Just remember that if a Camry is the winner you have to put a big dent in the rear bumper.

I must be very odd for the millennial group. As someone in that age group (30) with a good job that lets me buy nice things and everytime I see anything like those MB ads that are trying too hard I basically think “go fuck yourself” and try to avoid those products. I made it 30 seconds into the second video before…

Trying to appeal to millennials...And failing...Just like everyone else. It all comes off as trying to hard and seem to bre targeting the group of millennials that probably can’t a afford a new car anyways.

TIL that I was abused by my parents. I was allowed to cruise my dad’s golf cart all over the neighborhood (small town, rural, cul de sacs all over, with one entrance into the neighborhood) with no supervision while I was in elementary school. The next door neighbor who was the same age was allowed to do the same on a…

Agreed. The Aztec might not be the best looking car but it was one of the first crossovers and pretty functional and while it’s driving dynamics are not great today, they weren’t considered bad 16 years ago.

“Torque Management” of some kind is common in almost all vehicles today. Almost seems universal to see: pulling ignition timing when it’s about to shift, limiting throttle opening off the line, and keeping it lean for a few seconds before going rich for power after giving an input for full throttle.

Funny how it’s always the same arguments any time SUVs/CUVS pop up around here.

Is there not a time frame limit on oil changes in the manual or does it just say 10,000 miles? The car was a 2005 and the video was posted in 2011, that’s some old as shit oil even if it’s only seen 9,000 miles.

They’re tested for all that shit but can be brought down with a mixture of nitrate salts and kitty litter.

False. The correct answer is a ton of hard work combined with a nice cocktail of performance enhancing drugs. It has to be the good stuff that US athletes are using that’s not currently detectable though, not that cheap shit Russia uses.

Damn I never get tired of looking at 747s. Probably one of the prettiest planes ever made. It’s a shame Boeing will most likely stop producing them as it seems they’re just trying to keep the production line running long enough to fill the gap until delivery of the two new presidential planes.

Planes don’t do well with moving loads, especially on take off and landing. To me it seems it’d have to be an all or nothing deal. It’s both completely filled and completely emptied so there’s no room in the water tanks or nothing in the tanks for “sloshing.”

A bus on tracks? So a train.

$20 the guy’s family sues the dealership. Merica!

If you need your car to automatically shift to park when you get out you probably shouldn’t be driving.

Pretty standard practice. As long as there’s no immediate threat, passengers are safer on the plane and being unloaded by stairs or a jet bridge and herded straight to a bus to the terminal. Outside the plane on the tarmac they’re more exposed and often get in the way of emergency services. Also, injury rates when…

GM has been doing this for a while. When the battery starts getting low a “BATTERY LOW START VEHICLE” message shows up in the instrument cluster. If it’s not started soon it automatically shuts off everything.

They can bring a passenger version over without being hit with the 25% chicken tax.

Honestly, I rarely use a parking brake, only on an incline to make the shifter easier to move (and quieter). Everyone can trash talk all they want but how often do you hear of parking pawls breaking? Pretty much never on newer cars that electronically prevent the pawl from engaging if the vehicle is moving. Its made…

It’s a dumb design but it isn’t rocket science. You push it all the way forward and hold it a second until the “P” lights up.
