Haha, just trying to illustrate that the tride-and-true car lovers of today are still getting their kids into cars. There's just fewer of them around. I really don't see it as a bad thing.

You just have to examine the greater trends. Fewer kids are driving. Oh no! Well, ask yourself why that is? Ask yourself what the results might be. Fifteen years ago you had all kinds of kids running around, bolting ill-fitting Porsche wheels onto their Volkswagens and calling themselves "car guys". They weren't in it…

Pat, I'm really struggling as to why you and seemingly everyone else is freaking out about this. I'm 24 years old. I'm a massive gear-head. I built the engine that's in the car I currently drive. By hand. In my basement. You can pry my manual transmission from my cold, dead hand. Et cetera. A smaller percentage of my…

I take back everything I said. That car is refined and sophisticated compared to this monster.

It would cost $39,000 just to un-fuck that poor car.

I concur. What really baffles me is how the reduced amount of miles being driven in the USA is seen as a "problem". How is this not a good thing!? How is the fact that everyone is still getting on with their lives while driving less not of net benefit to the entire goddamn world?

It is not unusual for lightweight composite body-panels to judder like that. The car looks rock-solid compared to a lot of purpose-built drag cars which can look like they're trying to peel themselves apart during the burn-out. As long as the hood doesn't crack or fly open at speed there's no problem with what it's…

I like how the light was green for approximately one hour before he set off. His fussing around with the launch control means that, in a real bracket-race, he would have gotten his ass kicked.

Responsible, mild use of nitrogen-adding, artificially-derived fertilizers is not the issue. Given your background, you are probably one of the minority of farmers that engage in such practices.

No no, there's no chemical similarity between fertilizer and the oxidizing agent that caused the PEPCON disaster. The oxidizer in rocket fuel is not derived from petroleum as far as I know. Modern fertilizers, however, very much are.

This shit is what is used to grow your food people! More petroleum gets used to produce fertilizer than we burn in our cars! Modern agriculture is a wretched, unsustainable system that is making this nation sick as a whole. It is destroying our health, it is destroying our ecosystem and, through disasters such as this…

Sorry mate, but looking at other types of booze and food, I can't help but think that the purveyors of high-end wine encourage the descriptive jargon to be needlessly complex and generally impenetrable to the lay-person. Red wine is like Scotch. The differences between different reds are just not particularly vast in…

You people are all discussing second-rate cures. The best hangover cure, by a very long way, is the good-ole Dutch remedy.

It's called making a compromise for the sake of ride comfort. Some people have performance cars AND wives/girlfriends.

That's not objectification, that's professionalism. Concepts like objectification are not universally applicable. They are totally situation-dependent. It's a two-way street. The hot, naked dude is a model. He knows he's a model. He knows what he's there for. His job is to pose and your job is to creatively interpret…

Christ. At first glance I thought these reflections of the roof beams where massive scratch marks. I was all: "NOOOoooo...Oh"

Posh cat is here to correct your misspelling of British colloquialism.

"I rarely talk about ... It's just going to end up causing an argument."

This has to be the most concise explanation of the issue I have yet heard. Spot on.
