Had one, bought it for $900 with 240k miles on it. My friend and I used to frequent this junkyard. When we saw a newly junked 240, we went to pick out the usual useful parts, like relays and shit like that. To our surprise, it was decked out with full IPD suspension, bushings, sway bars, adjustable cam gear, and…

NP for a neat hobby car. Are you going to take the family on cross country road trips with it? No. But are you going to enjoy the occasional Saturday morning in the garage doing some relatively simple -- and satisfying wrenching? Sure. And you’re going to meet some down to earth people when out and about, too. This…

This one is a little more technical, but a lot of people misspell and mispronounce “giubo,” which for cars is the term for the flexible disc between the transmission flange and the driveshaft. The name is a portmanteau of the Italian words “giunto” (joint) and “Boschi” (the surname of the Italian who invented it), As…

This was sold in Australia, including a manual version

Steve-O has been a random inspiration for me to keep maintaining my drug recovery (albeit a few relapses). I figured if that guy can do it so can I.

Can we talk about how Steve-O is 47 years old and looks amazing considering everything he’s been through?

Ditto various gauges in various Volvos over the years. They all had the tach wire, and in the 740s you could swap out blanks in the cluster for the volt and boost gauges that the turbos got on non-turbos and they would just work. Boost would only show vacuum, of course.

Bonus: double the fuel...FOR FREE!

I think that you’re looking at this wrong. This means that you can also replace an Escape instrument panel with a Maverick one. 

Nope. 

I’m a gun owner, and I use it for target shooting and I sometimes take it into the mountains for large animal protection if I’m alone (I also carry bear spray as a first line of defense). I’m also a very even keeled person, not prone to emotional outbursts. But even I know that carrying a weapon daily only makes this…

Why don’t y’all just do a feature called “Ask a Trucker”? I’m sure I’m not the only one on here who drives commercial truck for a living; I’m also a driver trainer. 

... and this is why the “tough on crime” mandatory minimum sentences (which always seem to end up equalling “life in prison”, somehow) are simply bad public policy.

Mandatory minimum laws are obscene in all instances.

Even when making a 3D render they couldn’t resist the tackiness of putting fake marble vinyl on everything.

You use marble for large expanses because the streaks break up the visual scale, while being close enough in colour and contrast that it isn’t jarring. Marble is associated with being expensive because you build…

I dunno, I read a lot of articles regarding that when it came out and it came down to (within Renault) either we build it and it’s automatic, or we don’t build it (i.e. they have no manual that would fit the packaging and the power). I’m sure glad they chose the former.

SPOILERS: In the post-credits scene, they flash-forward to the kid as an adult in a creepy mask with a siren blaring in the background, and you realise the whole thing has been a prequel to the Purge movies.
