“In fact, it was Nissan’s second-best selling car in 2022 after the Rouge with 139,955 sold.”

I made the same good decision twice. I was living by myself in a townhouse with a tiny two-car garage and commuting on the subway. One morning, I woke up and realized that I had two cars and two motorcycles and was struggling to meet my self-imposed minimum of 2,000 miles per year per vehicle. I sold one car and one…

I owned two K75s, purchased new, and they were great bikes.They were not exceptionally powerful, but went faster than I wanted go on public roads. Their smoothness made them good for Interstate runs and I also enjoyed many back roads trips on them. I did two leisurely I95 blasts to Bike week and back from the D.C.…

I am not in the 1 percent. In this case, I am in the 18 percent.

If motorcycle songs count, his “1952 Vincent Black Lightning” is memorable.

As a unrepenant ROF (Retired Old Fart), I would submit a few of the songs from my formative years:

How long does it take to remove/replace the soft top?

And Red.

Lenny Henry as Chef Gareth Blackstock in BBC’s sitcom, “Chef!”

Red is always the answer.

It is hard to argue that Mario Andretti does not belong on the short list in this category and, of course, this type of discussion can never come up with a definitive answer. I would suggest that one should look a little farther back in time for drivers with “cool” careers.

“You know, because its electric models are supposed to all end with “iq.” Like Lyriq, Celestiq, Mystiq, Tryptiq, Vistiq, Lumistiq, etc.”

So a six-foot bed is a long bed? IIRC, back in the day (early 1970s?), Toyota pickups had an optional seven-foot bed.

“Do you think Toyota’s being pragmatic, or coming up with excuses? Maybe a little of both? It’s always a little of both, isn’t it?”

My driving lessons (in 1962) were in my parents’ 1960 Beetle and 1960 Opel station wagon. I took my drivers test in the 1962 Ford Galaxie that replaced the Opel.

How easy ia it to get into and out of.

Back in the day (almost 60 years ago) I daily drove a Bugeye, no one ever called it cute. When I bought a 2002 Civic Si, I had it less than a month before someone told me it was cute.

IIRC, it was the Philadelphia Eagles fans who threw snow balls at Santa Claus, back in the day.

I would suggest that Toyota’s approach to electric vehicles is good business strategy. They are doing relatively well with hybrids and plug-in hybrids and moving toward battery-electric vehicles. Going farther into battery-electric vehicles before our infrastructure is fully ready for them and while many consumers,…
