Yup, for the longest time I couldn’t understand the second checking account my banker convinced 22-something y/o me that I really needed to have. It didn’t really cost me anything, so I figured whatever (other than my money being in multiple accounts I needed to keep track of)...but a few years later, hey look they…

Amen, my good sir. It’s pretty telling once you start looking in to the details of the “nothing” that many so-called success stories crawled out of “all on their own”.  In most cases absolutely there’s plenty of praise to be given to the person’s dedication and hard work, but that’s not merely all it takes. And it…

Jokes on your friend - factory had awarded him employee of the month compared to how well he attached the brake pedals compared to his peers, but he was already long gone. 

You mean a whiskey in one hand isn’t the proper torque wrench technique?

But wait - if you choose that option you get the same shifter as I have on my Chevy Bolt. How could you resist?! 

Nope. Some random dude thought up what the next ____ car is going to look like? Good for you bro, keep it off twitter. That space is now reserved as a historical record of bad (usually political) positions. Don’t let your shitty doodle be one of them.

Yup this article could also be titled “Yet another winter on the California Coast”. It’s not uncommon at all to have parts of HWY 1 just fall off, especially in this area.

Just replying to say I hope this post is followed up with one about THE BEST driving/car themed songs.

Yup, exactly the horrible song that popped in to my head when I read the headline.

Welcome to tonight’s episode of the Corporate States of America!

Agreed. I’m not a fan of “term limits!” particularly (simply creates a revolving door with people looking at congress as a stepping stone to a lucrative lobbying career) but there are too many dinosaurs who are A-OK with the status quo that just need to go. But then again the problem comes back to how even people who…

You’re right the democrats won’t - especially in this case where there isn’t any actual suggestion that she did anything unsavory. But I’m with you 100% that there should be a public groundswell from across the political spectrum demanding that limitations of this nature be put on everyone in congress and in the…

We don’t know, but Pelosi does? You’re saying she knows whether she did or not, so by default what she did was wrong? That’s some crazy logic there.

Seriously. Assuming that’s a real Momo steering wheel you could probably sell it to someone with a boy racer fantasy, get a junk yard BMW wheel, and net out a couple of hundred bucks in the process. Same with the wheels if you want to go for a more stock look. The actual car itself, the bits that are harder to switch…

Can you clarify what you mean by the “Alpine version”? Did you mean Alpina? Pretty sure they didn’t make a Z3 based Alpina? Did you mean alpine white paint? Is that considered a rare color on these cars? 

Not on that side of the pond so had no idea they shut down the Swindon plant. Any idea if that facility is just sitting dormant now or did someone else take it up?

Well, yeah. Obviously, because the top would be at the bottom. 

I don’t get all the hate either...but that’s not the ONLY reason. Looking at one of them leaves you blind, the other leaves you blindly in love. 

Mercedes CLK convertibles can be had dirt cheap (like under $8k) even with a V8. Throw a few more bucks and you can get an AMG 55 - seriously. The 63s are rarer, newer, and more expensive...but the 55 might be the better buy anyway with less headache to deal with given it’s legendary powertrain.  

Arkansas - the state that makes you get the “name the 50 states in alphabetical order” wrong in grade school before you even get past the “A”s. How could you blame a child?
