no pics because it was a long time ago, but the trunk on a Series 4 Alfa Romeo Spider was the perfect size for two packed-to-the-gills seabags.

it’s just plain fugly.  ain’t no two ways about it.  but it is the perfect ride for the guys who never swore an oath, but own molle gear and replaced their antenna with a matte black .50 cal round

i do.  we grew up with a westphalia and I’d love to have one to take my kids out like I used to

too upright? every modern minivan is adjustable 6 ways to sunday. uncomfortable? says who? I’m 6'1, my brother is 6'3, and the two of us along with 4 other friends (including 2 at 6'1 and 6'5) had a comfortable week+ cross country trip in a toyota previa, which makes the luxuriously large modern minivans look like a…

may be semantics, but you can’t get a pair of wipers for $10.  the prices I saw on the gold box deal of the day was more like $8-9 each, which still makes these a deal

as always whenever a Flex gets featured, I try to inform the gawker community that “Punch Flex” is the new “Punch Buggy.”  There simply aren’t enough Beetles around anymore, but the Flex is the perfect replacement.  It’s distinct, there are enough around to usually see a few on a trip around town, and as an added…

rear entertainment systems are clutch for kids, who don’t (shouldn’t) have phones to look at

somehow almost all of that made it to me living in tobacco country outside greensboro, nc.  i honest to god think it was because I was in the marching band.  we used to see VHS tapes of HBCU bands and find the music they played.

if you knew informer existed, there is 0% chance you forgot it existed

this is neat.  beats using the sky map app and trying to eyeball it in.  but after all the time I’ve spent manually adjusting a telescope, I really want to go to a motorized mount.  but those are a lot more than these quite nice starting prices

Playa’s Club is one of the Top 5 most underrated singles from the 90's.

won’t someone think of the curbs yet to be hopped? 

do you want to know how deep down in planning for my business unit’s 2020 plan? I saw the release date and thought the movie was released this past summer.

see my previous responses. it’s an awesome looking car. but I also wear a 52" jacket and can set places for dinner for four on my shoulders :)

this is my favorite comment on jalopnik in ages.  I’m glad you have a good sense of humor about the peanut gallery

Jim thanks for the reply! when I saw the top-down view of the interior I was having flashbacks to when my brother and I (he 6'3" and me 6'1" and both with shoulders as broad as a barn door) had to list to port and starboard whenever we’d ride in my alfa romeo spider. if you’d ever like the two of us to test out your…

the masses are clamoring for up front seats so close elbows and shoulders touch in a $300K jeep

my dad and mom got married due, in part, to his Austin Healy Mk III 3000. He was in a PhD program at Duke and and she in nursing school. But because she was older, the school housed her in the graduate dorms. His car was notoriously unreliable (he always joked the Brits didn’t become huge players in the 80's and 90's…
