I don't think it belongs, just as I don't think equestrian sports really belong or... well you could start going down a dangerous path of what should be included or not included.

I think they jumped the shark with the new 2 door Countryman. That move seems like MINI is spinning out of control with no real goals or direction. I would be interesting for them to come up with a new car that had a different DNA to it, but still had the MINI goal of great driving and quirky attitude... something…

So is it they can't make a car that can beat a 1960s car or that Ragnotti is a bit slower in his more mature years?

Saw him talking about it, sound slow-witted about it. Says he's a car guy and then needs to drive the automatic. Ug.

Am I the only one tired of superheroes fighting the problems they created? Seems like all three of the Iron Man movies are Stark fighting things he had a hand in creating one way or another... he doesn't seem to fight a new, unrelated to his tech, source of power.

How much could you sell of that to get it in a Lemons race? Can you get a rollcage that big?

Not to be sexist but every morning on the way to work I notice girls talking while they drive to work. WTF are talking about at 7 in the freaking morning?

It seems like a non-number line solution would be better represented as a cup, showing it full for a full tank and sliding empty and the tank empties.

I agree, you can't compare car efficiencies from different generations. Even today a dude will build a car in his garage with fantastic gas mileage and exclaim "See I did it! Why can't the big companies do it?"... and forgets to point out the lack of any kind of creature comforts or significant safety equipment or…

It's kind of weird, because they didn't actually do that much to it... seems like a no-brainer.

As a Tribute owner, I'm very disappointed by the evolution of the small SUV. All of the reasons I love the Tribute have disappeared from the market for the most part it seems: 1) The small/tall size, the Escape/Tribute has a compact length that is great for city parking but still has plenty of people space. 2) The E/T…

Yea, I'm not wowed. Doesn't get the testosterone rumbling like the first one.

Is it me or do the front wheels look like they don't quite fit right?

I like it... but apparently that grill isn't just for the crossovers then.

I think you can probably thank the safety gurus for that.

Videos!?!

I think there would have been a lot of badge shenanigans on the Tucker cars.

Really? Are UFOs news at all any more with UAVs now?

Ha! That's pretty awesome actually, Dropped the ball on the front grill tho, could have worked a little harder at grafting a Benz logo on the front...
