I’ve looked at Rangers but I don’t want to take on payments. My current truck is an F150 Super Cab long bed, all 20' of it. I keep gear in the cab and carry a passenger in the back seat about twice a year. On the other hand I get a lot of use out the 8' box. 

I like the 780 as Volvo's sharpest looking car of the era but not $10,000 worth of like with that many ticking bombs in it ND

Where is the foam going in EV tires? The only use of foam in actual tire construction is the puncture resislayer under the tread of some bicycle tires like the Michelin City. The other use of foam is in construction equipment and makes the tires flat proof but very noisy and the Bib Mousse in MTB and dirt bike tires

I am completely unsurprised that CyberCucks and Apple Vision nincompoops are an intersecting set. I will ridicule them mercilessly.  

How many billionaires harbor Captain Nemo fantasies? More importantly how many have seen renderings and spent actual money?

After perusing the photos of the front axle I can say the hack job under the shiny paint is a scary steering page candidate but it side steps SEMA Fails because there is,a front driveshaft.  I still favor "kill it with fire" or "unpimp ze auto!" over actually driving this abomination.

This the brown diesel manual wagon of pickups.  In this class of truck the extended cab and 6' bed is actually a good balance since the larger cab offers extra leg room and secure storage.  FWIW 7 1/2' was typical for compact long beds like my 93 Ranger, which left me wishing I had the Super Cab because the 93-97

Traffic engineers love roundabouts,  my city is reworking intersections right and left. On a good day they are actually faster, as we discovered one night when I used the newly opened roundabouts on one street to beat my son the delivery driver. 

I want to see a level crossing integrated into a “magic roundabout” with mini circles on the outside.

In addition to the Benford dumper that got picked, the Case 455 track loader deserves a mention because it has 3 brake pedals and 4 gearshifts making it completely unlike a Caterpillar track machine. The rundown is right and left steering brake pedals, combined brake pedal, forward-neutral-reverse shift, high-low

The big question now is if small EVs in the US are a build it and they will come scenario or a genuine lack of market demand? As with the sea of colorless cars because dealers order the least common denominator, are the lack of small cars because buyers aren't interested or dealers and manufacturers don't provide

Considering how few people knew the Arteon existed much less bought one I’m surprised it lasted this long. The four door coupe like the Mercedes CLS and Audi A7 is a thing of the past, erased by the man made horror of the SUV coupes like the BMW X6

Putting an Only Fans link on your car is pretty cringe. 

The value of winter tires is determined by where you live and how often you drive in very cold weather or snow. When I lived in the Portland Oregon area I got by on all seasons and chains because snow and ice are rare at low altitudes West of the Cascades and I could stay home when it was really bad. When I moved to

Does the Lego Dulles include some mobile lounge vehicles? Those are almost as iconic as the airport itself  

The weirdest car I’ve drive is a Citroën 2CV. The most unusual thing I’ve “driven” is a Penn Central electric multiple unit train when I was 4 years old. We moved a few yards down the platform and I applied the brakes.

I’m glad the 2CV shifter made it in since comments were broken. They are trippy at first but you adapt. The Renault 4 used the same style of shifter.

I always wanted to try one of those. Our Volvo was an automatic, and prior to 1975 the overdrive was controlled by a steering column stalk.

I am amused, clout seeking YouTuber high on his own supply gets a harsh lesson in economics and accounting. Or YouTuber gets the clickbait he really wanted but I’m hoping for the former.

The sub headline still says “Tell us your secret 1973-1983 desires and we will validate your choices in the comments”
