So, you found a better photo for the lead. I was going to write about the deal on Supreme fuel at $2.45 gal as shown in the previous photo. ;)

You’re ignoring the fact that until Covid, very few people paid full MSRP for new cars. Shopping around for the best discount off MSRP was par for the course.

3rd Gear.

The Taco seats are like sitting low in sports car, with feet out in front. More weight on your butt, vs spreading the load on your thighs in most trucks. I find it uncomfortable for longer drives.

I remember the Audi display at a car show a few years back. Every car on the floor was white. Now that gets the blood flowing....

I won’t really pity the sucker that buys this and finds 20 years worth of corrosion under all that plastic wrap. And dried out belts/seals/bushings.

I’m not standing up for the current wealth gap, but your assertion is definitely wrong “These people are richer than anyone in recorded history.”

I like my convertible best at night! :)

I’m sure its here somewhere, but Miata is always the answer.

I read your comment and got a completely different meaning.

Chrysler hit a lot of homeruns with convertibles!

Neutral: I remember getting Matchbox cars by mail at home. That was a glorious time, anxiously unpacking a new car.

I’m (still) waiting for Netflix or Amazon to startup a motorsport focused on-demand streaming branch. Since every motorsport runs over a weekend, its impossible to watch them all live.

I like it in green. Seeing as I’d want to drive a car, I’m more interested in a resto-mod than the original.

That was the ‘return to center’ type of shifter. Another solution to a problem that never existed.

He just passed the ‘road’ test.

I wouldn’t want to be the one to black flag a competitor because their tire pressure dropped .5 psi below a somewhat artificial limit.

Well, VW raced and won the Dakar 3 times, but that doesn’t mean much in North America.

Good to know. Lets see more details about the average working-stiff spectator experience at the event.

I’ve used AA in rental cars, but find it annoying. The navigation perpetually cuts out the radio for audio instructions and lack of split screen means trying to tune the radio (or other functions) while navigating is near impossible without switching back and forth.
