Because there aren't already enough SUVs to choose from.

I don't know if Prettiest is the right description but I've always liked the 55 Chevy from Two Lane Blacktop.

Reminds me of the punch line from an old SNL parody advert for a car called the adobe: "you could buy a cheaper car, but I wouldn't"

This is the first thing I thought of when I read this (just a note this NSFW)

This is what I'd expect from a generation raised with no real hardships. You complain about the most trivial annoyances like you just faced death to dismemberment. Plug in your damn headphones and shut your pie-hole ya baby.

This is what happens when you get a generation that has grown up with virtually no hardships in their life. They bitch about the most inane trivial annoyances like they just faced death or dismemberment.

I wonder what the driver of that Toyota was looking at that kept him from noticing the road exploding in front of him. Seems like a reason to slow down and approanwith caution to me.

Looks like Florida man is visiting relatives in Houston.

I remember one night I'd worked a 12 hour shift. It was dark when I went out to my car (a 1987 Toyota 4wd van) I must have left a window down and a feral cat had climbed in for a nap. I got in and appearantly when I closed the door the noise awoke the cat. All of the sudden I'm sitting in a dark van with some wild…

Great! That means I can round down and say I'm almost 50.

Why go through the trouble of reinventing the wheel when we in the US are willing to spend billions to do all the planning and development? It just makes sense from a monetary point of view to let someone else eat the P&D costs. We love spending all our money on the military anyway.

They never should have agreed to put a slush-box in the thing in the first place. The guy that wanted the slushbox installed never should have been allowed to buy it. I'm behind Bristol on this one.

I think the only place they let the designers work with are the tail lights, grill, and picking the fabric for the seats. Everything else is designed by the wind tunnel and safety legislators. Working under these rules it's no wonder everything looks alike. I've stopped caring.

This will just be a leaver to force us into driverless cars. It will eventually be to much trouble to drive our own car as your asked for bodily fluids at ever increasing roadblocks and whatnot (trying to throw fuel on the conspiracy fire).

That's interesting. I have a set of automotive engineering books published in 1910 (there are a few pages on the wright flier) the books are divided up in four volumes, internal combustion, steam, electric, and a boom on fuels. I love all the different ideas that were being floated back then. There was even one with a…

It never ceases to amaze me the amount of work people put into crack pipe projects like this, and their misguided belief that other people share their tastes.

Because everything is better when it's an SUV?

Living on the California coast for 30 years now I've all but forgotten what it's like to drive in the snow. I learned to drive in the Colorado winter before that. Back when no self respecting American drove a front wheel drive car. I remember putting sand bags in the back of my 63 Chevy truck to gain a little extra…

Everyone knows this is just a coverup story. The real story is the the killer drones are attacking the ships from which they are launched. It has begun. The rise of the machines.

Also about sitting stopped. My last accident on a bike I was stopped as a light and a Volvo driver not paying attention hit from behind and sent me head first into the back of a minivan. I woke up on the ground wondering what the had happened. My helmet put a good sized dent in the back of that minivan. I'm a…
