Hardly fair calling the Etihad Residence even just “first class”. There’s only one of those arrangements on the entire plane, and that A380 has very limited routing. It’s kind of in its own league way above first class with nothing for comparison.

That seems to be the story behind the Ranger...slow but steady.  I know Ranger owners who’ve had the entire interior wear out but the engine just keeps going.

I came to make both these points as well. The Lima Pinto engine should be on a list of greatest engines of all time, not worst. The fact that it didn’t have a lot of power in the Pinto has nothing to do with its quality. It was meant to be a thrifty little motor for an economy car. The fact that it was versatile…

They’re there to protect the seller’s shoes.

I’ve never seen the underside of a Lagonda. Very cool to see.

How did it get this bad? Specifically the interior. That cannot be regular wear and tear from use, because these are not reliable enough to function as a normal vehicle long enough for that to happen. It’s almost like someone was trying to live in it.

The LC made 230hp. The ML55 was a rocket ship compared to the LC. I was looking at power numbers and the Escalade was still rocking 255hp. The Expedition was a slug. The Durango and Grand Cherokee were at 250hp. I think this was one of the first fast suv’s.

I want to hide in plain sight with a deceptively fast hot rod.

I’ll save everyone the time. Yes, we know you only buy used cars. We know you only cook your own food, hunt your own animals down for the food and make your own clothes. You are better than everyone else. Did I cover everything?

Hard to hold. The real criminals here are the manufacturers who don’t allow a landscape mode while holding vertically. 

I was never in show business, but cocaine was more of a 1970s/1980s Boomer drug, not really a GenX thing. By the time we got to the drug using stage in the early 1990s enough famous people had died from coke that it wasn’t that cool.

D’Iiiiiiii heard that!  

Oh, how I would loathe being behind the wheel of this boat.

Does this mean the Giulia will also get a 2 door version?

“ but it’s also gorgeous and an absolute delight to drive”

I don’t disagree, but good luck with that.

Even if I didn’t own one, I would still say the Volvo C30. Especially the Rebel Blue Polestars that we only got 250 of in the United States. The GTI and Mini were already too well-established to give the C30 much of a chance, resulting in a short model run with only about 20,000 sold in the US. Weird, quirky,…

1st Gear: Note that the study is only about driver assistance system *safeguards* for preventing abuse. It’s not an actual test of how well these systems do the self-driving thing.

Just like the Thunderbird, going with what might be unpopular: Lexus SC430.

11th Gen Ford Thunderbird. Might be an unpopular opinion, but I’ve started to find intense 50's boomer nostalgia pieces from this era weirdly charming.
