You can have a Zen experience with a motorcyle, but they are not anthropomorphic.

Not really. Nobody spends as much time in planes and trains as they do cars. How many planes and trains do you have parked in your garage? That’s what I thought.
Given that 6M Hellcats can be had at MSRP, this is outrageous. The price alone is the devil’s work. I have one coming exactly like the one being shown. Sadly, some more moron will probably buy it.
Cars are the only machines that are anthropomorphic. Cars are not like refrigerators and washing machines. They have personalities. We name them. [Imagine giving a name to your Samsung refrigerator or Whirlpool washer]. Cars become like beloved family members. When they need to be sold or taken to a junk yard, we cry.…
Well, wouldn’t have looked rather ridiculous if I just posted, “In 1977, I had a VW Scirocco, Gen I”? My personal story was to complement the article about someone almost getting hurt at a gas station.
When you think of work horses, the Herk comes to mind. Kind of like the C47 from WW II. Both were/are gunships, the C47 being used in Viet Nam effectively against the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese troops. Interestingly, both planes are called, “Spooky’.
Well said!
The fact that Hunter was even allowed roll with the Angels is incredible. The guy had chutzpah for sure. Anyone here old enough to remember the Altamount Free Concert in 1969? The Rolling Stones had the Angels as body guards. Well, when the crowd got rowdy, the Angels administered some of their justice. Pretty scary.
In 1977, I had a VW Scirocco, Gen I. I went to a local gas station and parked my car next to the pump. I opened the door and was about to put my leg out when kabaam, a car smashed right into the driver’s side door and pushed the door onto my leg. Had I opened the door 1 second later, my leg would have no doubt been…
Yeah, I meant the M12. The M10 was a Formula A/5000 car. Cheers!
Yes Mate, yes. Yes indeed. Oui. The Alpine 110s were so chic, so very French and that is what makes them special. It would be best that I do not have one because I will have one reason to want to be back in the 1960s rather than being bored to death in 2015.
You are funny. I am 63 and have a 23 year old son. Both of us have 2011 Mitsubishi Evo Xs. I have a Dodge Hellcat that I should be getting in a week or so. My last Acura was a 1990 Integra GS, which was a great car. I never, ever have considered an SUV except for having driven a number of SRT Grand Cherokees. You can…
We are definitely talking semantics because we are talking about customer cars from Trojan, not the works team. As I said before, the customer cars were mid-field, which wasn’t saying much a the depth past the first couple of rows was more entertainment than competition. And, don’t confuse the customer cars built by…
The dealership model is so ingrained into the American psyche, that it will be difficult to change. Perhaps the Tesla model along with companies like Costco and Amazon can change that, but it will take time.
This couple is the consummate Viper lover. I remember when they ordered the last Viper of the previous generation when it looked like the Viper was dead. It was an ACR I believe. Since you can never have enough of a good thing, more power to them. If I were a monied person, I would no doubt have 79 ‘69 Camaros or 79…
The Trojan built McLarens such as the Mk 6B, the Mk 12, Mk 8C and Mk 8E were competitive, but not the class of the rest of the field. You had Chaparral for one as a competitor. Then, there was the Ferrari 612, Ti-22 and Shadows providing competition. The customer McLarens usually ran mid field at best.
Except you couldn’t buy the current model. McLaren would gladly sell you a Trojan built car based on the previous year’s design. Even Roger Penske and Mark Donohue could not buy a new model McLaren.
Now we’re talking!
I like it. Now, if they can maintain the design of the concept, it should be a winner. See, I have clamoring for a truck the size of a mid-80s Toyota Hilux. I just don’t understand why the manufacturers want such ginormous trucks. When Chevy came out with the Colorado, it seemed almost as big as a Silverado. Even the…
