VW Touareg V10 Diesel. 553 lb-ft of torque in an SUV with AC.
I put coilovers on my car as a daily driver.
If you had $2M dollars, where would you put it safely? A bank? Bitcoin? Grandma’s mattress?
Just ask Adam Conover (“Adam Ruins Everything”) about what happens when small entities are swallowed up by huge entities.
The 550i went for around $59k in 2007. This car is around 8% of that value. The BMW Gods will get their money from you, some how.
Midnight Mass was neither haunting, deranged, or impressively poignant. I would use words like boring, fruitless and dragging. The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor were Twilight Zone episodes dragged out to 9 hours.
The difference between buying a car online and buying one in person is negligible. Unless you are a bodywork expert, a professional inspector, or someone like Wayne Carini, shopping for cars in person can be misleading. Online, you don’t have the pressure of salespeople breathing down your neck, the classic up-sell,…
Doubtful they brought back Dana the camp counselor (voice by Dana Carvey.) I always felt they could have explored that character a little more.

That Audi 90CS would be great if it had the 5-cylinder ICE, that really purred. The V6 is fine, but the 2.3 L 20-valve I5 was a screamer.
People love these mobile sewing machines for the same reasons they love VW Bugs; there’s only about 200 parts all together, you can fix them with duct tape and the change in the ash tray, they are great on gas and will never go out of style. The fact that they’re values have soared is testament to their appeal.
First, that Catalina is the coolest car ever. Even with the white walls.
I remember when a friend of my mom bought a new 190E and took us on a ride around San Diego, the car blew 2 fuses related to lighting, one for blinkers and one for the dash. It would seem that these cars had an inherent electrical issue stemming from bad grounds. The fact that these cars were all imported from either…
Whenever I dream about traveling the country in a car-pulled mobile home, I remember this scene from “The Long, Long Trailer:”
People saying new Subarus are ugly don’t realize that Subarus have always been ugly. That’s kind of their appeal; you don’t notice how ugly they are from inside the car.
