Stuff like this teen derailing a train and another teen starting the Eagle Creek Fire by shooting of a Roman Candle during a burn ban is why proposals to lower the voting age to 16 are insane. I question why the minimum driving age isn't raised to 18, should we trust people who do this with a Tesla Model S Plaid?

My recollection is that the 4+3 was the one with the solenoid operated pin in the shif gate to force skip shifts. I'm less harsh on the late C3 because of its swoopy looks

Reluctant NP, because at that price you can run it until the Northstar blows up, which it will.

I guess Hagerty was right and GMT400 prices are taking off. Granted it looks either low mileage or restored but usable trucks can be still be had for $3-5000.

I'll nominate the 1984 Corvette.  Punishing ride, flaccid TBI 350, and a weird manual that forced skip shifts for fuel economy.  While the C4 redeemed itself with better suspension,  better engines and a normal 5 speed the debut model was terrible.  

I think that this was always a sporty car rather than a sports car. Think of it as a downsized 57 Thunderbird and not an alternative Miata

My mom is only 83 but just donated her car. It will be fine, she lived in a small city and walked for years and lives in assisted living with more social interaction than when she lived in a condo. I'm more worried about my in-laws who live in a house full of stairs. 

That's possibly stupider than the the kid who shot a Roman candle into a ravine and started the Eagle Creek Fire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Creek_Fire?wprov=sfla1

It probably looked great in the renderings. 

Nice bike not so nice price. I rode one in 1991 and it was great fun but cramped and I had just bought an old BMW so I had neither $ nor space. They sold poorly when new but have a following.

I’ve ridden a touring model and apart from having to forget everything you know about riding a motorcycle they are fun and ideal for anyone who has issues with riding a two wheeler. The Spyder or Ryker are way more sensible than both conventional trikes and the Polaris Slingshot style 3 wheeler. In my experience the…

That's not a bug it's a feature. Being attention getting and controversial is the whole point of the Cybertruck and the CyberCucks who buy them are either doing it to flaunt wealth or show fealty to Lord Elon. If you really want an electric pickup,  Rivian and Ford do it better than the wank panzer ever will, but they…

Nothing says community friendly policing like an ugly angular armored personnel carrier wannabe. Of course the cops want an aggressive looking vehicle for "community engagement" and are all over the wank panzer. I bet they put Punisher skulls and thin blue line flags on it if they get one.

The Maverick conversion uses the electronic T handle shifter from an F150. They are plug compatible so you just need to trim the faceplate. No mechanical hacking or holes in the floor required.  

I typically see only two stalks so I generalized.

I actually like floor shift automatics because that facilitates having the wiper controls on the right stalk and headlights on the left stalk. I’ve driven automatic and manual cars like that for decades. I’ve also had column shift cars with wiper controls on the left so I can adapt. I see no logic in knobs or buttons…

I am now very thankful to work in small business IT and to be on vacation.  None of our clients run CrowdStrike, and any hosted service they rely on is somebody else's problem. 

No crossover is cool, and I own one.  

Isn't bait and switch and usurious loans SOP for car dealers? I  guess these guys were extra bad

I mentioned Atkinson and Sayle because had columns in Car magazine so they had some auto journalism backgrounds.  A truly interesting show would star the late LJK Setright.
