You said “currently-sold,” not “currently-built,” so...

We had peacocks roaming around my old neighborhood in Portland. I think someone raised them as pets but just let them run free. They used to perch on the peak of our roof and taunt our dogs.

“I gotta tell ya... I thought it handled great.”

Nissan Xterra. Preferably yellow, so you can find it in the snow.

Neutral: I feel like I need to start writing again. I haven’t written anything longer than a Facebook post or a comment on here in ages. I even have a topic: the importance of hobbies in keeping your sanity and morale during times of trouble. I just haven’t decided whether it wants to be a new blog, or the start of a…

If one were shopping for a Jag, and one found this alongside the plebian six cylinder models, one would have to move it to the front of the queue. And one appreciates the subtlety of the XJ40 design over the dreadful trying-too-hard “retro” styling of the later models. And it still has the proper forward-opening…

You press the nozzle on the can much more forcefully, for one...

Thanks for writing this. I agree wholeheartedly. I own three cars, all manuals, and as far as I can tell, they’re not ever going to suddenly morph into automatics if “the industry” kills off the manual transmission. I can still buy replacement clutches for all three should the need arise. So who cares what anyone else…

...I mean, “Warrant Squad” even sounds like the jack-booted thugs from some dystopic sci-fi novel...

When I lived in Minnesota we referred to that as “Iowa Chrome.”

We have four cars. They’re 17, 25, 31, and 49 years old. Does that mean we’re above average?

You mean:

That ain’t Lake Minnetonka.

I absolutely needed this today! Thank you!

I really really want one of these. But I can wait 5 years until they’re $2500 and “need a little work.”

I finally got my MGB GT to start on Saturday after 9 months of work on the wiring - complete front-to-back redesign of the electrical system, based on a Painless wiring harness for GM cars. It was so good to hear that B-series rumble again. Lots of more testing and work to do before it’s ready for the open road, but…

Neutral: Hell yes! A little cheap-and-cheerful electric runabout would do nicely. We need the electric equivalent of the Model T or the Beetle, the simple honest little elctric car for the masses to take the exotic-ness out of electric cars, and it looks like this could be it.

The only trouble was that you could order any combination you wanted. They didn’t care if it clashed; if that’s what the build ticket says, that’s what they do. A friend of mine in high school had an old Oldsmobuick of some sort that was pea-green with the burgundy interior. From the factory. It looked like a giant…

I always wanted one of those...

Can’t unsee.
