This doesn’t seem that hard to me. Out here in fly-0ver country (aka, Missouri also, unfortunately, also known as Trump Country) there is a tradition of people buying and using beaters as commuter cars. Old but decently maintained cars they use to get back and forth to work, which might be 20-50 miles away. THAT is

This requires wires

It’s absolutely hideous. I want it SOOOOO bad! I would require a hood ornament replacement, though.  Some sort of a golden, topless Valkyrie with LED breasts.  I would be the KING of the trailer park

Lol...he could have driven it to the moon and I still wouldn’t want the POS

Obligatory.....

Oooooooo....heck yeah!  I had a Brown box car (Southern Pacific, I think) that had double doors on either side.  

When you DID manage to jump the train, it was a triumphant moment!  Ever try to jump THROUGH an open box car?  Pretty sure it was impossible but dammit, I tried!

I, too, had the Road and Rail AND the jump. HOURS spent playing that with my step-brother and cousins. I shit myself laughing after a particularly brutal crash. I was 8. I want another one now. I’m 55.

Satellite Radio.  End of list

I wonder what her kids, Shoe and Corn Nut, are up to these days?

In my mid 20's, I bought a 1985 Cadillac Eldorado. Beautiful car. EXTREMELY comfortable. Not even 10 years old. Biggest POS imaginable and parts VERY expensive. After 6 months or so, that car became a festering boil on the ass of my soul. I HATED that car and sold it to the first guy that offered me $500 for it. He

If every single gas vehicle were changed to EV overnight - what would be the solution to replace the Gas Tax?”

Honestly, I didn’t notice that.  Mine had a 4 and was fine.  Not an exciting car by any means but solid and problem free

Had one.  Good car.  Great price.  Hell yes

I’ve been on the union side of a contract negotiation. I knew all the people sitting across from me. Some I considered friends. But not then. I made it very clear that during those times that there were no friends and I would HAPPILY take our smallish union out the door.

In a heartbeat for exactly half that price,  ND as is

A friend had one he called the “BelchFire 5000.”  A fun feature was the fact that the wipers would get out of phase with each and would fight during a rainstorm.  The loser would always get torn off and go flipping down the highway.  It also had a built in cigarette disposal system (hole in floor).  Horrific piece of

Pretty much this.  I’m glad I’m 55.  There is so much shit out there I don’t understand and I’ve come to realize I don’t need to.

I actually liked these back in the day.  Still do.  Couldn’t possibly care any less about the movie tie-in, though.  Cut the price by at LEAST 2/3rds and we could talk.  I’d use it as a weekend cruiser and would enjoy it until it fell apart without worry about whether it’s appreciating in value.  It isn’t.

I loved these cars when they came out and I still think they are very nice but there is no galaxy in the universe that this car is worth half this amount or ever will.
