Oopsies

C&D tested a Meyers Manxter buggy in 2006, they noted that it took almost as long to go from 100 to 110 as it did to go to the initial 100 because of the crappy aerodymanics.

So the opposite of the city I work in. They put the bike lane between the parked cars and the busy little 2 lane rd. The parallel section is bad anough, but the section where the cars are perpendicular is especially bad.

Here is an idea, sleep sitting up. My 14 y.o. does it all the time on trips. I personally doubt that I will ever trust one enough to try and take a nap while lying on my back. Especially in the early days when there is still a large mix of non-autonomous vehicles out there with their drivers trying to text and drive.

Lord I remember these and man I wanted one, but alas, I could not afford it back in ‘84, so I wound up with a used ‘81 Civic hatchback which I loved. Not as powerful, but man it was a fun little car to throw around. More amazing was how well it fit my 6'3" frame.

The point is to separate rich douches from their money.

My mother’s second gen Buick Riviera. I loved that car as a kid. It was red/maroon and had the rolling speed dial that was also used in the Toronado.

For the same reason Trump still tweets. He is a class A narcissist that thinks that everything is about him and all criticism must be crushed out like he is Conan the Barbarian.

To quote the great Nelson Muntz - " Ha Ha!" 

Battle car. It would be cooler than that cutup Z3 that was on Jalopnik last year. Has an indestructible turbo diesel and you wouldn’t feel bad about giving some sort of rattle can paint job due to the shape the paint is already in. I am thinking a flat gray or maybe a flat dark green. 

Late October 2010. We had been down in Alabaster Al. that evening doing some shopping and were headed back north in I-65. We were in a traffic jam for a over two hours on a 20 minute drive. There had been a wreck and the tractor trailer had caught on fire on I-65 at the Cahaba River Bridge. A man named Brent Mitchell r…

Reminds me of Hannibal Lecters mask.

Needs to advertise it up in Syracuse, because a Syracuse Orange fan might buy it to drive to games.

Chevy Chevettes had one and it was a total piece of shit. By 50k miles, the transmission was worn out and you had to hold it in reverse. It used 2 quarts of oil between changes. It rattles like mad. It was a total piece of crap. I totally regretted buy it,but it did get significantly better mileage than my 78 El…

I am going to agree with Kristen here. Get the Flex. I can haul anything you can throw at it, including a mountain bike in the hatch, no rack needed, but if you want one, they are available.

I am the recent purchaser of a 2017 in Ruby Red after my beloved Lincoln MKS got squished up beside a bridge on I65. So far I am…

I think David has it wrong. I don’t think the dog has drank out of the mystery Fluid Bucket, I think Kevlarlives ran out of Corona and decided that a quart of the Mystery Fluid would be a good substitute, instead he did not figure on it having psycho-active properties similar to lysergic acid diethylamid. Due to the…

For worst car, well I think it is a tossup between a Yugo and a Trabant. But I am going with Trabant because a, it has a tiny little two stroke engine and b, according to Jason Torchinsky in his excellent article The Trabant Is The Best Commie Car Made Of Cotton We’ve Ever Driven, livestock would sometimes eat the…

Ford Raptor. Hoonable both on and off road. Is a real pickup so can haul stuffs. Put on a bed cover and you now have a 5 1/2 ft. trunk. Seats 4 (5 if they really like each other or are small).

Its times like these that makes wish for a laugh button like Facebook!

My 72 Gremlin was the worst car I ever loved. Seriously, it was a piece of shit, but I really loved that car.
