My brother owned a '97 Jetta VR-6 and currently owns an Audi A-4. It was one of the features he couldn't stop bragging about. It is really cool though.

To paraphrase a middling movie, "Mr. DriventoInsanity, what you've just said ... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this website is now dumber for having…

I'm glad to see someone giving Huey Lewis & the News a little love. They were (are) one of my favorite bands. I was as excited as a little school girl when I won tickets to see them a few years ago, when they played at the amphitheater at our zoo. A really great show.

Well, seeing as how my family & I damn near got run over by some belligerent asshole at the mall yesterday, I'm coming around to the increased safety standards for pedestrians (see my post last night on Oppo). More and more, it seems that people cannot be bothered with waiting for people to cross the street, nor are…

Regarding class 4 sex-capades. The installation of jacks beneath the van is highly recommended in order to keep the van from a rockin' and the police come a knockin'. This is the voice of experience talking. Take heed.

Could that be plasti-dip? At least it could be peeled off. I hear that's popular with the tuning crowd.

Mmmmm, waffles. I saw on the food network a restaurant that puts stuffing in their waffles irons. It looked, interesting. I think it was Diners, Drive-ins & Dives. I might have to check that out.

My neighbor gave me this today. I have an older model I've had for almost 30 years that I'll pass on to my son. It's a really nice gift, that I wasn't expecting at all.

Well, I'll see if my 9 year old son has a good Christmas tomorrow. My wife & I bought him the Skylanders game for the Wii yesterday. It was $50 at Toys R Us, which was $25 less than anywhere else we looked. Damn, these games are expensive!

When my wife and I had our kids, there was nothing that set me off more than when someone suggested that I "babysit" my kids when my wife wasn't there. Excuse me? I don't baby sit, I parent, because I'm their dad. I provide for them, discipline them when necessary and support them through all their trials &…

The driver of the car behind the Acura needs to heed the lyrics of this song.

And, lo, the Jaaag company announced the production of a super car, of gorgeous line and form, that only the extremely rich and wealthy could ever be able to purchase, and there was much rejoicing.

Wait, what?

I wouldn't bet too much. A late model NSX had 290 HP and 224 lb ft of torque. The Sienna had 266 HP & 245 lb ft of torque.

Look, man, if there's one thing I know, it's how to drive when I'm stone. It's like you know your perspective's fucked, so you just let your hands work the controls as if you were straight.

That's a Honda Element.

'86 Dodge Van. Straight Six, Four on the Floor. It would lock up the back brakes at the hint of moisture, was so slow it was painful, and the front crush zone was your knees. All in all, a wonderful design.

Well, Duh! She is shading it with her body! She must have forgot a cloth to wash it with, as she appears to be using her shirt.

Several years ago, I appraised a home which had one of those in the back yard. The owner worked for the local village, and when the "improved" the local play ground, they removed the merry go-round. So, he bought if for scrap metal prices (maybe $100?) and had the grounds crew install it in his back yard for the grand…

I don't know what the hell these guys are talking about, saying these vans were hard to work on. My dad and I disassembled the top part of our 1979 van's 318 V-8 right down to the block, and pretty much didn't even have to open the hood. We just removed the two front seats and worked from inside the van. It took a…
