I’m glad someone else hates the spyder.
The VW W8 and all of its watercooled alternator and hellish timing system glory...
There’s a guy here in WV that owns 2. A red black similar to above and a tractor yellow one. Both can be seen annually at the boulevard car show in Charleston in October.
Volvo, the safest cars in the world just got safer. And much more attractive.
Nice shirt! I’m wearing mine right now! And I also wore it to Volvo factory technician training. The guys from Volvo Cars North America loved it
Stay classy Japan.
One major omission is drinking water and a small amount of non perishable food. I’ve broken down in the woods (thanks antique Wagoneer) many MANY miles from civilization. its good to be able to quench thirst and quell hunger either in the midst of a repair or en route to find help.
This happened to me. I had a 2013 VW Jetta 2.0 NA 5-speed base model special. Got it because I needed a car (P71 threw a rod), had a good job (WV coal miner), and the engine tranny combo in those cars is almost guaranteed for 250K miles without major problems.

Lada Niva.
NOT BROWN! NOT BROWN!! NOT!!! BROWN!!!!
Steve McQueen hands down. He lead a more bad ass life than anyone reading this has. i just want to pound shots and listen to his stories.

And for breeding bat*hit insane mutants Ford Hoonicorn and Hyabusa powered Isetta
x1000 YES!!! and build threads!!! PLEASE!!!
I once had an irrational love for an FSJ. It cost me $400 and I yanked it out of a field in southern backwoods WV. The 2 of us wheeled, did burnouts, drank together (10mpg), bled, sweat, and cried together, and we even laughed together (the starter sounded like it was laughing at me every time it stalled at a…
“...old Jeeps all share one common trait: they drip with soul and character.”
Maybe not a theft, but the disappearance of the remains of The Little Bastard, James Dean’s Porsche. Possibly the greatest coup ever because it “just disappeared” out of that container.
“I know you love cars so can you fix this ::appliance, computer, airplane, lawnmower:: for me?” just because you like cars does not make you a mechanic. Also just because you are an automobile mechanic, doesn’t mean you can fix lawnmowers and you auntie’s 1963 Maytag Wash-O-Matic with new 2 speed variable wobble…
