be cheaper to get it up to snuff than to buy…

If you mounted the Truck Nutz to your wheels, please re-read the instructions.  /J

I’ve had one truck stuck in damp grass (right near the hardpack where the mail carrier drives up to the box) with passenger tread tires, and one damn near stuck in damp grass (my own side yard) with highway tread. AT all the way.

Yeah, they coulda totally launched it off the carrier!  Assuming the carrier’s launchers were maintained in operating condition...

I have no interest whatsoever in this car, and that goes double for the automatic trans, but NP for somebody.

OP calls out the ‘55 Thunderbird with “just the hint of fins.” Jalop posts a ‘57 Thunderbird pic...

I can see doing a show like Chopped, or The Voice (assuming I had talent, which I don’t). If I was a 20-something hottie (which I never was), NO FUCKING WAY would I do The Batchelor or one of those other things. Maybe 20 years ago we had no idea how people would be portrayed on those shows, but now we know. How often…

I worked for an engineering company that did quality testing for VAG, which included driving production, preproduction and camouflaged cars around, testing, reporting and analyzing any concerns.  This was a little before my time there, but I’m told when onlookers asked about the A5, the driver would tell them it was a…

Bullets are cheaper.

What is wrong with Rory and Collin? They made perfectly appropriate suggestions for the OP’s needs.  That’s Tom’s job!

I considered an STi in 2018. I bought a GTI (manual). If there was an STi hatch or wagon, my purchase decision may have been different. My decisions don’t matter to carmakers, though, as the GTI was my first-ever new car at 51 years old, and the next time I need to consider a new car, everything will be electric and…

I gave it NP because it’s a B.

Nice to not have the stereotypical colors. Peel off the stripes, replace the tinted lights, and change the wheels. Call me old-school, but my wheels need to have at least _some_ silver color on them. NP.

Hunter S. Thompson’s used car ad?

And if you can take off again, it was a great landing.  This one wasn’t great.

The Miata will leave you with money left over for couples’ therapy.

Since rules are made to be broken, I’ll take a Charger Scat Pack in B5 blue or F8 green. MSRP starts at $50,330, mine is $61,185 with options, thus breaking the rules. I’ll make up the difference with a trade-in. I’ll miss my GTI.

My stepdaughter in Florida needed to rent a car while hers is in the body shop. Electric cars are renting for much lower prices, and she was interested in getting one. She has a short commute and tons of charging stations near home and work in her city of 56,000 people. For various reasons, mostly involving insurance,…

By way of a hysterical misinterpretation of the actual rules. If you’re traveling, you probably aren’t bringing your 72" TV with you. Whatever you _are_ bringing with you, you log that device or devices into Netflix at home one time to register it, then you go on your way.

If I participated in that boycott, AA won’t notice. I can’t remember the last time I flew on AA, but it’s probably been 20 years, back when I travelled for work frequently. Not by any deliberate action on my part, other than somebody else always has a better price and/or schedule on my trip.
