Absolutely the first car I thought of when I saw this Fiat.

Getting to carry out body parts of someone who was driving too fast, didn’t expect a deer in the middle of the road ahead, slams into it and then an oak tree, sticks with you.  Join your local volunteer fire company or EMS squad and show up to a few fatal car accidents, it will cure you of this. Just because there

Jalopnik: Driving like an asshole is bad. Don’t drive like an asshole, especially if you are a race car driver.

This was rough to watch and I certainly feel for him and his family and hope he has a good recovery.

It certainly isn’t an elegant design, but I have always been strangely fascinated by them, maybe because they are so odd. 

It might even rip you ear off

A yellow Ferrari with gold wheels and “Mike Tyson” emblazoned on all sides is an easy CP.

The first thing I thought of was maybe this is Mr. Hilter. 

I read Wear your mask while driving as a reminder not to touch your face.

Don’t really care if they are properly or improperly secured, I don’t like flags on moving vehicles. On the other hand, they are kind of like giant idiot markers so I know who to stay away from...so maybe they should stay.

My comment isn’t about political flags, it is about gigantic stupid flags in general. Don’t care what they say or support, just don’t think they belong on the back of a car or truck going 80 MPH down the highway, or anywhere other than a parade.

Do any states have motor laws that prohibit the mounting of gigantic flags on cars while driving in anything other than a parade? I am so sick of seeing this crap. I am waiting for one of these flags to go flying off of bro-truck only to impale itself through the windshield of a car behind killing an innocent bystander

My impression was that these would be given to a department not an individual, however nothing specifically indicates this. Mine, and I am sure most are, is a not-for-profit, so the the tax issue wouldn’t apply.

When it says ‘giving away’, does that mean Ford is just picking two random departments to give these to, or is this a contest that departments can enter and show their need for such a vehicle. I have read the article twice and clicked through the links and find nothing I can see indicates either.

Forgot about that, only because when she was looking for a car, we had crossed VW off of our list because of how much trouble we had with one we owned previously. It was always in the shop or something stupid was always breaking, or both. Hopefully they are better now.

I know Hyundai gets a lot of crap for different reasons, but the Veloster is a fun little car to throw around. 

This is exactly how my wife ended up with a Veloster. She had two criteria for her car: manual and satellite radio. At the time, the Veloster was one of two that came up with that combo, the other was Mazda 3, but she hates with a passion the tablet on the dash interior design which is common lately.

I was really hoping for an overhead shot, too.

Curious as to how much the fine would be, I am sure LH won’t even blink an eye paying it if there is one, and I am pretty sure it wouldn’t stop him from wearing the shirt or something similar. But, if there is a fine, LH should use his leverage to force the FIA donate the fine to an organization of his choice.

I want to like the Haas team and want them to be successful. But it seems like Gunther creates a toxic environment and the two drivers are less than stellar. In the end I guess the team doesn’t really matter and if they go, some other wealthy individual will buy what is left and make a go of it.
