My first car was a 1990 Chevy Astro Van LT with the plush crushed velour. All deep royal blue. Blue plastic on the dash and doors. So much blue. Many a lady friend (meaning maybe one or two) left my testes the same color in the back of that thing.
Won't be long before they invent light covers that change to body color when not in use. Same thing right?
What, no call for a return of rear window louvers?
2014 was supposedly the last year of the 6,000 Ib GWVR vehicle business tax write off. We could pay a huge tax on or our profits to Uncle Sam or replace some badly needed pickups. We needed the pickups anyway.
While most Jalopnik readers are more likely to lower their cars, the buying public demands sedans with all-road…
Yeah +T is adding a turbo to a normally aspirated car. That term is a turbo Volvo enthusiast thing as far as I know. The old SOHC redblock engines are just remarkably easy to do it to.
Eh? I was talking about a long, controlled drift on purpose, not accidental oversteer because of a car flaw. 240s are probably the most controllable drift car I've ever owned, right out of the box, next to maybe a long, low car like a Series 3 Jag XJ6.

Polaris spent a lot of time and money on making…
Welcome to 1994, good old readable Japanese compact car gauges.

I know my physics.
It's Fox News commentary. Fox... News. I don't know where on the dial you could go to make Fox News look liberal...maybe some kind of Aryan Brotherhood podcast?
No, not exaggerating this at all. And yes, business was done without GPS for years, that doesn't mean it isn't more efficient with it. There is a reason that production-per-worker figures have been skyrocketing in the last 20 years. Business was done for 100 years without email and cell phones, so should we not use…
