Another Patrick, Danica an experienced racer by some accounts, would have done the exact same thing as Mark.

The fun part will be getting back into an automatic and attempting to clutch a downshift.

Is there somewhere I can look up the “real world” MPGs for vehicles?

I was at a 6.75. This brought me up to 9.875.

Right, but in regard to freezing them to 2020 standards thru 2026, the 6yrs could be seen as a rollback. Improvement will still continue regardless as manufacturers compete for market share. I think we’re on the same page.

1st gear: I don’t disagree with this and here’s why. All 50 states need to be following the same standards. Heck, there should be a world regulation to set a world standard that all auto manufacturers adhere to. What I do disagree with is rolling back emissions requirements. What I would hope happen is a freeze on…

My initial thoughts on the National Security implication were that American manufacturing jobs were target. Is an economic model that relies on an increasing level of imports is at a security risk? I think of the sanctions placed on other nations... what would that do to the US?

If you say race weeked, well, hello there neighbor.

Is it an idiotic thing to say? Both are safe without the human component and not every driver/gun owner is irresponsible.

never point at something you don’t intend to shoot. to shoot. Shoot and Kill are not the same.

Automakers lobby to change standards.

Manuals are disappearing because of an unfortunate gif in which a Subaru owner appears to perform a hand job on the shifter.

1st Gear: Great. Can’t wait for the straight pipe ring reminiscent of Car’s & Coffee exits now in a full size truck.

2nd Gear: Didn’t Porsche do this with VW and end with VW owning Porsche? I don’t know what Daimler is worried about. Geely shot the rocket ship that is now Volvo into orbit. Mercedes certainly wants its care to have a Chinese market share.

I’m confident a mechanical failure of something will cause a long enough delay that the August Concours in Monterey will be met via trailer.

I don’t know if fuel efficient but I’d like to find a yellow Dodge Colt RS Twin Stick in awesome condition.

Neutral. This is what makes the gas price rise interesting to me. On one side we have the gov’t trying to ease emissions and a market that is consuming larger/less efficient vehicles all the while saying we need stricter emission controls. On the other side, we have fuel prices rising to a point that will start to…
