I only realised this after trying to DD an old MR2. So annoying when you grab coffee on the way in to work.

I have a V12 Jag. Mechanically, it’s pretty straightforward. Diagnosis can be daunting, because it’s usually an electrical problem, unless it has overheated or caught fire.

Give him a break, maybe he thought that the Direct Ungravitated Missile Bombardment Attack Satellite System was already public knowledge.

The Oldsmobile 350 Diesel. It was a half-assed attempt at making a diesel engine, done by modifying the design of the 350 gasoline engine. The engineers suggested using more head bolts than the gasoline version (among other things) and accounting vetoed it due to cost. As a result the head bolts aren’t up to the task…

Every Ford SUV of this era has the same crack in the hatch:

if only my buddy who has one would let me drive it. He’d give me the keys to his m3 before he lets me have a go in this thing.

Best way I could describe the feeling would be if Ford somehow put the interior space of a Honda Civic into the Crown Vic.

2 years in and I still smile every time I go into my garage. No matter how dirty or broken it may be at times, it makes me happy to remember I own it. That’s really all you can ask from a car.

I had a Taurus last week when I was on the road for work. Great car for long road cruising. I had never experienced the infamous Sync before, but I had my doubts.

Gorgeous MR2 Turbo

This might be sacrilege, but the F40 with its lights up looks kinda ridiculous.

People can shit on the Probe’s silly name and FWD all they want but DAMN if it wasn’t a pretty car. I’d honestly say the early-mid 90’s was one of the best times for car designs.

I read this as “Prius Feces...”

you know what’s more fun? one of these

Who cares? My biggest pet peeve about C&C is that people can’t leave pretension and expectations at home. You’ve got people too anal to let people drink coffee near their cars and you have people that can’t understand that someone loves their barely-modified Focus enough that they might want to talk about it with…

If all NES games were designed well so that you could tell what would or would not kill you and what was or was not a platform that you could stand on, then the Angry Video Game Nerd wouldn’t have been as angry. The mark of good game design back in the day was to be able to tell what was what and not have their player…

Ford vans are selling because the Transit Connect is hilariously fun (and capable). I test drove the Connect short wheelbase panel van (only one they had) for a car review and laughed the whole way home.. it made turbo noises! And it handled great! And it’s entirely made of doors!

Hard Drivin’. Best arcade Racing Game ever. It’s got jumps, loop-a dee loops, high banked corners, and the best part, a CLUTCH! Need to start the car? Use the clutch. Need to shift? Use the clutch. Don’t use the clutch? Car stays kaput. I loved this game as a kid, and would love to play it again.

I do actually like the SHO. It’s a venerable muscle sedan, and being on the flawed Ford D3 platform actually gives it some character and added desirability, IMO.

And that green is gorgeous. I’d never be able to sell it, but I’d have mine in that color, anyway.

Haha! I have both in my driveway! 730 hp of AWD EcoBoost fury.
