Years ago in my dumb ol’ early 90s push-rod Pontiac I used 89 octane. There was no variable valve timing, and barely even a computer on that engine. 89 just made the engine feel smoother and gave me a few more miles per gallon compared to 87. Going up to 91 wasn’t any different than 89 though, so I didn’t put that in.

Somewhere between quarter tank and the light coming on. Before I worked from home it was easy to just wait until the light came on because there were multiple gas stations along my commute.

Uh-oh, I wonder what Jason’s new friend, the angry Tesla lawyer, will have to say about this!

I disagree, it’s basically the costume he wore in the comics. I love that the live action movies are hewing closer to their comic book roots instead of trying to achieve some sort of “realism,” I think he looks like a true superhero now.

If these images were accompanied with the headline, “The 2022 Toyota Rav-4: This is It” I would shrug my shoulders and scroll the next story.

Those fog lights remind me of the Flux Capacitor

Is that Kristen Bell? What’s that from?

There was a video a few years ago of an old woman spraying her windshield with gasoline, and the other customers and attendants started yelling and rushed over to stop her. IIRC she was an immigrant from some former eastern block country, and they used diesel as a way to keep their windshields from freezing because a…

I am 100% with you on every aspect of your comment. I’m a Disney history and theme park nerd through-and-through. We make the 10 hour drive every year to WDW. I could name all of Walt’s “Nine old Men”, or every Imagineer who worked on the Haunted Mansion and what they did; but nostalgia for the Goofy Movie, or getting…

I’ve seen that done with foam packing peanuts as well.

They still live in the suburbs though, they don’t live in the middle of town.

Well remember that in Lancaster County PA, you have the towns of Blueball, Bird-in-Hand, and Intercourse!

As soon as I saw the title I was about to say “Street Road!” as a proud PA native. But....you beat me to it.

I really wanted a Nismo Juke (or even just the regular Juke, it still had a 190hp turbo engine) because I actually liked the weird sci-fi styling. But it would’ve been my daily driver, so I wanted an automatic for rush hour traffic*. Having a CVT shut that down real quick, so I went with the Kia Soul! instead.

Speaking of V8's, are you guys going to cover the new Lexus IS F Sport? Cramming a big V8 into a little luxury sedan might be going out of style, but Toyota is doing it anyway.

Holy crap! I haven’t thought of that song in years....

I think these peoples’ minds would explode if they ever went to Dragon*Con!

There’s a lot of hypercars like that for me. They all look like off-brand McLarens, have only slight differences in stats, are just rich people toys..... and just seem soulless and lacking in anything that makes them stand out.

Back then I didn’t yet understand the limitations of video games, so anything seemed possible. I still vividly remember, in one retroactively hilarious example, spamming my starter sword in front of an NPC for five minutes trying to impress him enough to give me the powered-up White Sword he had sitting out. (In…
