I have a fake silicone banana that both looks and feels incredibly realistic. I like to offer it to drunk friends and see them try to peel it.

For some reason I LOVE the little feet cutouts.

The Mercedes w123 / Abrams tank combo I doodled during a meeting this morning has an equal chance of materializing.

So a 8-10 year old Nissan Leaf.

Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE Autobiography Dynamic P400e

Are those seats really magenta? With an orange exterior? Yikes.

Love those weird cylindrical gas and volt gauges.

That rear bumper looks a lot like an mid 60s AMC Rambler.

Congrats, I hate it.

It’s $17k amazing but not $30k amazing.

I was getting lunch with a coworker, and when we finished, his truck wouldn’t start. While he was calling a tow truck, someone else in the parking lot backed into his truck. No big deal, it was a beater anyway. But when he tried the starter again, it worked. The fender bender fixed it. Yay!

I was offroading in a Nissan 720 4x4, and the positive battery cable kept coming loose. So I grabbed the only tool I had, vice grips, loosened the cable, found a rusty spot on the body, broke a piece off, wedged it between the terminal and the cable clamp. I tightened it and it was fine. Stayed like that until I sold…

Who are the worst? VW? BMW?

Is taking a 25 year old, rebuilt Jeep Cherokee around the world a smart idea? A car that was sold in the US and maybe a bit in Europe? How will you source parts?

I mean, a gallon of water is 8.3 lbs, so that’s pretty impressive! Better payload than a couple of F-150 trucks combined!

There are several reasons why a Geo Metro (or 90s Honda Civic) is safer. For one, it was designed for use in this country with the accompanying safety tests. There were Suburbans in 1990, so I’m sure larger vehicles were taken into account.

Okay, but I literally started with “To each his own...”

Um, yes, I could argue that they are equal or worse than a motorcycle. A motorcycle is faster (to get out of trouble), more maneuverable, requires a special license with special training, and you’re likely wearing a helmet and protective gear. A kei truck is slow, not much more maneuverable than a regular car, and any…

I mean, to each his own, but they do have a point about the safety aspect. I don’t really want to drive anything where my knees are the crumple zone, especially where every other car on the road is a giant pickup truck.

Bailouts are only socialism if they are applied to poor people. It’s honky-dory if it’s applied to a massive corporation.
