Nah man. I mean, I wouldn’t call them great, but if you live in an area where you can’t (or shouldn’t) drive your good car year round, they’re perfect winter beaters. I’ve picked up several for under CA$1500, they last a couple of winters without any major issues, and eventually the transmission dies and I get another…

My mom had a Sable when I was a kid, I have a lot of fond memories of being stranded in that thing. It got scrapped at about 90k with it’s third grenaded transmission.

Heyyy! SHO’s make great daily drivers. We use hubbies 94 SHO (the very same from the RCR video!) For 3 seasons a year. It’s been relatively trouble free, in fact I’ve spent more keeping my 2009 SX4 on the road.

this is a good list. As much as i cna see the complaints, I will still give a nod to mass effect : andromeda. yeah it had issues, I still think that bioware games live and die by their characters, and while a few took me time to get to really enjoy them. Plus i felt the pathfinder had more relatable humor than the…

The tip to the rental company was when the vehicle was returned with no panel gaps.

Going back about 15 years now, our local Miata club (LVMOC) made contact with some people from NJ that called themselves the M3 Sluts, and we decided to have a get together that involved driving around NY, NJ, and PA for a few hours on a nice Sunday.

Ford Flex. The perfect refrigerator on wheels.

There are two schools of thought: 1) get a first car that’s easy to drive without stalling to build confidence or 2) get an underpowered shitbox that’s a nightmare to drive (like Mr. Tracy had) and then you can drive anything. I went the same route as David (due to necessity) and I’m not afraid to drive anything.

Right idea, wrong vehicle (XJ would have been close). A Ford F-150 with the 4.9L straight 6 and the 4+OD transmission is cheap, bulletproof, and easy to drive in equal measure. It may be a loud, thirsty, poor handling, rattle trap, but it’s one of the easiest platforms to learn to drive stick on and leaves you with…

I had an ‘84. That was both the best, and worst, car I’ve ever owned. I miss it, but I SO don’t miss it.

So there’s this thing called AP Standard that journalists are supposed to follow that includes getting brands right.

You make good stuff, people gonna copy!

If he wanted to be really cute, he’d raise a “COME AND TAKE IT” flag, but with a tank on it instead of a cannon.

“they can try to tow it”

i love this car. i LOVE this car. Must be the fact they arent sold in spain, but i find them freaking glorious. if i ever win the lottery im importing one.

This. Podcasts are life.

So actually, this is mine haha. It’s not posted anywhere right now due to it needing the radiator, and to be honest I’m not even 100% on selling it. We’ve used it to haul Jeeps out to offroad trips. Just about the largest vehicle we’ve fit in the back is a WJ Grand Cherokee. It’s plumbed for air, has some cabinets…

Holy crap. A rational, logical, well thought out response. I’m blown away.
