I was driving on a military base when I got pulled over about 150 ft past an intersection where I had been stopped at a red light. The MP walks up and tells me that he clocked me at 67 mph (in a 25 zone). I explained to him that there was no way that my 2001 Saturn station wagon could have been going that fast that

My dream car. I keep telling myself “Someday”.

It helps to have a juvenile/intellectual sense of humor to enjoy RCR. That being said, I’ve been enjoying his videos for quite a while. If I want to know facts about the cars, I can watch any number of other Youtubers. If I want to UNDERSTAND the cars, I will watch RCR.

The only car secret I know is the obscenely fun roads in the Driftless Region in SW Wisconsin. You have to turn off the numbered roads (state highways) and off the lettered roads (county roads) and get on the ones with actual names. The back country roads. There you’ll find dozens, if not hundreds of near hairpin

When I was a kid I remember my mother once borrowed her sister-in-law’s car and I watched her fight that steering column for a good 10 minutes trying to get the keys out. Eventually she gave up and called my dad. Ilearned more than a few new words in that 10 minutes.

If they could find a way to cut their prices on some of their models by about 1/2 they might have a chance. Broke(ish) young peope can’t afford to finance a toy.

I get that it’s rare and low mileage and all, but $49k?! Good luck with that, buddy.

My 2004 Taurus only started acting up this year. When I start the car in sub-zero weather, the tach needle sits at 0 rpm and vibrates. Once even the speedometer did this even though I was parked. I’m assuming that some circuit board that runs the gages is giving up the ghost. Also, I get a low brake fluid warning for

Congratulations on both your victory and getting yourself out there. The inertia of depression is a bitch. Good on you for fighting through it.

Congratulations! The PAO and the Figaro are just about the coolest little cars I’ve ever seen. I’m hoping to get one of Duncan Imports’ Figaros in the next year or two. God bless that man for making those available here in America.

Replace at least one of my vehicles. I neeeed something interesting to drive.

You guys need to unhook your enthusiast brains for this one. In America, there are a few brands that, when the car is clean and in good shape, make you look like you’ve got money. BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Lexus, Jaguar, Land Rover, Porsche, and anything Italian except Fiat. I left out Rolls and Bentley because most people

According to their report, the only reason the car got 0 stars is because the seatbelt reminder for the front passenger is listed as “optional equipment.”I mean, obviously the car’s a shitbox, but seriously? 0 stars for that? The driver can’t be relied on to just tell them to put it on? It’s their own life they’re

Always. It helps to build a mental profile of who they are so that I can better guess what they’re going to do on the road. I also do it to confirm if someone looks as stupid as they drive.

I had a 2001 LW300 for a few years. It was... zippy. Yeah, I’ll go with that. It wasn’t fast by any stretch of the imagination, but it could get to 35mph fairly quick. The interior was a nonstop orchestra of creaking plastic. But it did have a DVD player (that never worked). All in all, it was an OK car. One could

I’m so glad that I’m not the only one dealing with this dilemma. I’m 34 and never really learned manual. We just didn’t have one when I was learning to drive. I was actually planning on getting myself a learner beater next spring. I didn’t really consider a pickup. I’ll have to keep my eyes open for one.

At 10 AM to wife: “One of the headlights is out on the truck. I’m going to go change the bulbs real quick. I’ll be right back.”

My car is a beige 04 Taurus. Other than the crumpled driver’s side rear quarter panel from when I pulled out in front of someone, not much stands out. My truck is, thankfully, uncommon. There’s not many 06 Dakotas with a club cab left out there.

$3800 seems to be a good price point for a “Eh, not too bad” kind of car on Autotrader. This fits the bill. Nice Price.

Donate the Olds. There are many people out there who desperately need reliable transportation and can’t afford it. I say build up some good karma by passing it on to someone who’s life can really be improved and find something truly on the way to the scrapper to destroy.
