I guess I’m the outlier. My hand-me-down beater Cadillac was an auto, but I learned stick because it was an important skill to have. Nobody wants to be caught out as the wuss who can’t drive stick when the situation arises.

“I didn’t do it!”

Wait, Minneapolis/St. Paul already have a MLB team yet they paid $25 million to buy a stadium for a sub-minor-league team? I mean I get a place like Orlando doing that, but you already have your giant baseball attraction. That proverbial base is already covered. That’s just nuts.

Because ‘murica.

Did donkey chariot master survive?

I had a friend who got his license suspended from riding his sportbike like he stole it all the time. His solution was to literally commute about 5 miles each way on the sidewalk on a 50cc minibike at 30mph. This guy was 6’1” or so, btw.

That’s quite the leap from “Haven’t seen every scene of every Mr. Bean show and movie?” which is what would apply here.

Really? Apparently I’ve missed out on the games I’ve been to.

Once? That’s the only way I could ride my Hawk GT long distance on the freeway in remotely cold weather at night. My throttle hand kept freezing/going numb so I’d switch to my left hand, palm up, on the throttle while I warmed my right hand on the engine case.

Well holy shit that’s insane

What’s nice about that option is you can always scout the junkyard and add in a nicer interior later.

And the other 95% of the time your Saab won’t be getting 14mpg like the trucks when they’re going to the mall.

I seriously miss the $400 1996 Ford Ranger that I now realize I still technically own. Jesus, it’s been at my friend’s house that long? Shit, I should go get it. No I shouldn’t; I have five cars in my driveway right now. Damnit.

Well damn apparently I have one thing in common with Hetfield.

That and apparently a passion for rapidly out-aging Hetfield.

And not a minivan. Not sure if I made that part clear about the minivan being a minivan.

Should show Gus Mahon’s minivan.

Yeah that seems like a damn miracle to me. Those VW diesels back then (assuming it’s the 1980s diesel) were not very reliable, and that drivetrain would be receiving about 6 times its factory torque based on how fast that car is.
