Red Fang’s “Wires”. Squarebody Impala wagon destroying shit for no reason whatsoever.

Agreed. That and the auto emergency braking on my 10yo Mercedes are actually very useful. The braking saved my butt when some asshole pulled out without looking. The car was already braking before I got my foot on the pedal. Possibly made the difference between a bit of “code brown” and swapping paint.

The problem with this stuff always seems to be that there’s always a few that just push the boundaries and ruin it for everyone. For instance, most neighbors wound’t get bent out of shape with a car that lives under a decent cover in the driveway. But leave an old rusty Camaro on jack stands for a 6 months – plus the

Yea, and if you’re a person of color, it might not get you pulled over in certain states that will do that type of thing, just for fun.

Here, have a Snickers. You'll be back to normal in a few moments.

I remember people making a big deal about getting to see the bottom of Perez’s car when it got craned off Monaco last year. I wonder if it took a year for the field to correctly copy the floor of the RB.

Maybe its because they aren’t spending as much on their catering budget anymore.... and got restricted on just how much they can eat that has affected them.  IYKYK.

Hold on, hold on, hold on... you want to ban Trucknutz? I’ve been looking forward to a litter of Toyota Tacomas from my 4Runner. How is that going to happen if I remove them from my Tundra?

This. So much this. These guys peaked around 2010 and then it became repetitively boring. I watched the first iteration of Top Gear USA and whilst, it wasn’t a hit with the peeps, for me it was a breath of fresh air. 

If public safety were the #1 priority, we would design roads in a manner that encourages slower driving and automate speed enforcement with cameras. If we really, really wanted people to stop dying on US roadways, we’d invest in public transit, separate pedestrians and bikes from cars, tax vehicles with hoods greater

Except that lower speeds are safer because lower speeds are safer. If public safety enters the picture, the speed limit needs to drop precipitously pretty much everywhere. Like, until we stop allowing trucks to be pedestrian plows, the speed limit anywhere someone might have to cross the street needs to drop to about

I loved my Smart so much I named myself after its parent company. Ok, I guess I named myself after the lady that the company was named after, but you get my point. Still have five of them in my fleet today, including a rare (for the U.S.) diesel.

Or all cars are limited to 85 mph, if you plan to go faster than that you have to manually go into infotainment system and unlock it by agreeing that you are at a track setting, high speeds etc etc. This way there is no excuse that they planned on going dangerously fast, makes it easier to prosecute and everyone can

Me too, because then we might get some fun street cars instead of the current crop of bloated expensive over powered nonsense that’s only good for bench racing.

You’re right about Bullitt, but the They Live fight scene is one of the most glorious things ever put on film. A thrilling and funny celebration of the over-the-top machismo that was prevalent at the time in action movies. I didn’t know it was much mocked and anyone mocking it doesn’t like movies.

Come to Scotland, specifically Ayrshire. We’ve only one pothole, but it stretches from Cumnock all the way to Irvine and the Clyde itself; and I’m not say it is deep, but I swear I passed a kangaroo climbing out of it last week. Since Ayrshire contains Cumnock, Mauchline, Kilmarnock, and Ardrossan, you have missed
