Hallelujah, amen.

Should have had that secured better - chained or enclosed. The potential energy contained in an elastic container - such as a tire, or a hose - is enormous - even at much lower pressures. I used to work at a place that burst fire hose and we always did our tests in a steel burst tank. Bursts of a 6 inch hose at 1200 -…

Driving thru Chicago a few years ago. Bumper to bumper, 8 lanes, 60 mph or more. Car ahead of me with a rear wheel bouncing of the road. We happened to get off at the same exit and that's when I noticed that Mom had a kid in the back seat - no seat belt. Unbelievable.

Nice. When in college in the 80's I drove a 72 LTD 4 door, dark green. It was called Mr. Ed. I caught air over a hump in town and as all 4 wheels cleared the pavement I noticed the cop sitting on the side of the road. He didn't move.

I like the ad. I like gluten too. Whatever it is.

What a blast. Got to find me a 2 stroke Saab.

Ahhh, thanks. Was wondering why no rev matching.

We just use shovels for the big parts and rinse the rest off with the hoses....

He did. It was amazing. I still remember the 'fuel tank cam' shot showing a tiny puddle of fuel in the bottom of the tank.

My Aunt buys new every few years because she doesn't know about cars, doesn't want to know about cars, and doesn't want to worry about it breaking down. She is buying peace-of-mind and that's a good enough reason for her.

100k is my zero. I've had fantastic luck with high mileage cars. The lowest mileage car I've owned was a 2004 Neon RT I bought with 55K and drove to over 180k. Two jeep ZJ's bought at around 100k and drove to over 200k. My current 2002 Jeep WJ has negative miles - 84k. Had a Volvo 740 that I wanted to push over…

A manual trans. Those are basically optional now, aren't they?

Yea, been there, done that...in my wife's grocery getter 06 Saab 9-3 2.0T doing Watkin's Power Days or whatever they call it. Was a blast - hit 95 on the long straight, but had to back off early cause the brakes were going and my wife would have disapproved of punting the thing into the fence on that sweeping,…

The real thrill is boost. Cursed, wretched boost that causes one to overlook all other ills.

That's why I own three (four if you count the parts car). One of which is in my garage now getting a turboectomy.

Been there, done that. Fairly well know method of mounting a stubborn tire. Not condoning at all though....

What about 'Failure to Yield On-rampers'? More than one has gotten an earful. Merge properly people - either judicious use of throttle or careful application of brakes.

Those things look like a blast. Got to check it out. What motors are they running?

Got to get me a rwd.

WHAT? No Saab 9000? Goes like stink, gets 30 mpg, and carries a bunch of stuff. I once carried home 2 gas furnaces in the back of mine.
