My best friend in college had one just like the picture. This was in 2003, so it was an older car then. But he loved it. Drove it to death. Put two huge subs and a terrible amp in it, it sounded awful.

Some friends invited me to go catfishing one night. Like, not what most people think of when you say, “catfishing”, but actually fishing for flathead and channel catfish in the Ohio River. One of the best traditional baits for catfish is chicken livers. I had bought a small tub of them, and after that night, I’d came

The overall shape is fine for a sport CUV - I mean, they all kinda look the same at this point, cars like the DBX and Levante, etc. But what I can’t stand are the weird openings in the wheel arches and front grill. They’re like...you know if you have a larger plastic toy car, like a Barbie Corvette or something like

Quite a few vehicles sporting nameplates that have long been forgotten in the states, are still being produced in various other markets.

The Chevrolet Tracker, S10, Montana, Cruze, and Cavalier names all live on, mostly in Latin America/China. The Dodge Neon exists as a rebadged Fiat Tipo. And Ford still makes the

Don’t forget about the two-door version:

Yesterday I re-learned that the Dodge Dakota existed (it was mentioned in a random Doug Demuro video that played through while I was cleaning out my garage):

Yesterday I re-learned that the Dodge Dakota Convertible existed.

I knew someone in college with one. It's basically a Ford Probe.

One of my first vehicles was a Shadow. It was...well, it was a K-car, but compared to other compacts of the time, it wasn't terrible. The neatest thing about it was that it looks like a three-box sedan, but it's actually a hatchback. Made it surprisingly versatile for its size.

Long loan terms aren’t necessarily a bad thing if you can keep your interest low. It’s the combo of an 84-month loan and 10+% interest that is the problem. That pretty much guarantees you’ll be underwater the entire life of the loan.

I mean, it safely follows all current design trends, much as they’ve done for 40 years.

Lexus LM:

I discovered that if I move the front passenger seat all the way forward, remove the head rest, and then lean the seat all the way back in my Chevy Cruze hatch, you can create a rather large “cargo” area. Removing the headrest isn’t the simplest thing, since they kinda don’t want you to because it’s a safety feature,

Of the more hardcore off-road pickup truck offerings, I feel like the Ram 2500 Power Wagon is the most honest. No, it doesn’t have the bragging numbers of the TRX or other BD-energy bro-dozers But it’s more capable than your basic tire-and-lift package, comes with plenty of usable features, and can do real work. It’s

Modify your thinking. You are your vehicle’s most important accessory.

For the same reason people wear North Face jackets and Under Armour athletic wear to the grocery store - it says, “I have an active lifestyle that I spend money on”.

HD Tri Glides. What’s more ‘Murican than, “I’m too old/fat to handle a regular Harley, but that shouldn’t stop me.”

This is an interesting question. I’ve owned and/or driven many kinds of vehicles, and I’ve often found that the size of a vehicle, compared to its ability to be easily driven on a daily basis, can vary wildly.

While I get your point, you still have to GET to the Best Westerns near wherever it is that you’re wanting to travel. This is your vehicle + hotel in one. Whether or not you see the appeal in that, is a different story I suppose. And you can't get four years in a hotel financed through a dealership.

I’m not sure either of these count, but they’re two that I’ve owned personally:
