All cars were slow and mediocre from this era. If speed and handling are what you desire then anything from the malaise era is a really bad idea.

I am pretty worried this will just become standard as they push the “flat” rate higher and higher so only the highest-risk drivers take it and everyone else has to have a monitor in their car. I hope I’m wrong. I worry I’m not. 

I have to wonder whether the universe is trying to send me a sign:

I want you all to gather round, shorter folks in front, taller folks in the back.

I’ve owned several Subaru 360's and am of the opinion that no, the Subaru 360 does not have a trunk. It has a pair of parcel shelves, and a spare tire/battery compartment. I think a trunk has to be one of the three boxes, or at the very least capable of carrying something other than parts of the car. If you take the…

If only there was a solution to HVAC and similar controls that didn’t rely on a digital, virtual interface based in these kinds of power struggles. If only...

You can see the greys? I must be on double-secret probation or something.

Modern “conservatives” are not really conservatives in any meaningful sense of the term. They are a poisonous mix of bigots, proudly ignorant, corporate pirates, general tantrumers, and fucking objectivists. They’d rather tear down America than take pride in its achievements and institutions. I’d say they are hellbent…

Six year old cheap used de-studded tires. :SHUDDER:

NP, because I had the Matchbox version of this car and really regret trading it to Eddie Cowen for his Wacky Packages collection.

This car is so ugly that even hiding it in the bushes like they did in the photos doesn’t help...

“Avoid minivans” is terrible advice.

Please tell me you’re a doctor.  Because that’s my kind of medicine.

In Jason’s defense, if someone gives you unlimited bidet access it’s hard to tell them that their new baby’s face looks like an airplane crash in a beaver’s mouth. So, after partaking extensively in the provided boozefest, Jason politely tamed his aesthetic opinions and learned to stop worrying and love the bidet...

Cool car but I’ve seen less beige and cheap plastic in medical equipment:

This makes thematic sense. It’s the caterpillar inside the cocoon. 

The front end looks like I was taking pictures of my dog with a wide-angle lens and he came up and tried to sniff the camera.

From this we can conclude it is not a vision issue but something more serious. That noted taillight fetishist Jason Torchinsky also didn’t take a photo of the secondary taillights suggests that there might be a very serious problem and medical help should be sought.

As a certified extremely nearsighted person, I took off my glasses and rolled to the end of my office to see if being blind would really improve the looks of the buck-toothed grille. Instead of doing so, it actually smoothed it out into what appeared to be the impression of two buttcheeks in a soft sofa. This made it…

Nah, the trunk doesn’t visually work near as well as the Prowler.  People rag on the Prowler enough because of the V6... but now make it uglier?  Yikes.
