I like your post. But I am bias as I just bought an 88 Fiero GT. It is slow as molasses bit I love this freaking thing. Gimme 300HP and I would not want another 2 seater ever. I do plan to swap it. Just not the LS or SBC. I want to do the newest version of the engine trans combo that is in it now. A 3.9 Chevy v6 withe…

You can develop a high hatch for the back, square it off at the end and call it a shooting brake and then it will be the bees knees!

If i could star this comment a thousand times I would. COTD for sure. 

Losing 2nd place in Truck Sales to FCA, losing in pony car sales to FCA.... I know GM as a whole is doing just fine... for now, but losing such important sales is suffering.

Chevy really needs to fire its designers, the vehicles they are making are not “edgy” they are “ugly”. The Camaro, just keeps getting uglier. The trucks have not looked good for over a decade. Chevy has taken this ridiculous giant grill theme to almost all of their cars. It is just plain ugly. Then add in all the…

2019 Kia Soul! the “!” is important. Turbo! dependable, lots of room, sporty, brand new with warranty. Fun to drive!

As always I enjoy the Morning Shift, However lately it feels like the shift is stuck in the same 3 gears, Autonomy news; While this is the future and can be exciting it doesn’t warrant everyday reporting in 2 “gears”, Renault/Nissan/Ghosn; again, every day.. throw in the FCA/ Renault, multiple gears a day usually, GM…

yes but that is still FIAT Chrysler... so it is still in there.

Dont forget Carmel which is also just west of Fishers just north of Indianapolis. So that makes it 4 in the Indy area.

Carb Day is a hold over from the days of carburators where they would make last minute adjustments. Now it just means last practice. If you have never been, it is also a day of drunken debauchery that includes several hours in the burning sun the Freedom 100 race all capped off by a concert usually with a band…

Damn right that deserves a banner. First time in NFL history (in the time this statistic has been tracked)

Went to a car show last week, it was mostly muscle cars. But there was a Lancia, VW Ghia, VW Thing, some radwood Jettas, Some nice 50's trucks, 80's pickups, and MG. even a Scion. I was more excited about the Lancia and Ghia then the novas, Chevelles, Stangs, and Corvettes. A good car show will have something for all.…

Im sure someone has done a LS4 in one by now right? If pulled from a Grand Prix it could still stay “Pontiac"

Under the current tax laws filing a W-2 would not be able to write off things like car value, maintenance, fuel, cleaning, candies for passengers, etc. Filing a 1099 allows these write offs. Being an employee filing a W-2 in this type of job would be a detriment to these drivers. If they don’t like their pay, don’t do…

There is nothing in Lordstown Ohio but GM and some small businesses that rely on that plant for business. Take the relocation and look for a job elsewhere. Staying “semi-local” will not work. Lordstown will be Ghosttown, might as well get your foreclosure started sooner than later so that you can get to repairing your…

Apologies, I was responding to your assessment that on min wage you can afford a new car, not the article. I still say you can not afford a new car on minimum wage. And as the article states the student debt crisis also makes it to where min wage does not work. Even modest loans are a couple hundred a month.    

We…

Sorry there is no way a $7.50 per hour worker can afford a $16,000 car. In case you are confused of what Minimum Wage is... That equals about $16,000 per year pretax working 40 hour weeks. Call it $10500 after taxes. $10500 does not even get you a cardboard box to live in on the bad side of town.

Why do we Americans need to make up new car categories... I mean really, the Aussies have had these things for years, they are called Utes. We even had them from the late 60's to the 80's in the Datsun, Dodge, Chevy, Ford, Subaru and VW verities. Then again in the 00's from Subaru.

The problem is they flushed the name away on this:

They need to start buying Domino’s Pizza https://www.pavingforpizza.com/ They can then be as fat as us and eat bad food! But they get some free pothole repairs!
