Try a BMW 2002 where the rotors screw to the hub from behind. That’s fun as well.

I got a lot of use out of this book back in the 70s when I was trying to keep my $300 63 VW campervan on the road. Very well written and easy to understand for the budding mechanic.

I remember back in the mid 80s I was on the underside of the suspension side of the bay bridge (basically big metal and pavement reverberation chamber) leaving San Francisco at about 3:00 am. I was pretty much alone out there. I started to hear rumble growing in intensity and my first thought was oh crap it’s an…

The last GM product I’ve owned was a 1970 Chevy Nova. They have built so much crap and refused to back up their products for decades. It seems their motto is “you bought it its your problem now”. I have no idea how they stay in business. It must all those Chinese buying Buicks keep them afloat.

I agree with everything you say, but I still love owning and driving my 1973 Fiat 124 spider. I’ve spent days fiddling with the points and carburetors, but I love the simplicity of it. there is very little there that isn’t necessary. I’d own a few other classics if I could afford it. Not everything we do in life has…

why is it every time people video stuff like this the instant it really gets interesting the camera get aimed at the ground?

Some people just shouldn’t be allowed out in public.

So Xmas is an opportunity to rip-off it’s mindless followers. Looks like they’ve learned from the best of em. We all need a $5000 E meter that does nothing and costs $10 to produce. good job.

I’m seriously curious, what are the Scientology holidays? The birth of L. Ron perhaps?

“Tesla needs their crossover to be a big hit. Any way we can hope for a Model S or Model 3 wagon, though?”

I’m sorry but the engine is in the wrong place.

Although if we are talking roadways then we are talking oil and coolant and so on on a glass surface. That might make for a very slippery surface. In any urban environment at least 50% of the road surface is covered by cars during daylight hours limiting the efficiency of the panel, not to mention putting them in…

I know they say that corporations are people and all that crap, but if we sent the executives that made these decisions to jail, they might think twice. Corporations pay fines as a part of doing business, but you can’t send a corporation to jail; you can send the CEO that made the call to prison though. Why are the…

“It’s a completely bland, anonymous hunk of malaise. So of course they name it the exact opposite, because “worthless piece of shit” probably wouldn’t move as many units.”

“Look, if we don’t fix the problem we’ll save 57 cents on every car we sell! What could possibly go wrong? By the way never had this conversation.”

Repeat to yourself “it’s just a show I really just relax”

That's it. The BBC is dead to me.
