I don’t know about the wisdom of beginning this futile “dispute”, but if someone ASKS you how you feel about something then I think you are entitled to respond. I don’t see why people who enjoy the Marvel stream of vapidity should be offended that others don’t share their feeling - I do not expect everyone to like…

Reminds me of my uncle’s old Volvo 345 with an early CVT.

This 1987 Peugeot 505 Turbo S. $2200, one owner, all documents. It lasted until the electrics got too buggy.

Oh yeah, I saw it at Greenwich! They were selling a whole ton of Carroll’s old things there.

It’d be worth $100K for the fact that it sits on the original style rims and with nice, fat tires. I understand that these tires cost as much as a crate 351, which is why nearly all Panteras have shitty looking 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires, but I think the car deserves proper wheels.

The world is a much more serious place than I would like for it to be.

The G20 was only for North America. Infiniti entered the European market in 2008, only god/ghosn knows why they even tried.

I drove a 25-y.o. Tercel Wagon from LA to Baja one winter (and back). 4WD was nice in the sandy bits, while the scruffiness of the car made us largely invisible. The Montero should work just fine.

2580lb according to the builder.

Miatas and Hellcat engines are blessings except in terms of emissions. But yes, I had to read it twice myself as well.

Hm, watched the video, and now I think I’m actually agreeing with you...

Judging by the tire tracks in the photo, that is the point exactly.

Definitely happens. After a while one develops a sense for these things, but every so often I still get burned.

For the same reason Starbucks serves your latte scalded - they get more complaints if the pasta is “underdone” than they do if it’s overcooked. Or at least they did twenty years ago and the Darden manuals are probably still as they were back then.

I personally don’t enjoy using my calorie/salt/etc allowance on things that generally taste terrible. Plus, I worked in chain restaurants for many years and know only too much of the shenanigans and shortcuts that take place there. That being said, even individual franchises are different and I kind of love Red…

Yep. After two days of using a car with a backup camera, I reflexively look towards the middle of the dash when parking my own car.

I starred this even though as a long-time Jalop I severely judge anyone who drives a post-Sacco Mercedes-Benz.

I’m often accused of being a luddite, but I never minded having ABS in my Volvo 240. I’m fine without it, I think, but have never been in a situation where I can truly say it has affected me. Any system beyond that, though, is troubling to me. The anti-skid and whatnot on my POS Suzuki is constantly aggravating as…

Isn’t it fun not to be in debt slavery (for your car, at least)?
