Nice initials. Made me think of this...

So Torch does an article on a torch?  Nice. 

This is true. The new Supra sucks at being a Supra too.

The sad thing is I remember when I liked Infiniti cars, but since they Q’d all the cars I have not liked anything they have done or been highly disappointed by it. Also I can’t recommend buying a $45k or so Infiniti knowing full well in 2 years it is a $21k Infiniti. They depreciate quite hard. A similar Lexus would

I agree with everything you said. I’d prefer it to be without the hybrid tech so it would be lighter and the torquey Turbo 4 from the Type R would be plenty to have a lot of fun.

Sorry to hear you are going. I hope the site doesn’t seem to go to hell in your abscence. I have seen a disturbingly higher amount rather anti-car or you are killing the planet type stuff rather than about the enjoyment of cars of all kinds. I wish you the best in all you are doing.

Am I the only one who saw Crystal Meth, Florida, not Crystal River?  It would fit, being Florida.

We love your stories, keep them coming.

I’m still waiting for the all-new “Toyota” Supra. Let me know when Toyota builds one of those.

Saying “Hellcat Onesie” makes me feel all weird. I understand your uneasiness towards it.

It’s like some bad 70's wedge design grafted onto a truck in a post-apocalyptic vision of the “future”. That is one ugly “truck”. I didn’t think the current Silverado could be beat in terms of ugliness, boy was I wrong.

Next rental car is the best it can hope for.  Most likely it isn’t even going to be that.  It’s a big “meh” for me.

I increased my carbon footprint while riding my bike too...

One could say you are increasing your carbon footprint with those GT500/GT350R carbon wheels, hmm?

Yeah that’s not a Mustang. It looks nothing like one. If they took the actual Mustang body and made it an EV then yes that would be. This looks more like a Taurus based CUV-EV. In fact Taurus EV would have been a better name for this. Other than the poorly grafted on Mustang taillights it looks nothing like a Mustang

Looks like a Taurus in the front with a Mustang taillights section in the back. I would leave the Mustang name off the car, it’s not a Mustang. It would be fine if they just called it the Ford Mach E. Mach E somewhat sounds like Marky. How about the Ford Marky mark?  Ford Mahk E?

The Prelude was a cool sporty car in the 80's. My neighbor had a red Prelude Si with 4WS so that made it “really cool” to me as a kid. I still like them but the money they tend to go for in good condition is a little silly.
