The Belcher family wagon has previously been depicted somewhat ambiguously, and only recently has the Mopar F-body design been settled on. I think last night's episode, Li'l Hard Dad, has the best, most definitive view of the car seen to date. It's a 1976-1979 Plymouth Volaré wagon, no doubt. You can almost smell that…

Yup. I recall my Father insisting that "timing belts were a scam" and having my Mother continue driving her 84 Prelude until the belt snapped. Many bent valves. Of course, he then thought "They're trying to scam me into buying a new cylinder head" and insisted the shop just put on a new belt.

So I took to Craigslist and I quickly discovered the perfect vehicle: a 1980s Mercedes-Benz E-Class, complete with a bad transmission, rust issues, and 250,000 miles, listed for five hundred bucks. If that didn't work, I found another car that was just as good: a worn out Volvo 240 at the end of its life for about the…

Buttons: This is likely a leaky vacuum line. The vents (aside from the oreo-equipped vents) flow is controlled by vacuum actuators that require negative pressure to work. Usual culprit is a split in the vacuum hose at the manifold in the engine bay. Unfortunately for you, I drove the ZX today so I can't take a…

My best advice to you would be to get the Bentley Manual for this car. It may as well say "Don't Panic" on the cover. I too share the wiring pain - pre-88 Volvos have biodegradable insulation on the wiring. Dave Barton makes replacement harnesses out of durable wire, I'm waiting until mine reaches >50% point-to-point…

ITT: People conflating "Daily Drive" with "drive into the ground without maintaining".

Sounds like your heater petcock has seized open.

I have two 1987 cars: My Volvo 245 for crummy weather or cargo, or my 300ZX T for nice days (T-Tops!). Both RWD 5-speeds.

If by cut off, you mean removed at the root. And if removing it significantly reduced the sense of touch.

Neutral: How Long Will You Keep Your Car? Does it feel old already?

Split shot doesn't have anything to do with fat content. Split shot means half the shots (of espresso, shots don't mean anything but espresso) are caffeinated, half decaf. This is because of the beans used, not any process undertaken at the machine.*

Or how "Organic" and "Gluten-Free" make things healthier for everyone!

This guy reminds me of most of the Jalop writers, honestly.

As a barista, anything a customer says to you has a very high probability of actually not meaning anything. I recall making one customer a "skinny breve no shots latte" which they sent back because it didn't taste like coffee. That's what specifying "no shots" gets you, lady. Or making Matcha lattes for customers and…

Even if you just had dinner and you smoke the pot, all of a sudden these neurons that told you to stop eating become the drivers of hunger

Usually the same guy that goes "I'M IRISH IT TAKES A LOT TO MAKE ME DRUNK" then passed out and pisses himself 2 hours into the party.

Why is that guys face so small? Where does he store nuts and seeds?

This Dust... Is it settling on things that have passed puberty?

Morango? (Strawberries) My Portuguese is rusty. Desculpe.

Or just get a Volvo 240. It comes with a smartphone shelf that they designed into the car before they were a thing.
