As the owner of an actual “sand colored” 2003 Corolla, I find this whole spectacle somewhat bewildering.

It’s a beige Tundra. Looks were the last thing the owner was concerned with.

Those things usually rub the paint enough to damage it more than a few rock chips...

And then you take it off and the paint underneath is nice and shiny, but the rest of it is faded, cracked, and looks like shit.

I do miss old Toyota pickups. Always thought they looked badass in a kind of subtle way. I’ve lusted after a clean 89-95 for a long time, and now finally actually live somewhere that they exist. I’m hunting for the perfect SR5 22re 5 speed 4x4. I’ve seen mileage anywhere from 150k to 530k on craigslist.

Why do people put those stupid bra things on the front end? Yeah it protects the paint, but what’s the point of keeping the paint looking nice if it’s wearing that fugly shit all the time?

Very impressive feat no doubt. The big question is how did he have 16 Tundras when they only started producing them in 2000? He bought a new one every year? Having 16 Toyotas over a lifetime makes sense but, something smells fishy about that claim!

I tell you what, that swastika was certainly unexpected.

He’s got issues because he loves to masturbate? It is so sad that you think that...

Well, if I had a lot to love, I might also treat it with that kind of attention.

That’s not how California goes bankrupt.

Alternate theory: He was showing off his “summon feature” and did not look at what he was doing, crashed it himself, and is now trying to find some way to blame anyone but himself.The phrase “Hey, bro watch what I can do with my car” may or may not have been involved.

Seriously. All the “hipster” hate around here lately from the young writers (I think Andrew had it in a headline simply because the guy in question had a beard and a flannel shirt) is highly amusing to me.

The point Justin is trying to make is valid (this is just a corporate cash grab) but what does it have to do with…

I know why the exist!

I see your point, but at least that front end is honest. Look at all the cars who make that slim-looking grill, barely a slit. Then they put that ugly black slab of plastic underneath, like nobody would notice.

Smart is a failure, and you want Mini to emulate that? All for half a foot? Mini is still the most successful small car on the market, and they’ve built a brand out of a model, a line out of an idea. Give them a little fucking credit for still producing a fun, small car FFS.

I guess this is not a real Volkswagen since Volkswagen is only supposed to make rear engined air-cooled vehicles. I guess Volkswagen should have started a new brand when they went to water-cooled FWD vehicles.

The Mirage is trash and the Fiesta and Corsa are not premium vehicles. BMW took over the brand and made it premium. Deal with it.

Christ, what an asshole.
