I’m not sure that “people who buy ten dollar multi-tools” and “people who own a good set of files” are overlapping circles on the venn diagram of life.

Sometimes you have to make sacrafices, I know I have-being a single mom and all. Family first. My daughter has never had any problems with hers. Put some aside every week-it adds up fast :) My fun car had to wait until my kids were out of college. I bought my 71 and it looks nothing like it used too. There were years…

If you live in the lower 48 you have a lot of area to pick from, good luck-never give up and never surrender.

Yup. Mazda 3. It has something for everyone.

Lancia Stratos? Well, we’ll line up everyone who doesn’t like it on a rally stage and punt them all to hell.

I would say Miata but it’s still very polarizing. I’d have to say a Ferrari F355. Regular people see the badge and instantly love it. Women see a convertible and love it. Car guys know it’s one of the most enjoyable cars to drive of all time and they love it. And of course kids see a red sports car and shit themselves…

....You were saying?

Heck I was wonder if there was a universal car(s) that Jalopnik could agree on. I think Rick is on to something with classic sports cars. I mean, who wouldn’t love a 300SL Gullwing?

Your answer is bad, and you should feel bad. It was, and shall always be “Slug Bug.”

The first that comes to mind is a classic Mini. Something like this one:

I’ve seen places say there were two blasts, a 3t equivalent and a 21t equivalent.

Should’ve been 110 Yokos.

What the media has spun out of this is that the blast caused a seismic reading of 2 point something. That energy corresponds to 21 tons of TNT. They’ve run with that number. However, that only accounts for the energy deposited in the ground. For a seismic reading corresponding to 21 tons of TNT, you need a lot more…

There was a cover band convention nearby. Casualties include 110 Johns, 96 Pauls, 103 Georges, and 82 Ringos.

Ran when parked.

I’m currently unmarried, no kids, and own 4 cars. Totally not justified in any way, but I love it. I’ve got two Subaru SVX’s, and orange 1987 300zx sitting in my garage (my fourth 300zx), and my newest fun car, a decommissioned 1994 Ford E350 Ambulance:

I think the most unappreciated feature (or really, mandate) is the seat belt chime. Some people really do forget to put on their seat belts, and need the reminder. And some automakers (BMW Group, Ford, Porsche, Hyundai/Kia, Subaru, etc...) have pleasant chimes.

The lane changing halfway turn signal position. On older cars the blinkers would only come on when the stalk was fully engaged, and then you’d have to disengage when you changed lanes because you haven’t moved the wheel far enough to activate the auto disconnect. Come to think of it, the auto-off blinker thing is…

A spare tire of any kind. My car has one, but I worry it may be the last car I can buy that does.

Looks a lot like particle board from this picture, granted I’m sure its real nice up close.
