You are not alone my friend. I much prefer a traditional gauge cluster to the digital screens. Yes, digital screens have attractive designs and interesting animations, but frankly all I really need them to tell me is the status of speed, rpm, coolant temp, oil pressure, battery charge, and fuel level. Everything else…

I’m with you. Ford and GM appear to be in direct competition for cheapest interior materials. Ford goes for most hideous look, and GM for most playskool look. If i’m paying the big bucks (3 years down the road when the big bucks are $25K, that is), I am looking for something like FCA did for the Ram 1500 in 2019. 

I like that gauge. However, I’m assuming this is stolen given the smashed glass in the gauge cutout.

There is actually a practical reason not to double click. It is very easy to flood the vapor emissions systems with liquid fuel when you do that, which can kill a sensor, ruin a valve, or ruin the charcoal canister. All of these will kick a check engine light, which will then tell your ECU that there is a problem, and…

Parts availability is an issue here. I couldn’t do it for $8,500 when I could probably get a much newer 5 series for the same price and a parts market that still exists. The BMW ad itself wasn’t the most annoying part however, that was the 141,000 autoplay ads in the article. 

I have a theory. There are not more speeders on the road during this crisis, rather there are far fewer risk averse, therefore safe speed drivers, on the road as a whole, leaving the highways wide open to the more risky in nature. Since police are essential services, they are seeing reduced traffic, and therefore…

I wonder if car makers feel a sense of embarrassment when employees show up to work every day in cars made by the competition. I am surprised at how few Hondas that I see in that lot. 

Next you’re gonna tell us that water is wet. 

I couldn’t do it for 2 reasons. First, it is a “Cadillac” that is wrong wheel drive. FWD does not say luxury car to me, it says, lazy badge-engineered trash. The second, Northstar V8s are famously unreliable, and prone to a litany of failures. 

I think the whole process would have to be gone through again for MRAPS. The HMMWV is on death row in the US Military, the MRAP and MATV are the wave of the future.

I hope Activision makes these HMMWVs are realistic as possible, right down to the need to replace the transmission every 30,000 miles, the engines giving up the ghost at 60,000 miles, the brakes being shot within weeks or replacement, the air conditioning instantly breaking when the HMMWV rolls out of the shop, and of…

My dad had an 1983 Olds Ninety Eight when we were very young. It was that car and the 1986 Ford Crown Victoria Station Wagon that he replaced it with that kick-started my love affair with Land Yachts.

I didn’t really grow up in neighborhoods where I blended into the crowd, so the hero cars weren’t really reflective of my tastes. As far as I can tell, the first neighborhood’s hero car was a 1980s Chevy Caprice on 45" spinner rims. The second neighborhood’s hero car was a John Deere 5405 with your sister posing on…

My neighbor has 2 of these. One he dailys and the other he tracks. I’d steal one if he wouldn’t notice.

Easiest answer of my life:

I wonder if, when they wrote that ad, they thought about the fact that all 100 of those horses would out run the triumph as it would be sitting on the side of the road with a cloud of steam billowing from under the hood. 

I think I might have been a strange kid in my vehicle tastes. I had a picture of an Austin Seven from the 1922, and a 1948 Ford F-1. It’s especially strange in that I ended up a Mopar man. The Viper surely would have been there If I could have afforded the poster back then. 

1st Gear: I’m not sure how many people will be able to take them up on cash for clunkers even when this is over. the unemployment rate is about 13% now, and I assume will continue to climb as the virus continues to spread and more businesses have to shut their doors. When the recession happened, the layoffs were less…
