Our cemeteries do recycle their (unwanted) gravestones. Usually they are crushed into small pebbles but sometimes not. This large chunk is from the city that I live in.

Even though the tool slightly sounds like an impact tool, it still works differently. Large nuts used for of heavy duty wheels are tightened using fairly similar devices. They usually use compressed air instead of batteries. They need a lever to lean against something because the tightening is not based on impacts.…

I think all Citroëns with hydropneumatic suspension would be better cars with an EV powertrain. None of these had super cool engines from the factory and their main goal was to be very smooth riding cars. I’m not a big fan of V6 engines so I didn’t even count SM’s engine as a “super cool one”. Maybe many would like to…

I object as I really like these early 356s.

The title is quite bad. It doesn’t have a regular sized windshield but it does have a really low one.

Maybe it could be a contender for some obscure carburetor powered FWD class in Bonneville salt flats?

The fermented fish is not very common here. I have luckily never even have had to smell it. In Sweden and Norway it’s a somewhat common treat. 

In Finland you would need to have a (heavy duty) truck driver’s license to drive with a 9000 pound vehicle. There would also be a mandatory 80 km/h speed limiter installed in the vehicle. The limit for these is 3500 kg total mass.

If the point was to win races it was very difficult. Though I’m might have sucked as a gamer at this point too.

That was a very difficult game. Maybe it would today feel a little easier. It was the first 3d game that I played that allowed you to paint your own car. I’m pretty sure that my racing liveries would look very crappy if I would see them again...

I think they are inspired by the Japanese style of using lace covers in the fancy car seats. But I have no idea why an US market pickup should have these.

I think it’s great that we disagree about the prettiness of the cars. Otherwise all of us would want to get the same exact car but only 0.01% of us could afford it.

I did like LS Lexus when it was introduced. It was a good looking rival for M-B and BMW. But every update has made it look uglier. The dude who designed the XF20 facelift should have been fired. The designer for the XF30 was likely a blind person.

I have driven with a couple of Volvos and one M-B with lane assistant functions. On some roads the car bounces between the lanes like a drunk driver. During some situations the car decides to swerve towards a bus stop and then quit steering when the car is pointing towards a ditch.

Even though you would drive carefully on beautiful sunny days there are still dangers lurking. Usually the danger comes in the form of the other drivers but sometimes it can be more sneaky. This unlucky and very valuable 2000GT was flattened by a large falling tree while it was being driven in 2014. The driver…

I’m kinda expecting that the “one” would Mercedes or Red Bull. Ferrari seems to be way too unlucky to think up some useful (and legal) trick. But there’s now a “once in a decade change” for the low tier teams to climb to the top for a while.

The first race should be pretty entertaining. At least the early parts of it.

What are we expected to do with a muscle car? If we want look cool, make a lot of noise and make fast quarter mile times a ‘70-71 Hemi Challenger (or something similar) would be the best choice. If we want to commute to work daily the previous best choice becomes one of the worst. Those things are ridiculously…

A couple of weeks ago we had an article on Jalopnik about C4 Corvette’s amazing reversing lights that were aided by the rear sidemarkers featuring side illumination. It seems that Quicksilver shares the same sidemarker lights with the Corvette. I guess they also function similarly.

I’m fine with either of the grille styles but there’s another design feature that the “new Z” inherited from the predecessor. It’s the roof line. Why is the highest point of the car just behind the windshield? The highest point of the car should be where the driver’s head is (I’ll ignore the long roofs at this point).…
