Ouch my spelling part hurts.

In CA we only need our cars inspected for smog. They don't care if it as death trap so long as it doesn't polute. I took a 93 Mercury Villager with a terrible pre catalytic converter exhaust leek to a test only station. The guy refused to test it due to the severely polluting leek. I took it to a different test only…

Perfect verse

Crocs are archosaurs. And you are right about avian dinosaurs being dinosaurs. I highly recommend My Beloved Brontosaurus. It rates up there with Plays With Cars in the enjoyable read front.

Can't government regulation also direct this mapping in a less effective direction than one of the many systems being tested elsewhere in the world? I do love the idea of shared data and free market economics. Let's have them battle in Gundams.

My wife and I took our two boys to Kern County Raceway Park for a NASCAR event. We are Christian. During the invocation, the pastor included “thank you Lord for our sponsors” and “thank you for this, the greatest sport on earth.” I looked at my wife in the middle of it and said “This one is not getting an amen.” It…

It seems the data from this would skew toward those brands with owners who seek bumper stickers in general. A percentage should be calculated to be sure VW owners are dumbest. Divide bumber searches by total bumber plus bumper searches for all brands to come up with a percentage error rate.

ECE or DIN in Europe vs SAE horsepower ratings in America. I feel like I nailed it! I’m so proud of myself.

Didn’t SAE revise US horsepower rating regulations like 10 or 15 years ago? My guess is it loses 0 hp and is simply rated using slightly different requirements as I recall US engines magically losing HP when those regulations changed. And they weren’t emissions regulations.

My wife and I were lied to by a police officer selling a car. Gradually learned it was severely wrecked. 02 Corolla. Still one of the most reliable and horrible uncomfortable cars I've owned. It was a smart choice though I surely didn't love it.

My son was to be driven by his grandma the other day. Red light stop green light go. Laid down the law about how driving works when you are with him. He also told me he likes red lights the most. He’s 2.

My mind is blown. People in my town can’t handle a 4 way stop without assuming that the moment their car halts it’s definitely their turn.

I live in California and all hell breaks loose when it rains. Rained yesterday and a Ram smashed nose first into a brick wall not even a half mile from my house. We drive faster with bald tires when it rains. hydroplaning gets you out of danger faster doesn’t it? And wipers just distract your eyes.

Does anyone else think of the “my grandson drives a Miata” from Corky Romano whenever one comes up? Even though they are amazing track cars?

I was just drooling at an F1 last weekend. I prefer the LM you Chose though. Even if the top speed that made it so famous is reduced. I heard some guy at the Peterson call the F1 there tame. It made my skin crawl .

Replacing the idler pulley should be easy but as someone who replaced an idler pulley and manage to break a bolt off on the side of the block of an 02 Ford Taurus I can tell you it can go wrong if you don’t know what you’re doing. Lots of fear, Dremel usage, prayer, and easy outs allowed me to undo my mistake. Along…

I recall riding in a Ford probe that had a digital speedometer maxed out at 88 and would flash after that my dad would always call his speed 88 flash flash. I know for sure the second digit could display anine because it could display 19 and 29 mph fine. What a strange decision from whoever made that speedo.

Staying away from semis is why I rode in the left lane. To pass them.

What if you are passing 80% of the traffic. All of which is in the right lane and are obeying the speed limit. Therefore you are there only to pass. The CA law gets pretty grey there

Amen
