It looks like Toyota retaliated a couple years later, and blocked Lincoln from naming their new sedan the LS6 and LS8 on the grounds it was too close to the LS400/430 (although abided by just the Lincoln LS). I mean, I assume the same happened with the Saturn L-Series (early brochures show they echo the naming scheme…

Prior to my current place, I lived in a condo building for 7 years. For the longest time, the rule against keeping more than one vehicle in your parking spot went unenforced (as did plenty of other rules), so I had my motorcycle sharing a spot with my Mazda2, as did several other residents in the building (one…

It looks like they used Woodbine Mall for shooting, so I sort of hope they find way to work in Fantasy Fair while they’re at it.

It’s a Compass, so has anyone checked for large metallic deposits in the ground that might have attracted it away from true North?

I only saw the first 10 minutes, but if the main girl's parents drove a Volvo EV rather than a Subaru Outback, none of this would've happened.

I’m still of the opinion that the WK2 Grand Cherokee is a better modern day Wagoneer than the Wagoneer we actually got. I’m sure it’s plenty good, but the design isn’t an all-time classic like the original (the WK2 at least feels a little more at home just about anywhere, while the new Wagoneer is screaming to be…

I’m not going to be bothered to check out their justification, but on the mortgage side, I wonder if CMHC plays into it at all.

I’m about Doug’s age, but I felt pretty GET OFF MY LAWN after one video where he started going on about how weird the floor mounted high-beam button was - cars built in our lifetime had them!

I pin this entirely on actual Millennial Seth Rogen, who looked 30 at 17, and kind of kept it up until he got to his 40s and the age/appearance normalized. 

He didn't just inspire Dr Evil, he also inspired the antagonistic CEO in Kids in the Hall's Brain Candy from the year before.

They're cheap for a reason, but the reason isn't always quality. I got a full set of Eibach springs for my Mazda2 for $50, because it turns out not a lot of people wanted to modify a Mazda2.

I’m not entirely sure how a company that holds everyone’s lives in disdain through cheating emissions software is okay, but you do you I guess.

I enjoyed Motorway, a 2012 Hong Kong movie (it screened at TIFF!). It’s a bit generic, but the chases were pretty well done, and some of them take really good advantage of the setting (like trying to maneuver through an impossibly small alleyway rather than just outright speed).

For something that got off to a rocky start (follow-up to the beloved E-Type, just all the assorted BL issues, and debuting a thirsty grand tourer in a decade of oil crises and economic troubles), the XJS both managed to have a long life (beyond helping spin off the DB7 and X100 XK8), and looks fantastic almost 50…

If we’re just going to spread disinformation, have some fun with it (for the record, Renault 25->Eagle Premier->Chrysler LH->LX).

GMT400's holding up well too.

I say this with the addendum that in my head it’s still 2002 and the car market hasn’t gone completely nuts, but the best Mustang is the best $5000 Mustang you can get (preferably with at least a bit of power). I will probably never completely get over the Fox Body being the epitome of cheap fun Mustang, even if we’re…

Well clearly the problem is your kid didn’t listen closely enough - when you’re a lad, you eat *four* dozen eggs, you don’t move up to five dozen eggs until you’re healthy and large and roughly the size of a barge.

Good list - where does the OG Kia Sportage rank there?

Something about Subaru Solterra doesn’t quite sit right - Sun, Earth, sounds like someone just grabbed a couple of nebulous eco-related words, Latinized them, and called it a day. I get the Earth portion at least, both the eco cred, and Subaru’s whole outdoorsy thing, but it’s the Sol that really throws me.
