While for the most part it looks better to me, the front end doesn’t seem to be an improvement to me. Either way, the only time I’ll ever deal with one is as a rental car or when i’m drunk in an uber. 

I thought Santa was from the North?

Indy Car has just as many racists, and the racing is pretty boring, with minimal passing and a widely spread out field.

Only a Crown Vic will do! 

Damn Justin, everyone one of your pieces has typos. Do you or anyone else proof-read your work? “It turns out the noise is made by new a new sidewalk railing installed on the bridge.” 

Where do you live? I seem to get a ticket every time I park in Denver for no front plate, but here in Fort Collins they don’t care. 

I hate front plates. Only two my trucks have them, I don’t run them on anything else. Can’t park on the street in Denver though, they will ticket you immediately. When I moved to Michigan I thought it was funny that they charge you extra for a front plate if you want it. 

I’m so glad that you’re an expert. Just bring us the damn news, we don’t need your shitty opinion included with it. 

Since when has Hawthorne been considered the “bay area”?

Can confirm. Used to be engaged to a Canadian girl. 

The shit is about to hit the fan. 

Impressive! 

The Ford C-Max is close enough. We used to call them that when I worked at the Ford Technical hotline until someone got offended when it was used on the phone. lol

They are pretty damn solid. I bought a rusty one in Michigan for 3k, and have put 35,000 miles on it in five years and it’s only cost me about $300 in maintenance and repairs. 

Correct, I wrote a comment saying this and then scrolled down and saw you said pretty much the exact same thing I did lol

It’s actually a 2004 Heritage model. Basically the last year of the ten gen carried over along side production of the 11th gen. You can tell by the orange turn signals and also the fact that the sticker on the door jamb shows a build date of 01/04. It’s a clean truck, love the manuals! 

Obviously wasn’t stimulus money but I bought a 97 Mustang GT convertible for $1150. Just put an angle kit and coilovers on it, gonna be a sweet drift car! 

Working on my vehicles is really the only thing left to do, other than video editing and working on my train layout or playing video games. Realistically, I’ll have plenty to do for months if need be.

I feel like its more than just a MY2011 problem. For whatever reason, even the brand new HEMI powered vehicles that come into my shop often have the “HEMI tick”.

These are the kind of posts I come to Jalopnik for, thanks!
