Koenigsegg had to recall all the Ageras they sold in America because of an innocuous TPMS issue. Oh wait, did I say Ageras? I meant to say Agera, because there was only one in the whole country.

"For this Ford Motor should be thoroughly ashamed. Endorsing and promoting sodomy is of benefit to no one. This topic is disruptive to the workplace and is an assault on Christians and morality, as well as antithetical to our design and survival. Immoral sexual conduct should not be a topic for an automotive…

For the non-Italian speaking readers out there, "quattro" means four, and "porte" means door. You can probably figure out how many doors the Quattroporte has by this point.

Whatever TSA agents drive.

Current temperature: 65F. Weather conditions: sunny. Birds are chirping and Yankees are shivering. What, me worry?

The government cannot surveil anyone nor everyone without probable cause. If there's nothing to hide, the state has no business to pry. How does one say USA in Eastern German?

That's what happens when you buy a sports car at the same place where Chevies are sold.

Thanks to the Chicken Tax, we Americans rarely get to see European work trucks like these. Why, again, aren't truck beds with fold-down sides more popular in the US? Sure, they just look like a big drawer stuck on the back, but, damn, are they handy.

I really like these early-gen Renault Twingos. It's such a clean, fun, distinctive small car design. People still thought I was an idiot to take a picture of it.

Why is the non-US Corolla so much cooler than ours? Or at least was. We never got this pretty great looking 5-door hatch, with its fun round headlights. Now I'm even angrier at all of our boring-ass Corollas.

This is how Quattoruote rendered it a couple of years ago.

I owned one, and it was coughing up issues at 20,000mls.

Let's see: 4 is false, for you pay much than just depreciation, especially when adding the money down; 3 is also true for used cars; 2 is also true when buying; 1 is true only for some people. Ergo, there are four fallacies why leasing is smarter, therefore, dumber than buying.

My favorite driving roads in the Austin area come up after Mopac dead ends into RM 1826 in Hays County. Then you're on some really nice, winding Hill Country roads down by Driftwood, Dripping Springs, and Wimberley. If you've ever heard of or eaten at the Salt Lick, you know what I'm talking about.

Wow! No mention yet of the dreadful Seven Mile Bridge in the Florida Keys?

1st Gear: It's Time To Raise The Gas Tax

In my neck of the woods, Diesel is twice the price of unleaded. Makes absolutely no sense economically or acoustically, given its agricultural noises.
