not to pick nits, but Tracker was a Sidekick actually. I had a Sidekick and want another.

Does the dart have the slant six

LOL! Well played sir.. well played.

So it’s full size Anki Drive. Fun in my living room, but I’m not going to watch robots racing as a sport.

Sounds like you need a cheap drift car and forget both of those groups.

You need to go to a Good Guys show or some other. I went to Rod Run in Pigeon Forge a few years ago and that crowd was every bit as dangerous, loud, and obnoxious as any of the import crowds I’ve been around. No shortage of Mustangs, Camaros, Corvettes, etc doing burnouts leaving parking lots, in front of cameras on…

I’ve got a toe in both worlds. The import crowd (96 Harlequin Golf and 12 Fiat Abarth) and the muscle car crowd (70 Dart Swinger) and it’s simply a case of pick your poison. Do you hang out with the young immature douches in the import crowd, or the old exclusionary dicks and assholes in the muscle car crowd. They are…

I’m a huge VW fan and have been to quite a few shows. And it would have been really cool to head out there as a Harlequin owner, as 10 of them showed up this year, and none of them were a yellow base like mine. But the reputation that H20i has and Ocean City PD, you couldn’t get me to stick a pinky toe in that town. I…

Isn’t it weird that it’s only the Second Amendment that is a blanket “I can do whatever the hell I want” clause?

But either way, it’s not that every Tom/Dick/Harry can have a gun. You can have a gun if you serve in a well-regulated militia. Otherwise, no.

Further, the gun manufacturers deliberately manufacture their semi-automatic rifles as fully automatic and then put a mechanism so you can’t just squeeze down the trigger. What this does is it makes it incredibly easy to convert your legally purchased semi-automatic weapons and turns them into fully-automatic ones.…

I own it... :p

I won’t play it. I jumped into a free weekend to try it out roughly 8 months ago and the lobby was just horrible. Terrible things were said that no human should say to another human with any type of conscience. Not to mention the messages I was getting on Live. I play games for fun, I didn’t need that toxicity in my…

Parties are responsible for “unintentional” damage all the time. Now I’m not saying this is the law, because as I think I made clear in my original post I don’t know what the law actually is on this, but as a matter of basic logic, this is fundamentally different from potholes because pot holes are a symptom of a…

Hey, homeowners associations! If you see something this weird in the future, it might behoove you to simply Google it first.

No, not exactly.. All the descriptions I gave were missing physical pieces of hardware in order to make them work. I think the Tesla issue is much more insidious. Just like the battery range difference between the S60 and S75, the hardware is already there. It’s just hidden or locked out, sometimes behind a paywall in…

Ugh.... stopped playing with these when I was a kid.

Look at it from another perspective though. How many other cars have you bought that allow features to be added post-production? Zero!

Unless you want to be able to use your full battery capacity.

What can be done to fix the ugly?
