Wow, a lot of you really hate this thing...

Both are well past their “glory days,” that’s for sure.

Nope. I’d rather seek out a 2 door Pathfinder. Better looking, more durable engine, and probably a lot cheaper.

Plastic model car kits from the ‘70s and ‘80s, as well as RC models from that era.

Sounds like my dad now. He likes his fast sedans: he’s had a Taurus SHO, a couple of turbo Audis, a 7 series BMW when he lived in Germany, and now he’s on his second Hemi-powered Chrysler 300. He takes it easy in town, but out on the open road, look out...

I had a happy grandpa when I was young. I also had a grumpy grandpa. Grumpy Grandpa bought a brand-new Buick Skylark every time they changed the bodystyle. Happy Grandpa lived on a farm and had a bunch of old beaters, including a ‘60s Dodge Power Wagon, a government-surplus Plymouth Fury, and a Volvo 145 wagon. (I…

In the spring, someone needs to set up a time-lapse camera so we can watch it slowly settle back to earth as the snow melts. Any bets on whether it stays upright?

The way my eyes are getting, the worst feeling for me is being completely blinded for a couple of seconds by someone’s too-bright/badly-aimed headlights, especially on a dark rural road. I’m always afraid that a deer is going to pick that moment to jump out of the ditch, and I won’t even realize it until I hit it.

I did that on the way to my senior prom...

Every ad tells a story, and I think the story here is “My boyfriend works at Pep Boys and we just found out I’m pregnant.”

Wait... New York City?!?

It was “Re-nalt” until the ‘80s, I think, when George C Scott started doing ads for the Alliance, telling everyone to “get to know... Ren-oh.”

“What carmaker did you say you work for?”

It looks like a toy. And I don’t mean that in a good way. It looks like one of those cheap Chinese RC trucks for sale all over eBay. “Full assembled for exceitement of RC driving. Battery not include, with USB charger available separately.”

I don’t know what it will be, but you’ll be able to buy it from my estate sale and not before. I’ll go electric for daily use when it makes sense for me to do so, but I love engines, and I will always have at least one gasoline-powered vehicle to tinker with. And if gas is $50 a gallon and I can only drive it once a…

I want to be friends with the sort of person who would spend eleven grand on one of these.

Citroën SM

Nope. If it were dead-stock, then maybe. The spoiler, the tint, and the wrong-sized wheels make it look half-assed and junky.

Pretty soon we’re going to find out that there’s a “Big” or “13 Going On 30" scenario at play here, and Elon is actually in middle school, but somehow magically transformed into an adult... it would explain so much.

My money’s on GM, and the last production vehicle to have one will probably be a 1-ton truck or van. The C9 Corvette will go hybrid or full electric, but fleet truck drivers in remote areas (think oil fields or mining operations) are going to want big reliable low-stress cast-iron V8s for a long time yet.
