Yeah that's pretty much the greatest commercial of all time. It's not often you get to film real life revenge and turn it into a product endorsement.

The added confusion of this story being on a Gawker media site doesn't help either. I remember when Fox Sports' Jason Whitlock praised ESPN's Stuart Scott after he had bitterly derided him years before, and Deadspin's reaction was frothing incredulity that Whitlock could change his mind about somebody, and that was sev…

I see a pair of them sometimes, and an occasional Young all by itself.

Yeah, somehow it's been twisted into "Speed costs money. How fast do you want to go?" and even Car & Driver gets it wrong. Bizarrely it's what came along after the clever version that had been around forever.

The Florida swamp and not wanting to smell like burned oil anymore are why I got rid of probably my most beloved car. I never could get the air to work right in that turbo Volvo 240 wagon.

Oh c'mon, there's a new Graham-Nash in my local junkyard every day of the week.

I spent a very long time driving around on belts-showing tires before hydroplaning incidents (and finally earning decent money) got me to the level where I can now afford used tires when I get down to the wear bars, instead of when the carcass was the real wear bars.

That's like the ol' adage "Fast, reliable, or cheap. You can only pick two."

That's kind of amazing that you managed a head gasket being blown that badly but the rod was still in tact. Looks like an Elring gasket too. On mine I had a couple minor HG blows, but the rod and piston damage tended toward horrendous.

"Finally, this particular combination of discounts are only available to California residents."

"Just because the turbo can put out more boost, that doesn't mean the connecting rods will stay inside the engine bay."

Most people don't understand the difference between "reliability" and "durability"

You actually spent two posts theoretically bitching about an accessory in a car that can be removed in about five minutes?

Not sure what makes one of the most reliable luxury cars of all time "horribly unreliable." That you got so many stars calling a car that routinely exceeds 300,000 miles "unreliable" shows just how much traction that old 'European cars break stuff' trope still has.

You didn't have any arguments. You just said some crazy shit on the internet, and I made fun of you for it.

The bold lettering and exclamation points are the hallmarks of someone so proud of their opinions that they really, really want you to see them, and so insecure about them that they require exclamation points to really drive them home, and played with the seriousness of a true believer, with no trolling/sarcasm…

Hell, Ford was still using 5-digit odometers into the 1990s, if that says anything to you about what even Ford thought of Ford.

Yeah when I saw that I was like "whaaa?" You can't find one at every corner drugstore like Plutonium, but there are still a ton of them out there. And by that I don't mean 3/4 of one car.

Oh so the tank isn't a tank. Thanks, pedanti-bot

I have to pull for them because they're the only team giving the AAC any legitimacy right now. They're f'ing carrying the entire conference. Looking at you, UCF.
