Hmmmm.... In the first sentence... “6.6-liter Duramax turb-diesel V8". I can’t tell. Did you misspell turd-diesel or turbo-diesel... Though with Chevrolet, you often cannot tell the difference in the long run.

Amusing. So focused on the danger of tow balls, they don’t even bother to mention that a broken tow strap can easily be just a dangerous... and fatal.The navy has a long history of such fatal accidents. Let the Army teach you to do a recovery from the mud correctly - use a tracked armored vehicle weighing at least 30…

I see a 3000GT every now and again, but... it has been years since I’ve actually seen one running instead of being up on blocks.

Letters after your name don’t always mean much. Case in point (and your own direct quote from this guy): “The second problem is that most engines are constructed of aluminum these days which has a much higher coefficient of thermal expansion than the old cast iron structures. Thus, under extremely cold conditions…

LOL. I was all like, “eh, seen this already” until I thought. “Wait, that dude isn’t a Top Gear presenter!”

I would have rather done that than change the failed brake bags on a tractor trailer on the side of the highway at 35 degrees... while laying in a puddle. I stopped doing diesel roadside repair shortly after that.

Is the interior heater working as the temperature rises? That is the quickest way to figure out if your car has a circulation problem or a thermostat problem. Also, it makes a halfway decent emergency radiator. I got tuck in a traffic jam almost 20 years ago with snow falling 2-3 inches per hour. It took 5 hours to…

All I know is... I stepped outside to shovel this morning and screamed “OMG, the heat death of the universe is here!” That first inhale of frigid air kind of hurt when you’re coming out of a house heated to 70/21/294 degrees.

I suspect “Do not drive into the fuel tank of a tractor trailer” is a talk required with every teen, regardless what vehicle they drive. And pray they don’t drive as poorly as my sister, who essentially ruined a car in a crash annually for a decade and a half.

Ah, but grown ups are supposed to know about that “proper time and place” thing. Whining on a car site about a long dead man’s racism isn’t exactly the way to accomplish anything. And complaining about his newspaper on a car site isn’t going to score points, either.

LOL. Newer Accords must have gotten more compact. My 94 is longer than all but the biggest SUVs. I was quite disturbed the day I pulled into the grocery store parking lot and realized my Accord was nearly as long as a much newer Ford Expedition.

Your charts of argument leave out a critical factor - insurance.

Note that in 1941, we were not yet participating in WW2, so we actually have yet to return to wartime production levels.

Good job, freely playing into Trump’s “Fake News” publicity tour. You should probably leave the attempts at satire to people who can at least make meagerly credible claims to be comedians, or at least what the newspaper folks call humorists.

You forget every stint in rehab make you look a year or three older... So Karl Urban can easily pass himself off as a younger Bruce Wayne.

I love XKCD as much as the next tech geek guy, but that does point out a VERY significant thing: at roughly 18,500 BC, it states “Changes in Earth’s orbit mean that more sunlight reaches the polar ice...”

Teleport? So....

We’ve been doing that since aircraft started carrying passengers.

Tesla accidents are sorely under-reported. A week ago, in the Philadelphia area, a white Tesla, probably on autopilot, rear-ended a fire truck on I-95. I can’t help wonder if a new vulnerability is hiding in the dark with the “eyesight” of Tesla vehicles - blindness induced by the flashing lights on emergency vehicles…

Well, if the pothole status of that parking lot is any indication of the road quality around town, the reason why he needs a full set of spare tires at any given time is obvious.
