I used mine for grocery shopping all the time. I could easily get a week's worth in the trunk without breaking any potato chips. It was well suited for running errands and still comfortable enough to put on a couple hundred miles a day, provided you replaced the stock seat.

I see an article like this and it makes me think about where the automakers went wrong. Specifically, I think back to the various Volvo 240s I’ve owned over the years and how well the cloth upholstery (not the leather or vinyl) held up, as well as the carpets. Or the old W123 Mercedes, with its indestructible MB-tex.…

I’d drop a Honda GL1800 motor in an MGB or Triumph Spitfire.

double the HP, lighter, lower CG and a sequential 6 speed, already shaft drive, so it would be engine mounts and exhaust pipes and done.

As a software and (sometimes) application developer who has developed applications and web services for [major American automaker redacted], you may have missed the forest for the trees.

That and red paint is/was cheap.

Who knows?

When I was younger, during the Cold War, the Republicans screamed on a daily basis about how the Democratic party was a bunch of Communists who “love the Ruskies” while also loving minorities and the “gays” as they put it.

Now, the Republican party seems content to let Russia, China, and Iran fool around with…

I’m glad I was sitting down.

But not everybody needs to tow 9,000 pounds and get 4 mpg.  

The human body is an amazing thing, it will learn to fight these germs.  Or you could try to wipe them out with your harsh chemicals then they evolve to become super germs that our bodies can’t fight.  Anti bacterial is the fat of the 2000's we are going to figure out that all this fighting was doing more harm than…

Honda’s 10-speed is their own design, and Honda’s first auto trans with planetary gears (their other autos work more similarly to a manual trans).

This is a pretty fantastic looking car. I’ve watched some reviews and it seems like a perfect 2nd car for near-the-city-folk family. We are just waiting for my wife’s car to keel over and die, but all she needs is to be able to drive a few miles to work and then run errands. Any big trips and we’ll probably take my…

Give me an electric car I can use to power my house with instead of a backup generator, and I am sold.

Before the “Blazer” badge ever adorned the SUV variant of the Chevy S-10 or the new crossover that everyone’s so disappointed by these days, it graced the sheetmetal of the boxy Chevy K Series. The yellow 1979 two-tone one above is drop-dead gorgeous.

People don’t understand the Prelude, until they drive it. It’s the last of a “certain generation” of Honda, when they were punchy little fun-rockets. (The age of the Civic Si, Integra GSR, etc.)

And yet, the democratic candidates all seem to be in a contest to be the farthest left.

Yeah, I figured it’d take about 6-7 trips or so, but that’s ok. I can also backup the truck to the place I want it to be and off load it as I go in the project. When I get to the next section, I can get another load. With the delivery option, I have to have it all delivered at once and they’re going to dump it a place…

The Rampage was awesome. Dodge RT minivan platform (08-present caravan). 5.7 Hemi mated to a TH-425 fwd transaxle from an Oldsmobile Toronodo.

Exactly, even if they have the money and want luxuries like cooled/heated seats, they will still seek the “tough” image, which a BMW does not have.
