Smaller group. More like the top 0.1% or 0.2%. From Investopedia.com:

I whole-heartedly disagree about speed limits.  When my family moved to our current city, it took 2 hours + to drive to Raleigh NC.  We now have a 70 mph speed limit highway where traffic regularly moves at 79 mph.  You can now get to Raleigh in just over an hour.  Charlotte used to take 5 hours, now you can do it in…

Define “better”

55 MPH is more than a “minor inconvenience”. Have you ever driven (or been a passenger) crossing Kansas at 55 MPH? Christ it felt like I could get out and walk faster than that.

Import age rules for private citizens are dumb. Let people bring in whatever deathtrap they want so long it won’t kill anyone else and doesn’t roll coal. An S4 wagon isn’t going to hurt anyone.

My BFF never had a car until he retired and moved a few doors down from me in FL. He was apoplectic when his car wouldn’t start one day.

You would be surprised how much of what’s “fun” in an enthusiast car is actually code for uncomfortable or complicated.

Everytime I hear this I pull up the 59 Bel Air vs the 09 Malibu front quarter crash test on Youtube.  Shuts them up with the quickness.

Honestly, most of the dumbest stuff I’ve ever heard about cars comes from enthusiasts and is best summed up as “there’s only one way to enjoy cars, and that’s my way.”

I still hear people complain about how cars used to be safer because they used more steel. A lot less often than I heard that in 90s, but it still leaves me dumbfounded every so often. They’re not even all boomers, either. 

Anyone here remember Saturn owners? Not the SC2 guys, but the LW and SL owners. They had some serious doozies of beliefs when it came to cars.

Nissan Silvia Spec R. You can rarely, if ever, find an unmolested and low mileage 240SX in the U.S. so might as well go for the best version from elsewhere.

One more year and....

Anything from TVR:

The Tuscan speed 6. Even though TVR claims they started production in 1999, they started delivering them to customers in 2020 so these will only really become available for import this year.

I mean technically you can start importing them now because they were made in 1999, but there’s probably a great spec that was made in 2000 that I’d want.

We really ought to have some sort of required financial literacy education in this country...

This whole DOGE and pony show

2015 Trump: “Excessive CEO pay is a disgrace and a joke.”

Hey, remember how Tesla got Department of Energy loans back in the day to support their early manufacturing!?
