It's possible that no car in history has been named more appropriately than this one.

Two notes of sadness:
1. The snow is not where I am (Michigan - surprisingly). It is however where my folks are (Wyoming).
2. This van is not vacuum-equipped.
Although when I heard about that available feature, I was pretty blown away because the concept seems as obvious as integrating a phone into the car.
I have, and you're right, that isa very different thing to ask for.
I reached out to one of our friends at Tax The Rich for comment and will update if I hear back.
My Mom bought a new Odyssey today. She was definitely on a time constraint as she, my dad, and two siblings are leaving for the Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow and needed the car before then. She test-drove last Saturday, negotiated price via email (she lives 90 miles from the nearest Honda dealer), and let the…
As a result, I propose that we move away from the check engine light and towards descriptive warning signals that explain the car's exact issue. For instance: if you have a loose gas cap, a light comes on that says "LOOSE GAS CAP." If you have a faulty oxygen sensor, a light comes on that says "FAULTY OXYGEN SENSOR."…
That's right, folks: the "check engine" light — a scary, yellow, brightly lit dashboard warning light that implies you have some serious fault with your car's sole method of propulsion — is most commonly caused by not twisting a 3-inch piece of circular plastic far enough.
Cool air cools the brakes, which is cool.
Saw a Subaru Forester from this angle with this grille.
This is a very good point, actually.
This is cool because my grandpa used to have a Fox!
That makes sense, actually. But looking at the picture I posted, it makes it look like the engine is mounted right above the front axle. I guess I need to go poke my head under the hood of an actual LX-platform car.
Still, the whole notion of a FWD with a longitudinal engine melts my brain. Kind of because it seems like more work...
This is probably common knowledge, but I only just learned this summer that the Dodge Intrepid (and its siblings) was a FWD car (which I knew) with a longitudinal engine (which I didn't know). This still blows my mind because I know nothing about engineering.
Aha, true point.
48 Cyilinders, 6 crankshafts, 6 Jaguar E-Type distributors, and one Guinness World Record. Its creator, Simon Whitlock, is completely insane.
The STi is strong with this one.
Oh, I had assumed odometer rollback. But wait, the dealer's never at fault...
But that's not the best complaint that I found. That honor goes to this person, who bought a used "Grand Jeep Cherokee" with some tire issues:
See, normally a KISS-themed Corvette Stingray could be awesome. You just have to go all in. What if it was black and white and covered in stars and spikes and shit, and had an enormous tongue sticking out the front? I could get behind that. But this is just kind of a mess.
