I’ll never forget, one day at my old job a guy pulls up (he’s friends with most of the people I work with) with a new 4-wheeler in the back of his truck. He’s all excited because he just bought it. The leaning-on-his-truck conversation between us all was not memorable, except for one line: “This is the most expensive…

I am always amused when driving my old truck, to see what people do when they come up behind me. Not only do I drive it a bit slowly - because it’s 58 years old - but as it was a Fire Dept. truck, it says in 4" reflective block lettering on the tailgate: KEEP BACK 500 FEET and the bumper is 12" deep, made of all…
Precisely the reason I stopped watching... any car modification show.
Recently I saw one such lazy person pay dearly for their laziness. The car was parked on a hill facing down; that morning it was sunny and just above freezing. The roof snow slid down onto the windshield, but then a front came through and the temps dropped through the afternoon. By 5:00pm this car was completely…
I’m not saying this is a professional installation, however, it does appear that the belt on the supercharger does go around the crank pulley beyond the a/c pulley.
Thank you for answering the question I couldn’t even be bothered to google, namely, what is the difference between the Corolla hatch and the iM. I agree, these are pretty good little cars for very good value.
Gather ‘round, kids, it’s Story Time with Grandpa:
I have approximately none of those complaints of my E46. Now my father’s 2006 Jetta, on the other hand...
What about... a bigger mini?! My wife has a 2015 Cooper S 4-door and loves it. We have 2 kids and they will fit fine in the back seat for years to come.
If you want to ask a girl out, you don’t send her an email. You also aren’t likely to get a date with a girl in another city unless you’re willing to show up.
“A lot of people are talking about the latest Caravan from Mexico, it’s starting all the way down in Peru and it even has a name. They’re calling it the Dakar - short for Death to America - and these terrorists are on dirtbikes, quads, trucks, cars, something called a UTV (Ultimate Terrorist Vehicle) and they’ve got…
When I was there I had an XJ Cherokee, 4-cylinder 5-speed. It wasn’t awful on gas, it was reliable, roomy and capable enough. I’d do that again in a second.
This is a great summary of the event, thank you. I’ve only been following it since I’ve been able to get good coverage via the internet through various methods. I don’t really follow motorsports, but I love this event.
I mean, your points are not the only reason I wouldn’t buy one over, let’s say, any 5-series on Bring a Trailer. But they are among the reasons, nonetheless.
I’m happy that this comment has more stars than the original, pessimistic one that you are replying to. By a lot.
Funny story, in 2005 I left a 1996 Honda Accord in California and “moved” to Maui, with no real plan and not much money. I immediately bought this:
I see what you mean. It’s 5,888,896 digits to write. Still, averaging a half-second per digit for several hours continuously with no breaks, no one has that kind of dedication let alone a teenager.
That example assumes you could write a 6-digit number legibly in one second, which I don’t think you can (I tried). But even then, 69 days x 24 hrs = 1656 hours. Divided by 180 days per school year that’s 9.2 hours, every school day. Even if you count weekends at about 270 days, that’s still 6+ hours a day, every…
