Wish it was 4wd, hope at the least it has a limited slip rear end. Reality is, of course, that if it was 4wd, price would go up precipitously.

Was the victim or suspect actually a direct employee of GM? The story reads like they were employees of a contractor doing custodial work at the plant. If that is indeed the case, the use of a the lead photo with the jacket featuring the UAW and GM logo is very misleading and should be corrected.

I plan to retire to Panama in about 6 years. A 2-3 year old Jimny will be my DD there, already have that planned out. They are remarkable do-everything little off-roaders.

My 2008 Mini Cooper had gone through all kinds of electrical issues, and I wound up replacing one of the many electronic modules. Had to send it off to a company that cloned it and sent me a replacement. So, $400 later, it should have been able to plug and play. The module was located in the driver’s floor well, so I…

My inlaws (couple in their 70s) sold their 1985 Toyota pickup when the transmission let go. This was early last year just before prices for used cars went nuts. They wanted something newish to replace it, so they started looking for a 1-2 year old truck. If the Maverick had been available, they should have considered…

Disagree. CFA was crazy popular before any political controversy became front page news. There is very little evidence to show that the people NOT eating at CFA due to politics, or people doing the opposite, have had a major impact on CFA profitability. There is lots of evidence that the CFA business model of having …

Free gas. Small station in southwest VA was closing down for good, and they just turned on all the pumps and let folks fill up. I have no idea if the owners were okay with that, but the clerk that was on duty just DNGAF, and so free gas for everybody. Unfortunately for me, I was riding by on my motorcycle when I saw…

As someone who has purchased a car from a Jim Ellis dealership, I think they need to STFU when it comes to stating that dealerships “protect” the consumer.

Petroleum companies are sitting on thousands of permits to explore and drill. Opening up more oil exploration solves nothing. It’s advantageous financially for companies to NOT invest in exploration and drilling, as long as they can jack up prices just doing what they are doing. Oil companies profits rose to $174…

Brakes.  Not breaks.  Good grief.

Brakes.  Not breaks.  Good grief.

Mine was a 2000, but had a binder of receipts including a VERY expensive repair. Previous owner had the tensioners fail, and paid over $7K at a DEALER for new heads, new chains, tensioners. etc. It was an impressive receipt.  :)

True. I referred to mine as a reverse Tardis. How could a car so big on the outside seem so small inside? Even with that, the leather, the wood, that massive hood out in front of you with the Leaper leading the way? Damn, I had a smile every single time I drove it.

The only winner in this timeline is “Big Flag”.

Good for those drivers. Absolutely something all the drivers should commit to. F1 needs to cancel, and do so because it is the right thing to do, not because they may be forced to because of economic sanctions. F1 seems to rarely do the right thing until too late, so we will see.

It would be great to see the new regs leading to more balanced competition across teams. I am a Hamilton fan, but I would love to see multiple teams have legitimate shots at podiums each race, rather than seeing all RB and Mercedes drivers race after race. McLaren, Ferrari, Alpine, and Alfa should all have the…

I’m planning to retire to Panama. Don’t f*** that up for me!  I do not want to be part of Texas! :)

There are parts of Costa Rica, parts of Panama, and Parts of Mexico where the number of ex-pat US residents outnumber the locals, or are at least close to doing so. Should those areas just be able to decide that they are actually part of the US?
