Idiocy has hit critical mass in San Francisco.

After three Audis, five BMWs, a Mercedes-Benz, a Porsche, and a VW; there is no freaking way I would fly a German plane.

Kim Davis is an elected Democratic official. Ignorance is rife.

I really appreciated this article, but have one small question. Are the headlight reflectors and settings symetrical from side to side? I’ve seen diagrams of light patterns from cars that indicate that driver and passenger side reflector patterns are distinct in order to minimize the light thrown into the eyes of…

A buddy of mine had one to keep miles off his S2000 and save gas relative to his Sequoia. I think it had about 100K miles when he sold it. It spent a fair amount of time in the shop, although the only problems that happened when I was riding in it were a dead battery that required some underhood shenanigans to access,…

CARB’s Cap and Trade carbon plan includes quotas on gasoline sales. Starting last January, they sell allotments to gasoline providers, who in turn pass the billion dollar a year invisible tax on to consumers. Their plan is to reduce gasoline quotas by 50% over the next few years, at which point the working classes…

Because CARB and Sacramento are behind the high prices, not providers of gasoline.

This should serve as a lesson for people that take Car and Driver too sersiously. I’m not a PT hater. They had great packaging, delivering lots of utility to go with their distinctive style. Still, I’m guessing that Vibe and Matrix owners were much happier when their warranties ended, whether they kept their cars or…

I lived in Chelsea, the gay enclave of Manhattan in 2001. Lots of people there took style very seriously, and there were two PT Cruisers parallel parked on every block. I’m guessing lots of the owners have forgotten all about it when cocktail party conversation turns to cars.

The reason there are no competitive single cars teams is testing limits. By having multiple cars, teams get to share data between their cars’ allowed test days. I’m not certain what creates more competition. JGR, Stewart-Haas, Hendrick, Penske and Roush have the resources to be at the top of the sport. If they were…

MWR deserved to lose their sponsors over race fixing, as did Penske. Still, I’d love to see it become a burr in Brian France’ side that his clown of a color man is pointing to the Chase as a cause of the demise of his team.

Work with me here. If my version grows some legs, France will be caught between having to admit that the chase is bad for the sport or getting Michael off the air. Either would improve the sport.

I worked for a company that was on the bleeding edge of this shitty approach to customer service abuse enabling in the early ‘90s. We sold consumer electronics and created a class of dirtballs that scammed us shamelessly in the knowledge that the owner never wanted an unhappy customer, even if that ‘customer’ milked…

The real news here is that the Chase has killed a 3-car team. Next move’s all yours, Brian France!

Probably not this guy.

Infield grass killed Greg Moore. I couldn’t believe it when tracks didn’t rip it all out after his accident.

I’m torn on this incident, since I think the move was excessive while Alex was taking a SLOW defensive line instead of racing to the checker. On the other hand, if you watch top level sedan racing anywhere in the world, this move would be considered pretty normal. Check out what goes on in the UK, Germany and…

There does seem to be lots more reality in liberal enclaves like Baltimore, Chicago, and Oakland than you’ll ever be confronted with somewhere with a conservative majority.

My friend’s father sat in a first class section with him for a flight during the peak of his wrestling career. He said Toombs in person was a completely normal, soft-spoken man of some substance who spent the trip discussing the stock market. Was that your take on him too?

We looked at a CTS V-Sport to replace the company’s A6. There are so many things in the interior of the Cadillac that you have to see and touch that would never make their way into a Honda Fit that make asking Audi prices for the CTS seems like a joke. Charging $80 for a Taco Bell steak chimichanga doesn’t recreate…
