You’re right, there’s nothing wrong with driving a stock Miata. But the thing is, we all know the Miata is brilliant. It’s like the default answer anyone gives you when you ask what cheap, fun car you should buy. So many car enthusiasts drive Miatas and race Miatas that even those of us who like Miatas can get a bit ti…

Exactly. We can’t all have the Mona Lisa, but that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate it.

I don’t care what anyone else says, that indigo and black one is a work of art. That’s one of the most beautiful supercars I’ve ever seen, if not the most beautiful. 

Automotive journalism scholarship!? I want that! I need more information about this!

No, it’s not their holodeck, it’s my holodeck! I let them borrow it way back when, and they still haven’t given the darn thing back to me. Holodecks don’t just grow on trees, you know! It took me a long time to acquire that freaking holodeck, and in my generosity, I let Ford borrow it on the condition that they return…

How many microwaveable burritos can you fit in the glovebox?

Is this a sign that 2020 is running out of ideas? I mean, I guess this is still kinda scary, but in a different way. That’s just weird, 2020. Or perhaps it’s just been such a long year that nothing surprises me anymore.

“To be fair, not every light on the BMW’s dash is illuminated.”

What about us folks who drive cars where heat and A/C are controlled by a single knob so you can’t choose both? Or those of us who drive an old car with heat but no A/C?

1976 Cadillac Eldorado, the official car of chest hair so thick and white that it looks like a cloud trying to escape your shirt.

PFFT gas and electric are a waste, steam is the future. 

Finally. Someone gets it. Someone understands :) 

I do hope affordable new or used electric trucks become available soon. Although I hate electric cars, I genuinely love the idea of an electric truck. That type of drivetrain strikes me as perfectly suited to that particular application. Can’t switch to electric until it becomes affordable, though, and right now it’s…

1. That means it’s not on sale yet, and with Tesla’s track record it’s reasonable to assume there will be plenty of delays. 2. That’s an extremely impractical truck. There’s a reason nobody wants angled bed sides like that. I’m talking about a truck that would actually be useful, like maybe a Rivian.

That minivan looks so good I want one with a Hemi in it. Muscle minivan... That’ll show the minivan haters!

A world where you must tell the world, “Yeah, I bought a minivan, you got a problem with that!? YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME? SUCK EGGS, SUV DRIVERS!”

Especially when you realize a minivan with the third row folded down has about as much cargo space as a pickup bed, without being exposed to the elements.

And if you have a family of four or five, you can fold down the third row, giving you a massive expanse of usable cargo space. It’s like an enclosed pickup truck back there. Our Honda Odyssey has a roof rack but we’ve never had to use it because everything we could possibly want to bring with us on a road trip fits…

That’s a good idea. I grew up riding around in an Odyssey. Best family car ever built.

You, sir, just opened the floodgates. I care very, very much about cars that get a bad rap and don’t deserve it.
