You're in the Alps during winter you should have something strapped to your feet and be bombing down the hills and riding the lift back up. 

Because when I drive to my dad’s I do it straight through in 18.5-19 hours depending on traffic or road contstruction. I like the drive, and I like having my own car when I get there.

Ugly car gets ugly wheels. Nothing to see here keep moving. 

This car is hideous. I think people just want a cheaper Tesla and this is what they can afford. Everyone I've seen looks like some big eyed fish going down the road. 

I’m 12 and visiting my dad for the summer sitting in the living room playing intellivision. My father goes out in the garage and fires up his 1970 911 and backs it out of the garage. I think nothing of it and keep playing video games. A couple of minutes go by and I hear there horn beep. Whatever I think and keep…

Nothing stops a Mopar

They look so slow now days. 

What you need to do is have the original owner make a tutorial video on how to drive a manual trans as making a clutch last that long is a feat in itself

That intercooler heat soaks extremely bad unless you’re doing 60+. The xr4ti out handles it thanks to IRS. And the electronics in all the 2.3 turbos or really any Fords of this era are archaic. Chrysler mopped the floor with them in the engine management game. So much so there's a whole group of 2.3 turbo guys putting…

Agreed, you're really just getting sucked along in a vacuum. 

If the roads are that bad in NYC then maybe a trail rated Jeep Grand Cherokee is a better choice

3" straight pipe side exit exhaust at full boar through the hills of Orange county will have the ocsd hunting you. :).  

Who buys a 2wd suv? Oh that’s right the posers in California that never leave the freeway.

Great write up as usual David. I’m not in the electric car bandwagon yet as the range is just way too short for me to have as my only mode of transportation. There’s a guy here in my town with the big bad Tesla that loves to romp it off the line every time the light turns green with custom plates that go along with…

“While the strong economy that began nearly 10 years ago continues to enjoy some growth”

This is the dumbest idea ever. High gas prices kill the economy hard. Just look at 2008. Not all of us live in a place where mass transit makes any sense. A very small percentage of the US actually does. Everything people buy takes a huge hit if they have to spend $100 to fill their tank. It just targets the poor and…

I picked up a dohc 2.4 turbo that ran just fine with 60k miles on it out of a wrecked PT for $500 about 6 years ago. You can find them for a Grand or less all day long. 

My dad worked for Mattel when intellivision was out. As a 5 year old Auto racing was great. But then so was b17 bomber. Burger time ruled. I liked the controllers. Lots of great times with friends and my dad playing that system. It's still in my garage somewhere with all the games. We pilfered my dad's console to fix…

I just wish they were more accessible to buy in bulk than trying to hunt them down in the j yard

Big deal. 100 is nothing. Hell just last spring I had to do 100 to pass 2 tour buses doing 85!
