Aldi sells Simms brand biltong. We usually have a few bags in the cabinet. I don’t know how authentic it is.  Its sugar free, and doesn’t have as much flavor as most supermarket jerky, but it is tasty.

Not necessarily. Revolving accounts and loans are factored differently in credit scores. Also, credit scoring is basically 1 part math, 1 part mystery algorithm, and 2 parts bullshit.  Each scoring system uses a slightly different recipe.  

I think there is a record player in there too. Every time I’m stopped next to one in traffic, they are usually cranking some old arena rock that sounds like its played on a Victrola and piped through a megaphone on an AM radio.

If they would have called this bike the Discorectangle in 1979, we’d all still be wearing polyester bellbottoms.

Everybody out here talking about Camrys...what about the time Toyota put their biggest V6 in their mommy mobile?   

This is a WTF blast from the past. You don’t see to many adds targeted at successful cult leaders, human traffickers, and televangelists these days.

I’m surprised the Vehicross is even available. Its one of those cars I used check for every now and then to see if I could get one for $2k or so. Since the used carpocalypse, most have been listing for close to $8k, with a few nicer ones going for $15k+. This one seems to be priced well, given the current market.

If they would have just looked at the panel gaps, they would have known it was domestic.  

I don’t like Challengers. But if the Hellcat prices keep falling, I may not be able to resist getting one.

Now playing

Its the software tuning and integration in the Demon that makes it “special”. Engine, transmission, traction control, and the active suspension all work together to optimize a drag launch, maintain traction without cutting power, facilitate weight transfer, and keep the front end from lifting at speed. Its a whole

You’re allowed to get some of this stuff wrong in a private party listing. If you work in the car business and your job is to sell cars, you should get the fundamentals right.

I paid about $5000 for my 1987 Nissan Pulsar in 1992. It was an interesting car, but I feel like $5k was too much 30 years ago. No way I’d spend this much on a worn out base model automatic today.

Hated it when it was new. I don’t love it now, but I get the appeal of a V8 powered RWD roadster that isn’t designed to crush the Nürburgring. This and the SC430 seem to make a lot more sense these days.

Hello fellow weirdo! I too am a sports/sporty car enthusiast that needs something other than a solid fixed metal roof. Particularly on small cars.  Its a deal breaker that is keeping me out of some otherwise great cars.

I think the most disturbing part of this whole story is

That’s what you get when you hire Yoda to do your editing.

The “an” before a consonant sound breaks my brain every time. I’m seeking help from an therapist.

According to Motor Trend, the Lightning is 6,500 lbs, about 1,000 lbs heavier than a comparable V6 F-150.

You bring up a good point, and now I’ve spent 10 minutes I’ll never get back.
