I thought that was you at overriders! Sorry about the chromies, they were hitting the shine a bit too hard that night. 

So just to remember, Oldsmobile didn’t die. It just went to the Matrix. Because apparently 1/4 of all the cars on the Matrix highways are Oldsmobiles. 

Also went from Vodka martinis to Heineken? Not seeing the irony that Austin Powers, who was parodying James Bond, did commercials for them before?

Props to the builder for using the 4T80E trans instead of the OEM option of the 4T60/65. The original tended to explode. What’s curious is how he sorted out the starter. The 80 series is designed for the Northstar, and has the starter under the intake manifold. SBCs on the other hand have the starter down low near the…

Right but it was SO BLAND. Seriously, a local friend buys a used one a few years ago. I didn't even notice he had changed from his Bonneville for a month. And apparently, I wasn't there only one. 

To be fair he had to compromise on the engine. It was originally designed for the GM rotary engine. Much like another compromised car, the AMC Pacer. 

Want to talk about cost cutting on GMs? See that giant red section in the middle that should be a tail light? Nope. Just a reflector. In some of the promotional materials that glows as well. 

That ranger actually isn't too shabby. Those trucks are cockroaches. They'll be here after we're gone and the lizard people will be driving those, s10s, Panthers and XJs. 

My brain keeps autocorrectimg his name to Manjaro. Guess who's been doing a lot of Linux installs lately ...

That was a good special. But let's be honest, any episode that opens with "we built a catapult for some reason" is already on the right track. 

You forgot the original Jeep Convertible pickup

They’ll be built in Mexico if they want them closer, or Vietnam if they're willing to wait. 

You’re correct. The Moto G and Moto X were huge hits at the time. Then the Moto E also owned the low end market for a few years before Chinese OEMs caught up. 

Yup. Apparently this was all planned ahead of time by the deep state. No I'm not kidding. 😑

Studded snows. You should buy studded snows on their own rims.

More reliable than that Audi that's for sure. 

Man it’s such a shame that Tesla is going to be broke now that Biden doesn’t give two fucks about Elon. Because why else would the savior of humanity be so focused on what a damp sock puppet president be doing, to paraphrase EV Jesus. Evesus if you will.

Seems fishy to me.
