They’re just the right amount of angular and aggressive without trying too hard. I don’t dig on CUVs much but yeah this one has always looked the part.

10/10 for the idea, 6/10 on execution and condition.

Escort ZX2, not an empirically good car by any stretch, but I have always liked them, even now when I see a survivor I admire it. I know it isn’t a “good” car but I just love them for no good reason aside from they make me smile.

“And Then I Asked The Leopard If It Would Care For A Cordial Or A Coffee After That”

Note: he didn’t fail the field sobriety test; refusal to take it is an automatic failure in pretty much every state, however.

Wait a minute - his BAL was 0.067. The limit is 0.08 (at least where I am). And you can easily be impaired under the ‘legal limit’, and still subject to prosecution. So no - at least here - 0.067 is absolutely not a guarantee that the dude was ‘sober enough to drive’.

No idea if something like that is even feasible,

.067 is pretty high though... Might not be legal limit high, but I know myself and I’m pretty buzzed by .05, let alone .067. If the dude was swerving “putting on a seatbelt” something tells me this guy was driving impaired, which is still illegal. Yes .08 is the legal limit but you can still get a DUI while under .08…

I’ve seen at least 2. One is stock and the body just looks hilariously bad. The body panels are all splotchy and discoloured, and none of them are flat. I’ve seen dilapidated camper trailers with flatter sides.

Can’t drive it or sell it. Love the car though! 

It was most likely used by the owner’s kids, with a dealer tag on it. Maybe a rental or service loaner, but those are typically reported as fleet or service, to get those incentives. There is an outside chance that it was sold and by accident never reported, and turned up somewhere for warranty work or recall and…

I will probably die in my AZ-1 lol.

I don’t understand this safety regulation stuff for cars when motorcycles are completely legal...What is this safety for? It’s so backwards, trucks and SUVs should be regulated out the ass simply because they have the potential to cause more external damage than smaller cars. Is my thinking incorrect?

Because Americans, like Alton Brown, hate unitaskers. Most people should be using mini cars in places they make sense like dense urban areas, and renting a pickup from Home Depot for $25 for the 75 minutes they actually need them every other year. We should also be building out robust public transportation on the…

The thing that really kills me about all that nonsense is that people are putting their kids at risk. It’s fine and dandy for an adult to make a stupid, ill-informed decision for themselves, they can all go die if that’s what they want to do. But children don’t have that agency. Putting innocent children at risk…

It’s what they do everywhere, sometimes to hilarious results. Sure, the big department seizes a Lambo and it’s awesome, but back in the mid 2000s, the Prescott, Wi cops had to settle for an old Cavalier with a giant wing and every item of car bling Kmart sold including the shiny 5-spoke plastic hubcaps. I felt sorry…

Is Melon Usk paying you to simp for Tesla here?

From what I read, it was a gift to him and he was pushed to go.

I usually throw some defense to the passengers, which is usually met with a lot of angry replies, but this story illustrates exactly why. I’m sure if the passengers were made aware of this and the many other issues and people/organizations telling the company this was all a bad idea, they never would have gotten in…

The only person I feel bad for in all of this is the billionaires son. Wasn’t he, like, scared to go in the first place?
