That’s the article I want to read. David Tracy in a 1941 Willys on RTE66. Make this happen!

Hoarding is an odd compulsion. Sad that it came to this. 

I haven’t seen anyone mention the fact that “here is a brand new Dodge. This Dodge was designed for racing. This Dodge built for racing catches on fire when preparing to race.” Root cause should matter. 

Just wait until they release the Challenger SRT Namaste Edition!

Looks are subjective so I don’t have a super-boiling hot take, but this looks slightly less ugly than a few modern trucks, but is in no way attractive. I think our standards for good design have fallen precipitously due to the garish, asymmetrical, overwrought and geometrically nonsensical trucks being churned out…

My wife and I moved out of Chicago to a more rural suburb last year and I really hoped to get a few acres with some outbuildings so I could start my old crap collection but that didn’t exactly work out how I planned because: Careers. 

I’d love to rummage around and imagine the possibilities of getting those things operational. The endless possibilities, the endless work, the endless spending. The quintessential automotive experience. 

I live in Chicago and to make the trip ultra-nostalgic, I think I’ll take my ‘66 Charger, which has no AC and a 3 speed trans. It gets 8 MPG. Assuming I’ll turn around and go home before I get to Missouri. Actually, I’ll get towed home before I get out of Cook county...........So nostalgic.

True. If I had a large car collection, all of them would need to be presentable and in running order (not easy with anything over 20, less 60, years old) but I thought this was just my personal hang-up while others could blissfully enjoy the rotting corpses of once-great (average) vehicles.

You rode in swiftly and you rode in strong. 

I learned something here today: Unusual!

Your logic is rational; hoarding is compulsive. Although I agree with you.

Whenever I watch American Pickers or see these huge car collections, I get really confused by the economics. Most of these people are pretty salt-of-the-earth, yet, somehow, they have money to just buy crap and crap and more crap and tonsacrap and a bunchacrap, then never sell it. While most of us are like “I’ll have…

Was Mitsubishi in a cross-promotional deal with the release of the movie Dark Crystal?

Also: Why are Audis such shit? 

David Tracy FTW: And I can’t believe I’m writing that. I figured he’d come back with some Jeep think like the Grand Cherokee SRT Hell Demon or whatever it is. Now that I think of it, that’s not a bad choice.

It’s the only way to offset the 50 lb, 19" “sport” wheel and tire package.

Somewhere in the filmmakers guild, there must be a guideline with a chapter on car chases, and one verse speaks to the loss of a hubcap and the illusion of speed.

CP on Fierrari, but possible NP on the Chrysler:

I omitted the key ingredient!
