Those Accord 5-speeds were secret weapons, as far as gas mileage was concerned. The 5th gear was so low, you could cruise at 70mph and the RPMs would be nearing 2k. I drove the 350+ miles from LA to San Jose with my ‘86 Accord and arrived with 2/3 of a 12-gallon tank left.

I would buy that Ducati just to look at it.

People in the late 70s got excited about these sleds because of their appearance in “Smokey & The Bandit,” but the car used in the movie had it’s boat anchor W72 Pontiac 400 replaced with a crate stock car engine; thus the great speed and sound.

Get ready, car flippers.

If I can’t see you, you can’t see me.

Stick an S2000 motor and axle in there, then you got something!

Aren’t these the drives that proved to be fake? They were just 256gb mini-SD cards inside that had some kind of hacked bios that made it look like it had 2TB storage size?

Better to name yourself after something solid and eternal like “The Rock,” and not something that’s temporary or needs to be solved like “The Situation.”

Red Snow Cats always foretell danger...

Absolutely.

One day the Internet™ will be turned off and it will be fun to see all these social media celebrities scramble for jobs at The Waffle House.
