If someone wants to pass, move out of the passing lane. I’m preaching to the choir on a car blog, but go ye make disciples preach to the ends of the Earth.

at the end of the day they fear that minorities will come in and be better than them.

It was kinda founded by organized crime really. Just a bunch of bootleggers racing.

Turkatron: Is that taco pie?
Meatwad: Mmm-hmm.
Turkatron: Taco pie!
Meatwad: I added food coloring because it’s a holiday. But it turned black, because I added all the food coloring I had. Then I ate this butter straight out of the tub, because it tastes good. There’s a reason behind everything.

Make it a real life ReVolt with life-sized cars. Weapons need to be more Acme Corporation style rather than military grade.

Since the first (of a dozen or so times) I was rushed to the hospital for Kidney stones I don’t block anyone; I just assume anyone driving “like a jerk” has somewhere important to be and let them by. My self-satisfaction isn’t worth a complete stranger passing away in traffic because I decided it was my responsibility…

Since we are on the subject of headlights, Almost every state, I believe, has a wipers on headlights on rule. Why don’t manufacturers just implement this as a safety feature? It kills me when it is rainy and overcast and I barely see a car because their headlights aren’t on.

The way the gears are cut is why cluthless shifting is easier in a tractor trailer than in a car. Cars use an angled cut to keep things quiet, while trucks use a straight cut because it’s built for work...fuck your comfort.

True as well. But speaking for myself personally, it’s the much narrower and twitchy window of opportunity to match the shift that makes it harder for me on a car’s box.

So last summer I took the Italian mistress to the pool with my son. Upon pulling into the parking lot, the clutch pedal slammed to the floor. Weird. We went for a swim, then it was time to get home.... Hmm. She is Italian after all.

She has a co-driver who helps her a lot. She also wears a helmet and a harness.

It’s certainly one way to drive a Subaru. For those of us without a designated race car and a closed rally course, the preferred way to drive a Subaru through curvy mountain roads is to do so carefully, with our kids in the back, on the way to go skiing or mountain biking. With, of course, a quick detour on snowy…

In an automatic... I certainly drive with both feet in my stick. Please don’t punch me in the face.

The fact someone is paid to interact with you doesn’t give you a license to be a dick to them or intentionally make their life difficult.

You’re one of those people who makes life shitty for everyone else, and doesn’t understand why they are unhappy, right? Its the first part of it - it actually doesn’t make you feel better to act like a dick all the time, even though no one can stop you! Take that to the tailor, try it on for a month, see how it goes.

I’m “that guy at the dealership”. I work at a VW Dealership in CT, at the service counter.

I didn’t sign up for this shit. It’s not my job to play damage control for VW corporate.

I don’t work for VW. I work for an independently owned and operated franchise dealership that has a contract with VW.

I didn’t do a…

Yeah but it’s also called human decency to not treat the dude like shit because he is taking your car back. A car that you are getting paid out on. It’s not his personal fault that VW cheated, so no need to make him feel like it is or attack him like it is. It’s his job to process your return of the car. Not his job…

I think it’s pretty insulting that this lawyer characterizes getting a late-night snack at McDonald’s as a “quintessentialy American activity”. What about rafting down the Mississippi? What about composing jazz? Fighting dumb wars? This guy hates America, that much is certain.

Shoutout to your wife owning a Golf R. Much respect brother. You chose wisely.

They really did. But the same goes for the GTI’s 2.0 and the TDI as well. It’s all about the BOOST, baby!
