AngryExWife is a special education teacher and I can tell you that when parents bring in one of these, the goal changes from “Helping the child” into “Not getting sued”. If you don’t need one, don’t do it. And if you do need one, move to a better school district.

You mention 2001 A Space Odyssey but don’t put it on the list? The first 23 minutes of the movie has no dialog - just grunting monkeys and floating space ships - and it’s magnificent!

This would get you a free ride on the toll roads in Virginia.  NP.

Unless it was mine.  Then you’d see them all capped off the the choke wired open.

I was thinking Turbo LS swap and drag slicks.

I thought I knew how to be a good parent until I became a parent.

It’s a Corvair.  It might spontaneously roll over onto someone.

It’s Craigslist.  Offer $2000 for the item.

EV’s are disposable. By the time one depreciates to the point that a lower income individual can afford it, the battery will need a replacement which will cost more than the car is worth.

Do not want.

The train should have swerved.

This is great news. Now I don’t need to save for my kids college because they can borrow all they want and then beg for forgiveness.

Free stuff for everybody!

Near me a few years back a family in a Honda Civic was rear ended by a drunk in a work zone. When I got to the head of the backup, the helicopter had just left with the parents while their kids dead bodies were still pinned in the flattened car. The cops and EMTs were just standing there with the heads down. It was…

My kids ride in a 9000 pound battering ram.  The crumple zone is everything else.  And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Sir Mix-A-Lot - Carz

I’ve been putting off everything on my ‘97 540i because I bought it with the intent to LS swap it. But at this point the oil leaks and misfires are so bad that the car is undrivable and I haven’t even started building the new engine.

Unless you’ve driven one of these, it’s way slower than you think it is. The 2.5 YZ and XJ struggle just to maintain the speed limit.

Automatic transmissions are the only thing I’ve ever completely disassembled and still had no clue how they work.  They really are black magic.
