But being a vintage life-size Lego truck is what makes it so fabulous.

Isn’t it illegal to drive a vehicle that could be mistaken for an official vehicle, with the sirens and light bars and FIRE and all? Or is that not an issue when dealing with antique imports?

Not an old car, but noteworthy one - 2007 Dodge Magnum SRT. As a musclecar fan I was giddy to see what it was like driving a modern incarnation of a ton-o-fun dragwagon.

Hell, after all the stories of cars where a Jiffy Lube tech sawed a hole in the underbody aero panels, I don’t trust that pony to do even one trick.

Quoth Ron White:

As a veteran of the Star Wars flight sims, I’ve put a lot of thought into TIE design and certainly didn’t reread your previous article about it that you linked in this one.

Where is R2's body in that thing anyway?

If the new X-Wings are an abomination, it’s because of that swiveling underbelly laser. Why even bother using fixed-angle weaponry if you have that?

Spitballing: The U-Wing’s long spars are full of maneuvering jets, acting like the thrusters-on-pods from Torchy’s TIE redesign.

“Those guys love naming their spaceships after how they sort of resemble letters in a language that they’re not supposed to even know about, which is weird, right?”

Dude, full synthetic oil can easily last 50k miles without an issue, changing your oil more often than that is just wasting the stuff.

“...the company mortgaged off all of its production equipment, production facilities, and even real estate.”

4th Gear: The big money guys who claim to be experts are upset that building cars doesn’t translate into wildly fluctuating valuations the way tech stocks do. So now we can add Capitalism to the list of things Facebook ruined for everyone.

I wasn’t old enough to drive when the Avalanche debuted, and even then I knew it was machismo idiocy on wheels. I figured, if a six thousand pound truck that can’t actually fit anything in its bed counts as a commuter car to people, then it was only a matter of time before people were driving semi-tractors for fun.

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Kinjaverse, people are up in arms over J.K. Rowling using Native American legends for dumb referential tie-ins.

It looks like a cross between an electric shaver and a bowling shoe.

This is everything that a hybrid-electric car should be:

Nissan Versa. The manual option is the cheapest new car in America, so you have a nice warranty for inevitable “trouble”.

Neutral: Not gonna lie, the Chevy Sonic is a nifty little machine.

Convergent evolution in action.
