I was a latchkey kid and watched this every sick day. My wife had a sahm and didn’t know it.

I could watch Barker’s cameo in Happy Gilmore 99 times, and laugh just as hard every time.

OK, overpriced FJ40 looks nice and I was willing to consider a Camaro with patina, but when I got to

For me it's either trying to destroy a HiLux or Sabine Schmitz hauling ass around the Nurburgring in a Transit. 

Hard to distinguish between all the awesome specials they produced, but for a single segment, my go-to is Jeremy and the Reliant Robin. Can’t watch it without violent fits of laughter, and I’ve watched it many times... Yes, they messed with the Reliant’s differential to make it easier to roll-over, but it’s still…

The entire Vietnam episode.  That was the peak and everything since has been chasing that high.

Pass! It’s been in an accident. A pretty bad one, too. Severe enough that it knocked the steering wheel over to the passenger side!

There’s minor (probably very minor) speculation that Colin Chapman faked his death and fled for South America before he could be charged for defrauding the British government in the wake of the DeLorean. It’s almost definitely bogus, but it’s the sort of thing where I don’t want to let truth get in the way of a good…

Located at the intersection of “Fiero” and “legend” is Smokey Yunick’s “hot vapor” engine.

It would be really nice on cold days. 

What we uncovered here is actually the groundwork for the next generation Z06: Duramax. Powered by a new 3.0 liter turbodiesel, the mid-engine Corvette C8 will have a stump-ripping 800 lb-ft of torque, and redline at 3,600 RPM.

Where do I input the parameters?

Fun fact that many of Jalopnik’s more urban dwelling readers may not know: Many tractors, floaters (spreaders), and sprayers are level 3 autonomous once they’re in the field.
It starts with planting. You enter parameters for the field and the tractor drives itself (about 99%) and pulls the planter. Then the file goes…

Agco/Allis bought up the White/Oliver agricultural business and pretty sure you are talking about New Idea planters.

Make that 5 — for a while in the 50s, International Harvester made refrigerators. TV viewers with sharp eyes and a knack for seeing weird things other than what the director had in mind as the center of attention will note that one of the apartments on “Friends” had one.

I’d characterize it as an undercurrent rather than a fad.

Yeah, they kind of breezed past that so quickly in a montage that I didn’t even catch it. Probably in service of not wanting to reveal anything about the aliens until you see them close up in the stairwell, but at the expense of coherent logical plot. Also, she says “throats and abdomens, that’s what you aim for”.…

This reminds me of an old parable about engineers versus salespeople.
