My God, that Ram Promaster is ugly as shit. I want to scoop one up and make a camper van out of it for some reason. Better get on that, I guess.

Funny thing, I went a on a beer run just now and saw one parked in a local neighborhood. The house it was in front of is worth a good $1.5 million. If there’s ever been evidence for a glitch in the matrix, that was it. It was gone when I came back, but all the other cars were there. Bad edit, lizard people. I caught…

I pour one out for my old 3000GT sometimes. It drank gasoline, not malt liquor. My backyard randomly catches fire ever since, though.

What’s the record for steepest windshield rake? I’m proud to say my C4 Corvette was champion back in the day, but it looks like you basically look over this one and its sole purpose is to protect your polo shirt from bug strikes.

I was pretty disappointed when I went out to my Focus ST to see if it had this. I poked on the B-pillar all over the place. Nothing.

It wouldn’t make sense to have it I guess. The car knows where my key fob is all the time, so if I have it in my pocket, I can just unlock the door. If I leave it in the car, same thing.…

I bought my dad’s Lincoln Town Car as a daily a few years back. One day in standstill traffic, I decided to count the buttons. 93. There were buttons everywhere. On the doors, the sides of the seats, the front of the seats (I didn’t discover those for 18 months until I dropped my phone under there), in the back, in…

Oh, the kind with the volume controls integrated, so if your screen went out while you were listening to Whitesnake at 11, you couldn’t turn it down until you spent thousands of dollars at a dealer? Yes, please!

Seriously, though. I love the big fat screen in my Focus ST. Someone’s got to be a pioneer and get owned…

I thought my body was prepared. It was not. I need a cigarette after that.

I’ll have mine exactly like the 2012 concept. Manual transmission for me, please. Make that an option. PLEASE make that an option!

This would be a shame. I often plan cross country train trips when I’m bored. I would do something like Chicago to Atlanta to New Orleans to Los Angeles to Seattle to St. Paul to Chicago.

I’ve priced routes like this and the cost came out to about $3500 upgrading to a private room whenever possible. That seems like a…

Dick Masheter Ford. Nope. My brain autocorrects it to “Dick Masher.” I know I’m not alone in this one...

EDIT: Replied to the wrong thread. Where’s the delete button around here, anyway? Am I going blind in my old age?

As a central Ohioan, I couldn’t go 10 minutes watching TV or driving 10 miles on I-70 without seeing a Tom Raper ad. I didn’t know he died. :(

Dang, I forgot how handsome those cars are. You never see one, so I’d completely forgotten about them. I’m seeing some pretty nice examples with 10,000 - 30,000 miles going for around $27,500 to $33,000. I could probably snag one for $25,000 - $30,000 with those asking prices. Very tempting...

That’s how that reads. How do people let this stuff get by to production?

I get it. It’s:

What ruins modern convertibles for me are the tall seat backs and roll over hoops. They are an eyesore when looking at the car; there should be nothing protruding vertically except the windshield or prominent fenders. I know some cars have active roll over protection that remains hidden and pops up, but it’s only high…

Protip: A sock full of oranges will extract the information or action you desire but will not leave visible bruises.

I, um, saw it in a movie once. Yeah, a movie.

0-60 is pretty much the only metric out of the performance specifications that a driver can legally test on a public road, so I think it carries much more interest for people than top speed or 1/4 mile times. Looking closer, though, it’s not realistic. No one goes around consistently dumping the clutch at 6000RPM or…

I saw the ME Four-Twelve in person at Detroit in 2004. Mother of GOD pictures do not do it justice. It was absolutely striking and easily the highlight of the show for me that year. Chrylser, you were cool sometimes. Now you just peddle cars that look like you traced a 15-year-old Bentley through wax paper. What…
