Nah, you’re not the only one. I can’t stand Teslas. They aren’t so much cars as they are smartphones you ride inside. Their whole schtick is minimizing driver interaction. I respect what they’ve done in terms of advancing the EV powertrain and getting EVs into the mainstream, but I like driving, and Tesla actively

Haha, nope it’s actually this car: https://barnfinds.com/how-many-left-1989-sterling-827-sli/

Its almost like you can have multiple opinions about one event. Like I, for instance, can think both “fuck those morons holding a sideshow in the middle of a city” and “WTF was that cop thinking driving over the fucking people”.

Lol, you think that the EU is getting to where they are by making new hydro?

4th Gear:

Unsure what counts as a facelift, but this poor bastard child had all kinds of promise as an inexpensive, gas-sipping 4WD with headroom, on a proven chassis. First pass, I thought we had a new Brat for grown-ups. I’m not sure what happened after that, like Toyota thought customers were so fond of the name that they’d

There was absolutely nothing wrong with the original Multipla. This is just sad. 

This facelift ruined all the quirky charm of the first gen.

The best part is how absolutely useless they are for hauling anything in the beds. With those over-sized cabins eating into the bed as manufacturers try to position them for family comfort. I was buying lumber the other day, shoving a bunch of lumber into the back of my Forester, just some six and 8ft boards and all

I’ve seen a few comments saying that even electric vehicles are still technically burning hydrocarbons, since power plants are usually natural gas or coal. I’d like to correct that, and say that some of us live in deregulated energy markets, and we choose the (more expensive) 100% renewable option. (Here in Texas, you

I say this as a dyed-in-the-wool environmentalist: at some point, we need to get people who don’t give a shit about the environment to also buy EVs. We need to get everyone (or at least most people) driving vehicles that aren’t powered by fossil fuels if we are to have a hope of preserving at least some of the Earth’s

So... In other words, every year Honda makes the Ridgeline uglier and less special. The first gen Ridgeline was exactly what a unibody truck should be, and it looked good. The “weird” sail panels, from a styling perspective, look a whole lot better than just the shape of the cab ending with a 90 degree angle. And the

Why does it need to look mean? The whole “every vehicle needs to look pissed” thing is WAAAAY overdone. It looks like a Honda, and looks perfectly fine to me. Ultimately, it IS a Pilot with an open bed, so why shouldn’t it look like that?

Nonsense. I grew up driving on rural highways and gravel roads in Alberta. You stop. You put your hazards on and you check to see what you hit. There are very - very - few circumstances where you do otherwise, limited to zero visibility may be one since cars coming up from behind you might not see you’ve stopped. If

I’m from SD and know that area well.  There is zero reason to be scared to stop on the highway at night there.

Best thing is not to intentionally “accidentlally” drive into the crowd you’re counter-protesting. Is that so complicated?

You probably didn't watch the 2nd video, or read the transcript. The guy could have went another way. Bye 🤡

Yeah, a guy up here in Canada made his own pretend cop car and then went out and shot 20 some odd people. and the cops didn’t let anyone know he was out there playing cop.

A ‘strand’ is also a shore or beach; that’s why one gets stranded.

Also- “Strand Craft”, for a watercraft maker? Did we think about this?
