Incredibly messed up. A quick view of Jerry's wiki page shows that all three of his kids are messed up. I can't help but wonder if Jerry has some demons in his closet or if his wife happened to carry some bad genes. The odds of them having three kids with some severe issues like that are too much to be coincidental.

I have always wondered why, for years and years (until the Bugatti finally knocked it out) in the back of R&T's road test the McLaren was listed as an Ameritech McLaren. Never knew but now I have the answer.

I like it. I'll be curious to see the details and specs. As long as it's 4WD and has decent power I'd be all over this instead of a Patriot (which my wife and I are considering) or a Compass.

Surprised the GMC Envoy XUV wasn't on here. I have no idea how many they sold but it couldn't have been as many as they wanted.

Escaping jail bothers me, but having his wealthy parents pay for rehab is OK in the sense that it's less of a burden on taxpayers, so fine, whatever I guess.

Dip into their F1 partnership and call it the Infiniti Red Bull. Wait no, that's stupid...

It reminds me sort of of a Jeep AMC Eagle coupe. If that makes sense at all. I like it though, very different.

My ex-girlfriend bought me a remote controlled version of the Scion xB they gave to the guy whose Escort was two chassises welded together. She bought it because I also drive an xB. I never saw the show though.

Billy Joel has had several car accidents and I believe only one or two of them were alcohol related. He is just not a very good driver. He drove his VW Beetle into a house back in '04. At the time it was his third crash in two years. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/life/people/20…

Koenigsegg, Lamborghini Gallrado and Murcielago took me years to get down.

You know how the other day you asked what car I would import? This one. In 25 years. Although the MK I Cupra R would do too. That would only be what? Only ten more years...

If a car is stripped of its VINs does that make it eligible for the crusher under a law somewhere? It could have been stolen and then the VINs stripped off everything (though that would be admittedly hard to do). Once it was recovered by the police they had to send it to the destroyer?

Honda CR-Z and Lexus CT Hybrid. Neither are particularly ugly cars but both aren't sporty or interesting to drive either. They aren't even very good as hybrids. A car that fails on both accounts should be scrapped.

Ferrari added their logo to a regular (already) expensive Hasselblad and added $10k to the price.

In fact, Dice doesn't really tell jokes at all. He lacks the media range of a Morton Downey or the metalhead mass appeal of Axl Rose, but he has exactly their audience, plus the tailwind of the late-1980s fervor for "comedy" behind him and the demagogue's genius for the lowest common denominator. In the last year, his

McLaren MP4-12C. That's not a car name, that's a computer code or a tax form or something else boring and mindnumbing. It should be called something like the McLaren McSupercar or Precision Fast Machine.

I didn't even realize it was still being made...oops.

Since it's in my backyard, I'll nominate the Studebaker plant in South Bend, IN. It's still there and it's a reminder of the once-budding car industry in Indiana that is often forgotten in the shadow of Michigan. There, in fact, still are dozens of cars made in Indiana, from Subarus to GMs and Chryslers and Camrys

A gentlemen did that around here last spring. Although he was drunk and his car ended up in a waterway, but basically the same thing, thought the walking path was a road and then failed in his 3-point turn. Story is here
