Your head might explode if you go to Bermuda.

Being from New Hampshire I tend to forget that you’re not required to have insurance.

I absolutely must prioritize with my ‘61 Ford F100. It’s less of a project than yours, for sure. It runs and drives safely, and when I first got it, I only had to fix a few things like a fuel leak, bleeding the brakes, and a few electrical things.

How Jag does it. Hardly “on the first try” but you know. Those who don’t know their history....

I’ll see your Texas Truck Drift and raise you a New Hampshire 4WD Truck Drift on Snow

Agreed; even worse, “the choice may soon be yours” somewhat implies a positive thing, like “Have your coffee with or without cream, the choice may soon be yours.”

umm... promise not to make fun of me. Used BMWs of course!

... set the max to 75% of whatever you have in savings, leaving 25% for inevitably repairs...

When I was shopping for my ‘01 BMW 3-series wagon, I also considered Tacomas, but they were far more expensive in similar age and mileage. Yet no one ever says, “ooh you must make a lot of money you drive a used Tacoma.” lol

Can confirm, it’s actually pretty good off-road. A friend rented one on Maui when they first came out and we thrashed it on sand, mud, volcanic rocks, etc and it was great. These are the only pics I could find, but you get the idea.

Can confirm, they are pretty good off-road provided you aren’t on tight trails. A friend rented one of these on Maui when they first came out, and we thrashed it in mud, sand, and volcanic rocks over and over. It did great.

This isn’t an automotive law, but it does pertain to the DMV so here goes:

“Busness owner fails to understand power of internet, fucks up all the things.”

In college we could borrow a school-owned van to travel for club sports - we took one to Maryland from central NY state once, and it died in MD. It would turn over but not start. After many discussions with various people at the school on a Sunday afternoon, getting later and later... we got on a tow truck with the…

This was a great read. I had a friend who, a few years back, somehow got an Audi A8L with a blown engine, and a supposedly good S8 engine, and he was trying to swap it into the A8, along with a manual transmission.

1. The gas station signs should have a mileage ON THE FIRST SIGN BEFORE YOU GET OFF so you know if you’ll have to drive 5 miles into nowheresville or just get off and back on quickly.

I would love to approach a car in this situation in real life and pretend not to know anything about stance. Just look incredulous and say, “Wow! What happened to your CAR, man? Looks like you broke 4 control arms at the same time!?”

It looks to also have a bumper guard on it, which means they frequently park by feel and therefore the dent is strong with this one...

A minimum 2-car garage was on our “must-have” list, until a nice post-and-beam house at the end of a level, paved, dead-end road backed up to a whole bunch of undeveloped forest... with a beautiful mountain view... came on the market. There’s even a clearing at the end of the driveway where our garage will be, some…

I wonder how well it can distinguish among cars that look near-identical except for size.
