I think it once took me almost an hour to blindside back into a dock on a Mack R series with a dual stick Maxitorque transmission and no power steering. Even with all the modern conveniences, it’s can still be tough to back into a space. Respect for those that have to do it every day and deal with shitty drivers in 4

I’m sure the special snowflakes will find a new self diagnosed disorder to get attention on Facebook.

And located in the most ergonomically vicious place possible. Shorter folks I know driving the Classic had to contort their right arms into unnatural positions to lower/raise the windows.

The Range Rover Classic was lots of fun on road trips. You could have hours long discussions on why buttons, switches, and dial were seemingly placed at random around the vehicle. Exploring the inside turned up a veritable treasure trove of hieroglyphs and other cryptic symbols. Digging through the Rosetta Stone (aka

Get something with sliding doors. Trust me.

Dear Gizmodo,
I think your random word generator has gone wonky again. A really confusing article accidentally about Mark Zuckerberg’s team got mishmashed with a bunch of other random topics got published. You’re welcome.

My three year old toddler just asked, “Is that Mia or Tia?”

I think the cars at the first dealership were window dressing and never meant to be sold.

We realized sliding doors and a low rear tailgate made handling two active toddlers much easier..

Because people are dumb. In a previous article, I commented how my sister in law hangs out with the crowd that are in a perpetual cycle of financial disaster due to their own poor decisions. No one thinks fore than 30 seconds into the future and make stupid inclusive decisions with long term consequences. Gotta

Let’s release 99 red balloons in Lt. Col. Petrov’s honor.

Bedoe’s story reminds me of a stupid. self inflicted GPS fuck up. I was sent to the UAE for a business project. As with all projects planned thousands of miles away, things went off track is short order. Over the course of the next week, it was a constant shuffle between Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Al Ain. The driving

Most trailers have sliding tandems that can redistribute the weight. Have a sliding battery pack to keep the axles weights legal.

Quiet!

Nope,

“Every rental car is a SUV.”

When consulting in the automotive industry, I was shocked at how the techs got screwed over by the dealerships.

Exactly.
