Thankfully they had awesome British cars like the Reliant Robin that couldn’t even manage a fourth wheel, and let’s not forget about the Morris Marina, one of the worst cars ever made in any country. Glass houses and all that. 

He said early on that the Caddy and Mini share front wheel drive. That's a laugh. 

Rich old guys buy these cars. Rich old guys either don’t care to or don’t know how to shift their own gears. The vast majority of these cars are bought as fashion accessories. The manual going away should be surprising to no one. Rich people are used to having people do things for them. You don’t think they are going…

Death to Manuals!

The real tragedy here is Michael himself. He was surrounded by yes-men and an entourage of people who instead of protecting him from his self-destructive behavior (including his sexual abuse of minors), endorsed his behavior by hiding and protecting him from the consequences of it. It’s those people who are attracted…

That’s like saying- my plastic bottle is just a tiny portion of plastic garbage patch, why are you stopping me from throwing it into the ocean?

Germany’s Autobahn highways is a lot like the gun debate here in America

Honestly I’d be happy if they made lifts illegal.

Let me guess, your tall 4x4 got a loud exhaust ticket?

Of course, the 12 or so invidious cretins who hacked their way beyond the “please don’t drive here” signs were probably not off-road enthusiasts. If you took a close look at the tracks left over ancient now-destroyed vegetation, I bet you’d find a lot of cheap all-season tire tread marks from crossovers and rental…

The problem is Moulton’s district is actually heavily conservative. I’m in his district-my town went for Trump, and we elected a VERY CONSERVATIVE democrat to our statehouse for our district ( Dave Robertson). We have Republican in our state senate ( Bruce Tarr).

I think the wheels are the only part I really like. I’m a sucker for big solid looking luxury wheels. Kind of looks like they took a cue form Maybach’s book with giving their flagship car a totally unique wheel.

No, they’ll rush it to market, with a bunch of compromises and design flaws, sell a bunch the first year, tarnish its name with warranty claims and recalls, watch sales fall off year-by-year while the engineers make incremental improvements to address the flaws, and then five years or so later, when all the quirks are…

GM has regularly had good ideas. But have always screwed those ideas by what I call “The General Morons (GM) Thought Process.”

It’ll be 10 years ago next week since I sat in a hotel room while on vacation in Vegas and watched the news that GM was filing for bankruptcy. I had just spent a good chunk of my savings on Christmas presents for my family, and it felt like the floor was removed from under me. For the next 6 months, we watched closed…

What about all seasons with the 3peak snowflake certificate, are those okay?
