There’s an RV8 local to me. I’ve seen it like three times - as a current B owner it appeals to me as much as an F does (the F appeals to the current Miata owner in me). 

Have many or any Peugeot 205 GTi’s been imported here? It was a popular car in the British magazines of the 80's and 90's (and still mentioned today), which is the sole reason I know of it. If I was financially able to import a car I’d be sorely tempted by this. Same with the 106 Rallye - I remember reading reviews of…

I had a hat like that - I’d gotten oil all over it working on a car (it was my messy work hat from then on out). It would get more pungent the longer I wore it - the only problem was it was also getting in my hair. Duh! 

Except the change in the show happened well before the election, within a couple of years of the show’s debut (which was 2011).

I may have missed it, but did something happen behind the scenes that caused this show to take a right turn? I watched a chunk of the first season when it first aired, and thought the show was basically a retread of Home Improvement (guy who thinks he’s super manly has implausible job and doesn’t understand women or…

AIUI, the cars had been entered in the auction well before Reynolds died. 

A lot of times it’s not even food poisoning, it’s something like IBS or a food allergy. I have a coworker who’s claimed he has “food poisoning” a couple of times, and he refuses to think it might be IBS or maybe even just not eating junk food every single day (we often have ice cream in the breakroom fridges - we get…

I wouldn’t necessarily consider it a trait exclusive to poor people. I have family who farm, none of whom are at poverty levels (albeit not wealthy either - decidedly middle class I guess). There’s always something interesting or old in the barn or an outbuilding, always being held on to “in case we need it”. When…

A lot of times it’s something like the usual “I’ll get to fixing it up someday” and someday never comes. A frequent story the car gets parked is because something goes wrong and it’s too expensive to fix at the time (remember that a lot of old cars that are expensive now we’re just used cars for years), and they get…

This is offensive to both penises and men named Richard. 

No, it was vintage beardy Bruce. He’s literally introduced by some tertiary character (I believe it was supposed to be a record exec or something) as “So, this is my friend, Bruce”, and Bruce says “Hey” and waves. I mean this literally - it was a few seconds at best but I thought “Hey, that’s early seventies…

I felt the best lookalike was Alice Cooper. And the three second shot of Bruce Springsteen. (Who was clearly meant to be in the next season)

I always thought that it was the anti-funny messaging that got Last Man Standing canceled, not it’s pro-man slant.

Old Japanese cars basically dissolved if you lived anywhere it snowed. This lasted until the mid to late 90's - by then the manufacturers had sort of figured things out. My folks had a couple of 90's Hondas that lasted pretty well. But anything from the 80's and earlier....those things just melted before your eyes.…

Accurate-ish.

That said, I thought Vinyl was still super fun to look at.

Look, it’s nearing the end of the season anyway, get the motor rebuilt (or rebuild another one), and here’s your Moab ride next year. Drop whatever engine you have lying around that’ll fit in the post office Jeep, and use it to do donuts in the parking lot of the local mall. 

I feel I should clarify that it’s not the fact that she just cruises around in it that I find funny (I daily a Miata and I don’t spend all my time at WOT and attacking every corner, which to some people is a waste), or the fact that she bought it because she liked the looks and it’s easier for her to drive than the…

You should find a really early episode of Barney Miller, and wait till you see Theodore J. Flicker’s name appear. It has to be an early season, though, like the first or second. 

That sounds like my aunt - until about a year ago she had a Camaro (fifth gen, maybe a 2011? She had a fourth gen before that. Both V-6's.) and she’s probably only 5'4". She had to sit on cushions to see out of the damned thing - she finally got rid of it because as she ages she’s shrinking and cant’ keep adding…

I like to use Vince Klortho, myself.
