A close second would be any car with an injection-molded steering wheel. Its literally the only surface that will be touched for the whole duration you’re in the car.

2015 Nissan Versa. Received as a rental. Horrible CVT, rode like a skateboard with bad trucks - overall totally the soul-crushing experience I needed.

Rental fleets and BHPH lots:

Seems rational, but what about the bycatch?  Guaranteed some innocents are going to be caught inside those barriers.  

There was a time period in my life where I was sourcing my (new) tire purchases almost exclusively from the local Pick and Pull for 2 reasons:

Dumb name both with brand name and the actual name of the vehicle.

Found my new craft fair festival band name - thanks!

We deal with English service manuals for Korean equipment here at work and have had decent luck taking the stuff we can’t figure out and using Google to translate it back into Korean and then right back into English again.

My dad had a ‘69 Chevelle SS396 when the gas crunch hit. He traded it in on one of these. I remember him keeping a case of oil in the back and him routinely topping it off during fuel stops. It practically was a 2 stroke. I love the guy, but still am bitter about him not keeping the Chevelle for his only son.

Dammit - I was all excited when I read the headline and realized they were talking Garage 56 and not Garage 54. Garage 54 being involved in NASCAR would actually make me want to watch it.

1986 Chevy Celebrity wagon. Bought it in ~1995 with 200K on it (it was used for deliveries and had a GM reman trans recently installed) for $100 from a friend of a friend who couldnt keep it running. New ignition module and unfcuking the plug wires got it going.

I have Polk registration data for work and for fun I ran numbers (as of Oct 2022) on all these on the list. Interesting to see how few (or many in some cases) of these things are still registered and bumping around the roads. There are more Taurus X’s still running around than Metris - Metrisses (Metrii?). Also 5 4…

COW!

How much do I love this comment?

My dad and I visited Universal Studios in the mid 70s when it was all about the movies - no rides really and at the front gate when we were walking in was Evel and his Stutz Bearcat, crashed into a pole. Seems that someone had talked their way onto the lot Evel was at saying they were taking it for service and didnt…

I still hate that this is the market these days, but given that market and this truck as it sits - yeah, definite NP.

I want to turn the M upside down

Having lived there for a couple years I have but two words:
