I suspect I’ve already seen the rest of this car, too. In fact, on my way to work this morning, I saw about a bazillionty of them, and they all look alike, to me.

Correction: This post has been updated to include how the Taco Bell beef lawsuit was settled, but the point stands that you should eat almost anywhere else.

That brown stuff they put in your tacos may look like beef and taste like beef, but is only 36 PERCENT BEEF!

You get a star for the tasty Rex; not for responding to an ad like it’s a real post.

Thanks for the tip. It was on the radar. Of course, that means that it must have been discontinued.

Case not closed!

I think that’s the fundamental reason why so few sedans have no rear wipers: because there really is no good reason. It’s all about design perception...

Skodas used the very clever Twindoor system, where the cars have both a trunk and a fully opening rear hatch, depending on how you chose to open the rear. It’s really pretty brilliant.

NP. My parents got talked into trading theirs in a few years ago with incentives, credit card points, etc., and regretted it since.

This is an acceptable answer.

This checks out. Dad had this very car, and we still make jokes about “the talking car.”

Damnit. Now I want snacks.

“FUV” is a nonsense term that tells you nothing about the car other than the fact that it is manufactured by Ferrari.

My memory’s fine, as is my reading comprehension. In Toyota’s case, the cars weren’t accelerating by themselves. Rather, they only accelerated when the accelerator was pressed, like good little cars.

Helpful example, and exactly my point.

Yes. Every time I hear one of those stories, I replace each instance of “the car” with “my dumb ass.”

This seems different.

Who really cares? They’re just design elements meant to evoke some feeling or memory.
