I can't recall the last time I saw one of these roll across a Mecum auction block.

All of that makes sense. I would say that by 1996 the fad had faded away. I remember a guy in my dorm hall with a tricked out mini truck. He had a solid side fiberglass cap on the back and a pass though, instead of the window. In his carpeted bed resided banks of large sub-woofers.

As someone who has a daily driver with a MT, I am truly excited about moving to an automatic car with paddle shift.

Would the cost be lower if the software were first designed to support an MT, and then adapted to an AT?

In 1993 I enjoyed the two or three custom mini trucks in our high school parking lot. One in particular was a '91 ranger that could get high centered on a textbook. It was red, and low. The paint and body work were of a higher caliber than any high school kid should have, but I guess when your dad is the local Ford…

I found out long ago. It's a long way down the holiday road.

The grid in most cases can handle the additional load. Most home chargers will be optimized to use off-peak rates at times where demand is generally lower.

Okay, so 12lbs of CO2 for electric and 14 for gallon of gasoline still looks to be a win for electric in so many ways. I'm not sure how you don't see electric as a smart and cleaner alternative based on your own estimations. Also, from my knowledge most of our electricity is generated from domestic sources, i.e. coal,…

You're not able to see the forest through the trees.

Are your CO2 numbers based on coal power?

If I had some influence on the future of Lincoln, I would advise a different path than the course they're on with the brand.

Ha, yes I know. It wasn't a reference to any type of rear end collision induced explosions. My parents bought a Vega shortly after they got married. Kept the car for 12 or 13 years. While others complained of rust, that wasn't an issue for the one we had. Problems we encountered were a thin paint job and an engine…

Heavily stanced.

Chevrolet Vega. Boom, goes the dynamite.

These cars generally corner as well as a dump truck on marbles. I'm thinking lots of body roll, diving and lunging requires heavy bolsters.

Seat bolsters are cheaper than building a good chassis or suspension. Sucks for the rear passengers.

But at the end of the day it is still a Dodge Spirit, a car that is the epitome of what was wrong in Detroit at the time.

I've always known the traffic around Atlanta was crazy, but the OG (Original Georgia) takes crazy traffic to a whole new level.

This completely baffles me. This is NP every day of the week and twice on Sunday. I am not in the market for someone's former project, but this has a market. I would sell this on a used car lot on the edge of LA or somewhere in NJ with a $6k ask and make a few Benjamins.

In it's day it filled a niche. Today an M or AMG do a much better job both in a straight line and in corners.
