Thank you for pointing out the inanity of that "sleekness to the body" line. Even though the "grounded to the ground" drivel is arguably stupider, The sleekness comment makes me mumble something offensive every time.

Or for $2.50 more, you could get a bit driver that will actually be useful:

$81.16, 91 octane@ $4.40/ gallon, Costco the day before prices jumped $0.20/ gallon. East Bay, CA.

I've never asked my mechanic to show me the parts, but he does every time. Sometimes I hang out while he's doing the repairs and watch so I can learn how to do it myself. He doesn't mind at all (and doesn't seem to give any fucks about liability either).

He seems like a nice guy and all, and props for doing it yourself, but still. It's fucking hideous. You know you've gone down the wrong custom car path when your wheels and paint job were each more expensive than your car was worth to begin with. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

#3 is extremely unlikely since it also had had SS keys. Any cheapskate who tries to impress his friends with fake badges is probably also cheap enough to remove the badges before returnig the car. But even then, how would it end up with SS keys?

I raise you the International XT.

I saw a woman eating breakfast while driving. Not exciting, except it was on a dinner plate, and she was using a knife with one hand and a fork with the other while balancing the plate between her boobs and the steering wheel.

Yeah, but the exhaust on this wagon is worse. There's a reason we call it "excremento" (Sacramento, that is).

"While it's pretty likely Woolery was drunk, Arkansas law doesn't allow DUIs to be issued for non-motorized vehicles, according to the report"

Awesome looking product. I'm going to order one right away. Thanks for the tip!

My dad had one of those before GM yanked them back, and he loved it. Never had a problem, and it was quite fast.

I just got the Samsung S3, and everytime I hold it up to my ear, the person on the other end can hear themselves. Same for speaker. So I use a headset, but not in public. I actually have 2, one for the car and one for my home office. Both cheapo Plantronics, both work just fine. I'm also concerned (not paranoid) about…

Yep. I knew I'd seen it somewhere. The house is incredibly cool, but the guys who built it were so insufferably annoying with their over the top steampunk, everything has to have a fanciful backstory nonsense.

The reviews are pretty funny.

I know it's possible to defeat The Club, but unless for some reason the thief really, really wants your particular car, he'll probably just move to the next Honda down the street. Most car thiefs pick the low-hanging fruit, and if your neighbor's car is easier to steal, they'll usually take it instead.

That's cool. You'll probably want the cloth or hose-able interior. But it's nice to have the choice, isn't it?

#2 made me laugh. It's RAYCESS, but true. The only thing weirder? An Asian woman.

Why can't people who drive trucks have leather? Just because you have to haul or tow stuff doesn't mean you're a construction worker covered head to toe in mud.
