So how do road hazards and random deer/other animals factor into the “know what you’re doing explanation??

I think the car might be capable of the speed but I doubt most drivers can judge the distance they’re covering. I’d argue in the right conditions high speed is fine, but any more than 110-120 and you’re asking questions of the car’s tyres that you probably shouldn’t. Going 7/10's in a 911 Turbo makes some sort of…

No, just no. Not on any road with regular public traffic being driven by regular people who are not trained for, or expecting someone in a 911 driving 140 MPH. Not on roads designed for 70 MPH. Just no. Not as long as my children are driving on the same public roads you.

Ever hit a deer? At that speed, you probably won’t even see it come out of the woods.

NO. NO. NO. NO.

Obviously he wasn’t a Toyota tech, these have an access panel in the floor, takes ~15 minutes to take the passenger seat out and the access cover. About the only thing you can’t do with the engine still in the car is the head gasket or like, a full reseal. They aren’t terrible to pull with the tool they gave the…

Say hello to a beautiful day with the 1983 Nissan EXA Turbo.

I’m “salty” and “self-righteous” because it’s a FWD Civic with a plastic vent problem.

I kind of liked that concave bit on the rear tailgate for one reason:

Only the savvy buyers insist on the durable outer casing to prevent fall-apart.

Not to mention it’s probably a Sorny, Panaphonics or Magnetbox TV.

I’m assuming you are a huge fan of the badges of ownership.

I would have thought the article made no sense. I mean Obama’s oldest daughter wasn’t even born yet when Cobain died. Now we are supposed to believe a baby dyed her hair blue? The whole story would fall apart.

To be fair, it is a lot easier to shift the burden of clean energy to the grid and not to each and every individual car. So, your energy “could” conceivably be clean, depending on where your power comes from. That can never be the case for a gasoline-powered car.

Of course, you then descend into a rabbit hole about the…

Once you reach a certain age, pitching a tent gets harder and harder.

Miata is Sometimes the Answer. (MISTA - this should be a brand of soda)

I think modern cars are too fast and powerful for 99% of what most people do.
