I always go to the local GTX theater because I love the huge screen. In our area, it’s $11, so not too bad if you want the movie theater experience.

The class action suit against Stellantis over the revival of the Durango Hellcat for 2023 just proves that history DOES repeat itself.

I live a bit North of Tampa, FL and it seems that there are more Jeeps on the road than anything else, both the Grand Cherokees and Wranglers. (Not to mention the various Jeep models that are just re-bodied Fiats.) I loved my Grand Cherokee, but got tired of seeing so many of them on the road.

So recently I found The Closer/Major Crimes on HBO. For various reasons, I had missed the last couple of seasons of Major Crimes, and I had been happily watching the entire series because, well, it’s so damn good. Anyway, I got to the second episode of the final season, and then the next night I went to continue, and…

When I went to Oakland, CA, a few months ago, I decided to look at Turo for a rental car and found a Fiat 500 Abarth Turbo that just tickled my brain. I rented it for two weeks and it was a blast to drive, not at all what I am used to. I gotta say that the Fiat on here is tempting. I’m sure I could upgrade the engine,…

1963 Buick LeSabre. My Dad was quite a motorhead, and he just loved this car. It had an upgraded rear suspension which would allow it to do things that a Buick had no right to do. After I got my license, our family took a road trip from Baltimore to Washington State. When we got to Montana (Speed Limit: Reasonable and…

I think I’d rather have a Kei Truck. At least you can get them licensed and take them on the road.

There are times when I need a Pick Up truck. Nothing heavy, a few bags of mulch or the occasional trip to the dump. I had a really nice early 90's S10, restored and given to me by my father, but it was still more than I needed.

My personal favorite is when you buy a T Shirt or something relatively cheap online and the check out wants to know if you want to tip the person who, I guess, is packaging the item and sending it. Seriously? I assume those people are getting a salary for performing that job.

Already got mine, although more than 25 years old (in Florida they need to be 30 years old to qualify for “Antique” tags).

You would be amazed at how much room there is for the driver in one of these things. I bought a Subaru Sambar so that I would have some kind of PU truck but not one of those big gas guzzlers. It has incredible headroom and is plenty comfortable.

I’d love to meet this guy. I could show him my driveway, which contains a Durango Hellcat, a Jaguar XK8 and a Subaru Sambar Classic (Kei Truck). I am the only driver living here. I wonder if his head would explode.

I came here to say this. When I brought my Sanbar home, I activated the GPS speedo on my iPhone and it exceeded 70 MPH. I would not want to do this for extended periods of time, for sure, but they can get out of their own way. I tend to drive mine like I drove my MGB, which was no speed demon either, but I can keep up…

I firmly believe the big problem with the RX8 was all of the damn automatic transmissions people insisted on having. Earlier RX7 factory manuals stated that the cars needed to be revved to the redline on a regular basis. This caused the seals to seal better (centrifugal force = you know, physics?). This is fine with…

Does everyone realize that when you “share” a password with someone else, you are in effect stealing from the company involved? I truly don’t get that this has become such a big deal. By signing up with Netflix, I am in effect signing a contract with them. Why is is OK to spread that information with every Tom, Dick…

I had a 280ZX that would have trouble like this when it rained. The problem was the plug WIRES, which were so old that they absorbed water from the rain. I would pull over under a bridge, let the engine heat dry the wires, and continue until it did it again. Rather than buy new wires, I got some spray plastic and…

Like most restaurants, the secret to success is the store manager. My Father and I enjoyed many a fine meal at their location in Towson, MD. over several years, simply because the manager was always ready to make our stay pleasurable. We were generally greeted by name, engaged in a brief conversation, and ready to…

Heard Blondie is doing a tour. I would travel to the end of the world to be in the same room as Debbie. And then there is ZZTop/Lynard Skymark. (Until they start that damn “Freebird” and I walk out of the venue.

So I recently purchased a Durango Hellcat. The crap the deal put me through, along with the lowball trade (they knew they had me) had given me a new distaste for these mega dealerships.
