Oh... Oh my goodness I never knew this. This should be the next major taillight issue focus. ITAS really needs to be informed about this. 

Hey, I sold it to her, and I talked with her this morning - I just want to say, I legit had no idea. This was my grocery getter and city escape vehicle, and the steering was vague as hell but I chalked that up to GMT2500 handling, or lack thereof. I never wrenched on this except an alternator, because I honestly had…

1986 - Holden Commodore SS, “Blue Meanie”

Yes, we need Fred to cobberate.

I completely missed that 2015 Mystery Machine post, thank you for providing me with the link to this American literary treasure!

This is exactly the sort of hard hitting investigative journalism that keeps me coming back. The Pulitzers are obviously rigged.

When I tell you I am deeply conflicted, I’m talking “Alabama hot cousin at the family reunion” levels of conflicted here. I know I’m not supposed to have these urges, but with that face and that body... I know it’s wrong, but it feels right.

EDIT: Sorry, didn’t see the second half of your sentence.

I work as an automotive engineer. You just hit the nail on the head.

I’m really excited to get mine! I have a red two door on order! This is pretty cool to see some of the behind the scenes stuff!

The ONLY time I can remember people dragging a person from their vehicle and attacking them was the LA Riots in 1992.

I’m from Australia and haven’t heard about innocent motorists being pulled out of cars and killed

I helped send a rich POS to five years in prison for deliberately hitting two cyclists he didn’t like using his road for exercise.

The spocom movement in Japan was (is?) pretty funny. They build their cars “US JDM” style. 

Yep - came here to mention the Ram Van racing series in Japan!

Ah the love child of a lunar lander and an ATM machine...

Who cares? I drive a yellow Corvette that would have all the Jalops making white New Balance jokes (my New Balances are black and red trail runners, for the record, and I don’t wear them while driving the car because knobby trail runners are godawful for driving stick). The car makes me deliriously happy though so the…

Is it bad that I still think those 80s grids are fucking rad?

Manuals can make boring cars fun.

My diesel manual Chrysler Voyager? If that had a four-speed auto, I wouldn’t touch it with a 20-foot pole. With the five-speed? It’s epic!
