My wife asked me why I kept buying more and more angle wire cutters. My answer was that I was constantly losing them and I figured that if I bought enough I would reach a saturation point: wherever I was looking for a pair I would have previously lost a pair in that region and they would magically appear right at…

The last time we flew together my wife was asking me why I was hovering around the gate to get on the plane as soon as I possibly could instead of just relaxing and getting on whenever. The overhead shit show is the reason. Having your bag behind you is death. Even if its just a couple rows back you have to make a…
I have used the “left side of my foot on the brake and roll my foot to blip the throttle” in 100% of the cars I have owned. I’ve never had a footbox large enough to actually “heel and toe”.
I’ve found it is much easier to heel and toe when driving at least a little aggressively. When you’re barely on the brake and only bumping the revs a tiny bit it is much harder to coordinate and get a perfectly smooth shift. As soon as I get on it a bit and have a bit more pressure on the brake pedal (and the brake…
Yes, please let’s get automotive journalists talking about how bad touch screens are! There needs to be pressure on the industry to abandon this insane trend.
This is how we did oil changes on the desils in the cruising boats at the sailing club I worked at. A guy I worked with told me about one time when he did it he was really pulling hard on the pump handle (it was just a pump rather than a negative pressure deal) to try and get the oil up the dipstick hole and POP, the…
Do not buy a Nissan (infinity). They’ve been building horrible cars for the last two decades.
Ahhh that sucks, poor Matt. I love this channel, so I am heavily biased, but this doesn’t diminish the respect I have for them. They seem like good people.
It was killing me. Killing.

I have a buddy that’s big on these b-bodies. I don’t know enough to say if it’s a good price or not, but that is a pretty sweet car. I’d love to get one of these as a DD.
It’s landlubber, not land lover.
The only reason we’re locked into a two party system is because we allow it to happen. It is entirely under our control. If the “both parties are bad” argument is tiring, it is only because it calls out the massive hypocrisy of almost everyone who votes in this country.
That is definitely not accurate. I have no respect for the democrats whatsoever, but the republican party no longer holds any conservative values, or any values at all really, other than believing the opposite of whatever the democrats say. Massive spending, increasing federal deficit faster than the dems, mass…
Highly recommend investing in a garage heater. Being able to wrench on it when it’s not peak driving season is absolutely critical.
The litmus test here is whether the protest agrees with the political opinions of the editors.
No surprise that yet another blog discounting the right of the truckers to protest is published. If you don’t agree with the editors’ political views you don’t deserve human rights.
Love the STi Limiteds. Tried to buy one at one point but wound up with a gently used 08 instead.
Yup.
Since it’s America they’re no doubt teaching you to pass the test, rather than be a good driver. I would probably take their advice. That said, I think the underlying point is that you should be looking where you are going directly rather than relying on mirrors.
