I’m surprised that no one has figured out how to do a seatbelt interlock for car seats. One that would go off when the ignition is turned off and the door is opened. I realize that it would probably require new LATCH standards, one that provides some sort of electrical connection, but if we can figure out how to do sel…

Waist line, not waste line! ;-)

Heck, even the family truckster looks better, in back!

Hate it. The last cars to look good with taillights in the bumper were the early ‘80's GM midsize wagons (Chevy Malibu, etc.) and Chevy El Camino.

My first new car was a 1975 Gremlin - my other options were Pinto or Vega . . . $3500!

Mazda used to make a GLC - it was just a “Great Little Car”!

We actually got a check back from Carmax because they got the license fee wrong by something like $20 . . .

Electric seats with MEMORY should always be an option, especially if there’s more than one driver using the vehicle.

And you thought Mustangs were scary? My Scrambler with a 4-cylinder Iron Duke had crappy “handling” and this doesn’t look much more advanced!

Dealer pinstripes, flashing third brake lights, spinner hubcaps and stancing.

Back in the day, some police departments used them, primarily for traffic enforcement -

The ‘69 Camaro looks pretty good with inset headlights . . .

I had an ‘83 Jeep Scrambler with an Iron Duke in it. After the 4 speed crapped out, the local transmission shop found a used 5-speed that would fit, to replace it, and I ended up with something that had NO power in 5th gear . . .

Naughty pine or knotty pine?! ;-)

Good luck with the carb at higher altitudes . . .

City transit buses usually have three of those floor switches - the center one for the high beams, and the other two for the left and right turn signals, respectively!

The temporary bracing (the mobile transport unit) was removed after the span was placed, without any temporary bracing put in place, afterwards. Just having a temporary center support (between the opposing traffic lanes and not blocking traffic) would likely have prevented this.

The finished design had this bridge supported from the top, with multiple cables. Apparently, someone forgot to calculated the design loads for when this section was supported just from both ends, with no intermediate supports. (Structural elements in tension can be much smaller than those in compression.) Just…

I know I’ll get ripped for this, but this was a mom trying to fly with two young children AND a dog?! What’s the degree of difficulty / insanity of trying to do this and NOT expecting problems?!

One of my grandfathers had a white, mid-sixties 4-door Lincoln convertible (with, for some reason, a siren), while my other grandfather had ‘49 DeSoto DD. For me, they were both way cool and two different versions of luxury . . .
