Kudos to the bus driver for slowing and swerving - *just* enough to keep this kid from having a very bad day

Apparently none of you have ever met my wife. I tried to teach her on her 1971 Super Beetle and my 84 CJ7 (in 4Lo just to make it easier to let out in 1st) and her philosophy was 'Me no need silly teachings, me mash pedal now and yell at you when me stall for be such bad teacher RARRRR'

I'm pretty sure the Toyota Corolla/Corona clutch pack is seventeen inches of Kevlar. Same for the ones in the HiLux. Pretty much anything crammed behind a 20/22R motor will outlast the vehicle it was placed in. True story.

People from Alabama do totally even know - when I lived there every third truck was maroon (sorry, Crimson (tm)) with a grey stripe. An officially licensed Houndstooth Edition with a factory endorsed Calving-peeing-on-a-war-eagle decal and matching Chevy Logo TruckNutz(also (tm)) would probably bankrupt the state as…

This should pair nicely with their new Kid Rock marketing strategy.

Christine's '57 Fury has to be right up there with Herbie.

Also if you're counting terrible TV d-movies, the '73-ish Charger from Wheels of Terror was equal parts child kidnapper and self-aware hoonmobile.

Animated cars like the Disney ones should be in their own category - they're completely self-aware characters that…

I'm thinking they drew inspiration from these CRTs:

No doubt - I'm more referring to the marketing pitch by Subaru. That said, I always wanted a Brat, but at 6'4" that'll never happen.

I gotta say, I was just browsing through the Jaloposphere tonight and the top photo really grabbed my attention. I hadn't seen your preceding posts, but I saw the shot of that fender and said out loud 'Holy smokes that dude just bought an 80/800!.' I was more excited than any post I've seen on Jalop probably ever.

My…

Considering that the Hellcat and the Nismo both can punch high 10's in the 1/4, this could be truly epic without being too embarrasing for either marque. I would look like this:

Nismo beats the Hellcat out of the hole badly, but by mid track the disgustingly sexy hemi opens up and the Hellcat surges forward - they…

Good thing they didn't run across this guy

I'm also from the South - and you just convinced me that when I get my Challenger Hellcat we should team up and make this happen.

This exactly. I used to have a 4 hr weekly commute from Jacksonville to Tampa and I was always trying to beat my own record and cursing Google maps.

For the record, I was usually tired and hallucinating by hour 3. Central Florida is BORING, y'all.

In before all the 'well at least it didn't catch fire' jokes

Apparently you haven't sat in any Chevrolet made since the Cold War. Their design language could be summed up as 'Fisher Price meets 1970's Zenith television'

AMC was born from a Nash and Hudson merger, then later acquired Jeep from Kaiser.

The Eagle 4x4's were far ahead of their time. When Subaru's commercials for the Outback touted it as the 'world's first sport utility wagon' I couldn't help but laugh. 15 years too late on that one, Subie.

"I gotta air down to go over these dunes, when I'm done - anybody got a portable compressor and about 4 extra days on their hands?"

How bad was the actual damage? An older car not worth much anymore is very easy to total without getting in a life-threatening accident.

Your buddy's ex-wife does naked cam chat for a living? That's probably why she's his ex-wife.

Honorable Mention to Willys, progenetor of Willys-Overland. The man's name was pronounced 'Will-iss' (as in 'Whatchoo talkin 'bout, Willis?) but everyone says 'Will-eez'
