My first car, a ‘73 (I think) VW Type 3 fastback went through voltage regulators like some people go through Q-Tips. My mechanic was just throwing new parts at it to try to solve the issue but the car rotted away before it was ever solved.

The double helix works best on Colorado plates...ski tracks!

Focus group: “we want an electric car that doesn’t look like an electric car”

I don’t want to have to go out and buy a Monster Energy hat.

I rented a convertible LeBaron just like that on a trip to the Florida Keys. The very first thing I noticed was the seatbelt prong thing was laced backwards onto the actual belt so it needed to be twisted to work. I remember thinking “if they can’t get THAT right...”

There must be a conversion chart somewhere, because Canada uses metric years.

I thought the MKT was a good choice, but then I saw one on the road yesterday and thought it looked like a hearse.  Still, I don’t know this guy’s relationship with his parents...

Must have been raining 

Used Volkswagen?  CP.

My parents had a big passenger van when I was in high school, and one day I got a call from my friend’s sister. The entire cheerleading squad needed a ride to the game. I could barely steer, and the brakes were pretty much useless, but I got them there, and a kiss on the cheek from one of them.  BEST DAY EVER.

I just sold our extended E-150. Daughter going to college and more than the wife and I needed for just the two of us, but dang...still stings.

I just know some day I’ll get home and the power will be out and I’ll be locked out of my house. That’s why I had some keys made and stashed them in the yard. No idea where, but they’re probably still stashed.

As a mountain biker who has never lost a key but remains paranoid it’ll happen, I’ve always been jealous of this option. Not jealous enough to own a Ford, but jealous nonetheless.

Saw the picture, knew it was you

I went to replace a headlight...opened hood, looked at what had to be disconnected, closed hood, called mechanic.

I actually like this little Rogue, and would be more than happy to rent one.

I met a woman once who said she was in “direct sales” or something like this and with a little nudging she admitted she was a spam caller.  She was a very nice lady just trying to make enough for food and rent.  God I hate her.

In the early ‘90's I dated a girl who’s dad just bought her a car. He said it was a red Mazda, which in those days meant it was probably going to be something pretty special. Nope, when she went to pick it up it wasn’t a red Mazda, it was an orange Monza (insert sad trombone noise).

I had the same 2012 GTI and after about 60k miles I wasn’t able to sleep thinking about the tensioner chain. I’d read that the change happened DURING the 2012 model year, so it was a gamble whether I had the old or new. I took it in to the dealer (my other mechanic said they’d best use VW parts for a job like this,

Yikes! I hope they made good after the survey.  Or at least you live in a place where you can take your business elsewhere (which I ultimately did)
