Reading this gave me waves of nostalgia. I had a regular Discman (not the “car” version with its added skipping protection), and I drove a Honda CRX, so it skipped ALL THE TIME. I bought an in-dash Pioneer CD player (with detachable face!) with my Xmas money my junior year in HS, and installed it myself, because…

41yrs old here.... I remember how big a deal Discman were when they started coming out with the anti skip protection on them, and they were high dollar. My first head unit was a Kenwood and it was a solid unit, no removeable face plate. It was stolen from my car the first week I bought it.

Oh man, in my Rodeo I had an Alpine head unit that was AM/FM and a couple of inputs and would play MP3 files. No CD or tape player at all. One of the inputs was USB so I bought an external hard drive and loaded a few thousand songs on there. I thought it was the greatest thing ever.

god CDs were just the worst for listening to music when moving in any way. Portable CD players were great until I realized a) they will fit in no pocket, go get a backpack, and b) skip skipskip hope you didn’t like that riff there skipskip hey the CD is scratched now.

Jason gonna get called a pedo 

I will be happy to go on record that I think this is one of the top 5 best looking cars of this decade.

Isn’t Gil in the Simpsons funny?

Eh, I think it’s totally understandable. When feminists became a household name it was middle class+ white women demanding respect from middle class+ white men. I’m paraphrasing but that’s what it appeared to be.

They should post another one that says: “I am a former social media account manager.”

I just finished Country Music by Ken Burns on PBS which is the only reason why I knew most of these folks.

BTW, I HIGHLY recommend that documentary.  You just have to be a fan of music to enjoy it.  

I don’t ever regularly listen to country but I enjoy that video.

So assuming the Corvette team didn’t just make shit up, the only way forward visibility would be decreased is if the C8 tested sits higher than the C7 they tested. I suspect C&D f’d up their standardization, like triangulating head position from distance from pedals and distance from the wheel.

No love for the Generation 11 Thunderbird?

It’s got a compact profile, charmingly cartoony 60s roundness, and a V8 making acceptable ponies up front. Its small sales window and poor public reception means it’s depreciated to well within the seller’s budget, even for a leather-swathed, well-appointed model.

Yes, it’s…

Only 4 carriages, likely an empty commuter rail train, looks like it’s running Bombardier BiLevel coaches which utilize both disc brakes and tread brakes, and the train was probably already slowing down when the driver realized there was an obstruction, so this was basically a best case scenario for slowing down a…

While I, personally, and many would buy the Palisade as it’s a perfectly reasonable if not handsome addition to anyone’s driveway that will do many things remarkably well at literally a third of the price.

I always love hearing about tween girls sleep over movies because when I was a tween boy(before the internet..I’m old) our goal was one of two things

It’s so bloody annoying...I stopped reading the article after a couple paragraphs full of environmental bullshit.
