I had an ‘04 Accent (1.6L, 4A), my lifetime average was only 26mpg, and I had a handful of tanks drop into the high teens (I also only had one tank ever beat 35mpg), through lots of city driving. Just a miserable little shitbox, and mine was only 10 years old and didn’t have much wrong with it that wasn’t wrong when…

Never going to claim that (I don’t believe I’d read it until just now), I hadn’t even heard of Shirley Jackson until the movie with Elizabeth Moss, just did a quick read a couple weeks ago.

See,that at least makes sense, the LX was embraced by, well, damn near everyone, but certainly hip hop.

I’m really seeing YouTube nightmare fuel that tries to trick you into thinking it’s for kids, hoping you’re using it as a babysitter.

I love the Nautica for goofy nostalgia reasons, but yeah, I’m not sure that much of the yacht club type (or wannabe yacht club type) were aspiring to minivans by ‘93. Now, if they’d done a Mountaineer Nautica, those things probably would’ve been everywhere.

Yes, absolutely some combination of letters (I went MG CB, but yours is probably better).

Want to guess what clothing brand Chrysler paired with for a special edition 200?

Very much Citroen, yes, although the SM’s interior looks a touch more welcoming than the DS’s flat sorta-bench seats.

Spent a couple years photographing inventory for dealers’ used car advertising online. Pay was shit, I spent hours driving around the metro area, it’s largely a thankless job (anything wrong with your work and you’ll get hell for it, but not much credit for doing it decently), and outside in all kinds of weather…

They more or less built that in the 80's as the Ford EXP (I mean, just regular Escort engines in the thing, but otherwise same idea).

I have my old Honda Rebel rotting away in the back of my garage, I want to start riding again, I should just get it roadworthy. But not now, maybe when my kid has enough attention span to help out (so that it’s a teachable moment or something rather than me taking time away from bigger priorities, like raising a kid).

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a box of Timbits that hasn’t had like one or two sad ones left over that no one wanted, but you expect me to believe there are people fighting over the last one?

My wife doesn’t drive stick, we have a kid who needs shuttled places (or we’d still have just kept our paid-off Mazda2), and the CX-5 is decent enough to drive, big enough for us, and hopefully trouble-free for years (plus, Mazda loyalty got me a better financing rate)

There’s only one good use for this - Cannonball!

If nothing else, the side scroller video game potential is amazing.

I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. But your parents are gonna love it.

Someone had better be called a CandyCaneAss by the end of it.
