Minor correction - all Astro vans (along with their GMC cousins) had the same wheelbase but two different length bodies, with the difference entirely in the rear overhang. This is one of those longer ones. NP, BTW.

This reeks of OPP, other people’s projects. There are simply too many modifications, for me, especially the rubber-band tires. N.D.
I’m surprised that the “super-sized” pickup truck and full-sized SUV front ends/hoods/grilles didn’t make the list. Sadly, we already have/need front-view cameras for off-roading, it won’t be too long until we need them for parking lots and school pick-up lines, as well.
More frequent testing probably is not “the answer” since people will be way more focused on passing that specific test. More severe sanctions for things like poor lane discipline or not “going on the green”, be it from aging or texting, would probably be more effective in catching the small problems before they become…
I’m a Boomer and I’ve never understood these. They’re not good ‘vettes, they’re not good pickups, and they’re not good convertibles, plus their styling is pretty cartoonish. For $30K+ there are far better options for a weekend cruiser, a Cars and Coffee conversation piece, or for hauling stuff back from Home Depot. ND!
This is kinda like the old trope, “What do call the guy who graduated last in his class in medical school? Doctor!” This is just another older Mustang, it just happens to be one of the first in this particular model run. It’s in nice shape, but it doesn’t deserve a $5K or $10K premium just for being the oldest…
That would be water “ingress”, not water “egress” . . .
You missed the Zimmer Golden Spirit, a rolling baroque mashup of total over-the-top tastelessness!
One of the unintended consequences of rating airlines based on their “on time” performance.
Because it’s a one-trick pony? Living life a quarter mile at a time?
I was around when these were new and I do NOT remember them being offered, probably because they’re so ugly. That being said, while the specs and price are good, I just can’t get past the looks. ND, all day!
Actuaries figure out the odds and insurance companies need to price their products accordingly, in order to stay in business. Consumers don’t want to/”can’t” pay the high (and increasing) premiums, so they implore their politicians to “do something”. Unless the repair and replacement side of the equation is regulated,…
“Luxury” half-ton, full-size, crew-cab, short-bed pickup trucks. They’re just large, upscale cars with impractical “trunks” and way-too-high step-in heights. Plus, their MPGs are the same as sedans that they’re allegedly replacing.
A new resident is supposed to get a new license when they move into the state (any state): “The officer was presumably referring to Alvelo’s place of residence, which is Dallas, Texas.” What we don’t know is how long Alvelo had been living in Dallas.
The car’s display/dashboard”Guessometer” already shows SOC and miles left available. You don’t need anything integrated with anything else. And while tying charging stations to onboard navigation may be seen as a feature, there also (likely better) apps for that, as well.
In the USA, the freight railroads are very reluctant to share their tracks with scheduled Amtrak service. Adding buses to the mix is probably not even in the realm of possibility, especially given the stringent FRA crash requirements for structural integrity (which essentially prohibits light rail vehicles from…
$20K for a trailer queen that only gets out two or three days a year simply does not appeal to me . . . ND
That’s why engineers build redundancy into their designs. Here, one failure did NOT result in a catatastrophe, much like the crack in the Memphis bridge over the Mississippi River.
This would only be worth the asking price if the drivetrain had been switched out for one from a Mustang GT. As it stands, now, someone paid a premium, when they bought it, and expects to get a premium just for storing it.
So, no Gladiators? Will they do a Rubicon 392 in one of those?
