    You have obviously never driven one of these. The short wheelbase, as well as the “riding over the wheels” situation makes for an extremely uncomfortable ride. Additionally, the position of the driver is very unsafe in the event of a crash, with basically just a bit of sheet metal protecting them. 

    So now I guess we know where Ford go the idea to name their new electric SUV “Mustang”. I remember the Mitsubishi Eclipse fondly. How the name got on an SUV is mystifying.

    I live in the Tampa Bay area. I didn’t know that the Bucs were in it until the day after the game. Also didn’t know they played in Tampa.

    This. Can’t believe people are actually sending her money when there are so many other more important things to worry about.

    Every time I use my Smartphone or fire up my computer, I remember that yesterday’s Science Fiction is today’s Science.

    It was available as a Hulu add on.

    In confess. I was one of those who took the HBO MAX free trial just so I could watch WW 84. After THAT disappointment, I did check out some of the other offerings, but then canceled before the free trial was up.

    Well, Falcon and Winter Soldier IS the next show coming. Would it be unlikely that there is some kind of tie-in? 

    Over the years I have owned five Mazda based cars (I count the 1990 Ford Probe as one). I have always been impressed with their build quality and reliability (yes, even the four rotaries that I have owned).

    Many years ago, Car and Driver presented an article about the then newest Vette. They sent their writer to Kentucky to do the road test with one of the development engineers. That engineer stated that it was his feeling that a “hard” break in was better for an engine than a “soft” one, as he proceeded to redline the

    What boggles my mind is who the hell puts that much money into building a four cylinder Caravan/Voyager? That’s quite an extensive rebuild, and I could maybe see it for a smaller car, but a van? Seriously?

    Here’s the thing. Who the hell is gonna pay for this? Are they gonna use highway tax funds, when electric cars do NOT contribute via fuel taxes to the fund?

    Um, no. Sorry.

    Um, no. Sorry.

    So true. As a former long haul trucker, I can appreciate how he felt at the end of the day. Of course, he did make many stops to get the “kinks” out.

    In fact, I watched the entire video and enjoyed the hell out of it. The man admitted very early that he was pretty much unprepared for this and really didn’t know what he was getting himself into. Probably why it was so good, as opposed the scripted stuff we see on certain TV shows with the initials TG or GT.

    I’ll say this, the man has balls. I have been on those roads through the dessert, and they can really F you up if you are not prepared for them, which he was not. That he got so far is, frankly, amazing!

    Really happy to see the “NP” trend on this one. Anyone who has not driven a Rotary engine car should not even consider voting in this particular survey, because they know not of what they speak.

    Stuff like this was fairly common back in the day. Working at a Ford dealership, we knew that we had to be careful when we got cars from the New Jersey plant.

    Two thumbs down on the RX8. It’s an automatic. I am convinced that the primary cause for all of the engine failures on the RX8 were because of the many automatics sold. The Owner’s Manual for my RX7 tells me to red line the engine on a fairly regular basis to help the apex seals stay in place. Who red lines a car with
