Late ‘80's, late at night. I was driving through western Kansas, and was one of the only cars on I-70 at the time. Out there there’s not a lot between you and the horizon, so you can see for miles. I was driving toward a weird light far off to the south of the highway and couldn’t figure out what it was. When I…

I promise to give a wink to our campervan as it sits waiting for spring.

All car reviews should read like this. Kristen Lee, you have my vote for president of the world.

Why would anyone want a supercar when Morgans exist?

As a bellman at a hotel I usually told people we did not offer valet parking, unless of course they drove up in something interesting. The top of the list was a guy who showed up in a mid-fifties Rolls Royce. “Oh no, sir, I’ll park your car in a spot where it will be safe”. So here I am having to drive around in a…

last fall I rented a car to drive my family around Los Angeles whilst visiting my sister. We could choose from any car along the “compact” row...I was uninspired until my wife spotted a Corolla...the “SE” model. Economical of course, but amazingly comfortable and just quick enough to dodge in and out of freeway…

We’re on our fourth Subaru, always from the same dealer. I’ve had two separate sales guys tell me “it’s just a car, don’t spend the money if you don’t need to”. I wish I could use this dealer to shop other brands as well.

I think Formula E cars sound reaaaallly cool in person. I’m excited for this change.

You forgot something: having to answer “why do you keep an ice scraper on the dashboard?”

my very favorite BMW wheels

My daughter just loves most of the new colors coming on the Subaru Crosstrek. Her favorite is that purple-ish/grey-ish color. I asked her what color it is exactly, she said it’s called “purplegrbl”.

My first car was a Type3 fastback. It had a trunk AND a frunk. This is the car where I tried my hand at bodywork by pop-riveting a garbage can lid to the floorboard to plug a hole. It worked for a couple of days. Then was the Scirocco, and then a Jetta that almost bankrupted me with repairs. I swore never again. Until…

Back in the day cars had bulging fenders, and then they didn’t. Then they had tailfins and then they didn’t. And then came station wagons, then hatchbacks, then minivans and mini pickups, and then those got big again. And then there were SUVs and then crossovers. Cars change, I’m ok with that.

Volkswagen could do it. Sorta.

Mine was pretty good, but it had a vapor lock problem. It might have been an easy fix for the right mechanic, but I certainly wasn’t the right mechanic. The only other issue I remember is the wiper fluid pump didn’t work, so I had to tailgate through puddles to wash the windshield.

I totally forgot about that! It went with the one windshield wiper.

I had a ‘78. Your screenshot brings back some memories...some good, some of all of those lights coming on at once

She’s DEFINITELY a ghost, but he’s more than likely a con man, pretending to solve her murder to steal from her estate. It’s the white suit that gives him away.
