Flying cars aren't going to happen until AFTER autonomous cars. Here's why: people are terrible drivers and are going to be even worse flyers. All those FAA hurtles and all those other hurtles only really matter when people are behind the wheel. So...robots aka autonomous flying cars.

But first we have to be

Does it Miata?

Now playing

I saw a documentary where a guy got another guy's address from the phone book and tracked him down. Scary stuff! here's a clip:

Likely has the 3.slow in it, which is the worst motor Toyota ever made. But still, nice price!

I Am An Idiot.

T.A.I.A.M. (it's an anagram! mind blown.)

I'm ashamed to say that I currently do not DD an old car.

For 5 years or so I mostly drove my 93 Miata:,

My mom has a PT Cruiser. Come visit.

Like this guy?

Digital gauges offer a flexibility that analog gauges couldn't even hope to match. Some cars use a combination of both, and some have gone full LCD, but either way, digital displays have found a permanent home in the gauge cluster.

I don't understand the desire for a luxury car that is not well made. Why would you spend so much time an effort on such junk? I do understand the desire when it comes to a sports car - it goes fast, handles well and you can overlook the poor build quality because you are having fun on a track or whatever. Also

That thing is pretty mean looking. I like!

The Wrangler is great, but it's in a class of one and that needs to change. The world is ready for something like a modern Bronco or Scout, and it looks like GMC might answer our prayers.

Basically, we need a modern take on the Honda CR-X. The CR-X was a car that could be all things to so many people: cheap to buy and own, practical, and still a hoot to drive. There are modern cars that have some of those qualities, but none wrap up all three as well as the CR-X

But then something happened to change my point of view. Namely, my Range Rover became reliable. That's right, folks: for the last five months, I haven't had a single problem. One hundred and seventy-eight days without an issue. Almost half a year without so much as a single unwelcome noise coming from this thing. It

They didn't follow your request for "removable top and doors", which was kind of the key point to battling the Wrangler.

By all accounts it holds it's own offroad pretty damn well, so they got that part right.

If only somebody had an iconic vehicle that was known, respected and loved worldwide which could fill a gap in their lineup and create a reliable and capable competitor. Hmmm.

Good stuff from Ford these days, huh?

I love the M45's!
