Perhaps you folks don’t realize that throughout Amsterdam (and the rest of Netherlands too) there are typically no barriers/guardrails/fences etc. between parking spaces and the myriad of canals and other bodies of water. The Dutch just expect you will take the normal precautions to keep youself, your bike, and your…

I own the first gen Volt. I thought about the same thing. But in reality no matter how careful I am, I still wind up using gas. For example I will go to work all week long. My commute is 38 miles each way and there is a charge station I use there. I make it there and back all week with no gas. But then for example- if…

Am I the only person who finds the GT-R hideous looking? It’s got the performance specs to shut me up, but man, this thing is ugly. Like, Juke ugly.

Pft I could lose 110 pounds

I always thought it was “proper” or “rubbish”.

Hand over the diesel manual wagons first.

Civic delSol is my secret crush for reals.

I have a feeling that considering the car is already engineered from the ground up as a roadster and therefore wouldn’t benefit greatly from a hardtop for rigidity, our “coupe” will just be a lightweight version of this with a panel and sans the electronics and motors. Which would be wonderful.

I saw one of these two days ago, and was so excited. Rare little thing.

So it went on to world domination, and years of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll?

And lately I’ve been obsessed with the idea of picking up a ‘90s Civic wagon and swapping in some sort of VTEC, yo.

Well, at least that proves my research. Gotta love how the better your credit score is, the less options you have for financing. Cash truly is king.

There comes a point in time when a car is just not worth fixing anymore.

Even though I make money by helping people purchase cars, I frequently attempt to talk someone out of buying something because I don’t like seeing people take on an unnecessary financial burden.

Hey Tom,

That is an intersting take. I’m not saying that people should keep cars that are worn out to the point where they no longer serve the owner’s need. Sometimes you have to cut your losses and move on. I’m saying that too many people think buying a new car is a better financial decision than spending $800 on a brake job…

Bro...if you can’t bro hard enough in your Ranger and you need more Bro from your tow, then maybe you should get that RAM. Just be sure to finance for 96 months and put nothing down. :D

So, your advice would be to hold on to and keep fixing my ranger, rather than get a new 2016 ram 3500 long bed mega cab with dual rear wheels and the cummins? But what if I want to occasionally rip a house down with that sweet 900 lb.ft of torque?

I see nothing wrong with this philosophy because you qualify it with

Dear Tom, I hate my car and it doesn’t have enough power to get out of it’s own way. I will not be trading it in due to lack of funds. Besides it runs and is paid off.
