Bowel movements were very boring pre smart phones.

Literally company policy where I work. Ironically, the parking lots at both the head office and main field office are designed to make this impossible, requiring us to back in instead. (Company policy is to pull through if possible, back in it not, only pull in if it is angled parking).

Alright, this one made me laugh. Well played.

For most people, I guess not. But limited slip differentials transform the character of a car when cornering. I would pay for one on anything; I had one added aftermarket to my own vehicle at significant expense. Differentials are one of those things that even car journalists consistently underrate. It can be…

I mean, friends and family are still getting notices to not carry passengers in their front seats until the recall is performed...and then told there are no loaners and the recall cannot be performed for 6-12 months. So ‘finally coming to a close’ is still a reach :-)

No limited slip diff in the Sport though :-(

Cheapest way to get two doors, 300 horsepower and a sweet ZF 8 speed transmission. I have been toying with getting a loaded AWD model-new.

Sell the '04 XJR and get a more reliable land yacht.

Goodness gracious Gordon. This is the writing I come here for.

Winter is when I am allowed to embark on significant work on the summer car. Because winter is long, and I don’t know what I’m doing. 

The black storage bags are. Thankfully when I see them parked in the grocery store lot they aren’t deploying them. 

Wait, wait. If you overland without a shiny new rooftop tent, does it even count? How would anyone know that you overland?

I was really shocked when I rented a Highlander with cloth, non-power seats and it came with radar cruise control, lane departure warnings, etc.

A thought:

You should google ‘Chuckwagon Races’. Very fun to watch. 

Of course, our mayor is multifaceted. He turned around and pushed HARD for the Olympics, which would have cost the city (and province, and country) billions, because the biggest shares of those billions would have been spent by the province and feds, not the city. He is smart, but can be a real asshole. He can stand…

One thing to remember-that 370Z is WAY smaller than the Mustang. This is a double edged sword in a lot of ways, of course, but it is 20" shorter and 200 lbs lighter. The Z is essentially FRS dimensions...with a way, way bigger and more powerful engine and an extra 600 lbs.

I dunno, I always liked Maggie’s Z-almost as much I liked her writing.

This is why I’m glad Canada uses Kijiji, this functionality is built in

The 11foot8 bridge has finally gone too far.
