@FodderTheSane: If you have to step up into it, can't see for shit out of it, and it takes effort to put something on the roof, it's not a wagon, it's a miserable failure.

I've never said this about a NPOCP car before, but it'd be worth a glance at twice that price.

On the other hand, 45 mph is faster than what most 1994 Pontiac Sunbird Convertibles still in existence will do on dry land.

I've been saying for a while that Australia seems to be making it their goal to out-UK the UK.

@B-Sel: This is an awfully specific rule.

As far as seat belts go, I don't care about you, but I don't want your stupid arse flying into ME, and fucking ME up, especially if I'm still trying to control the situation.

@Van Sarockin, rogue trebuchet: Yeah, it's not actually an apple, it's a LeMon. Stayed on the track all weekend (New England, this past weekend), too, and probably placed well.

@Maxis47: I fully support iPod integration in optional, higher-end stereos, but never in lieu of a 3.5mm jack for Walkman cassette players, real mp3 players, cell phones, laptops...

@Kulprit442: Good! My friend's stepfather's in... probably his mid-to-late 30s now, and he's the most batshit-insane (and most skilled) driver I know. Hooning beater cars from your mid-teens on forward does tend to help with that.

@senorducklives: Well, parents drink and smoke cigarettes with their kids around. I think secondhand smoke and alcohol-induced anger/incompetence is as dangerous as any result of marijuana. Certainly not defending any of 'em, though.

I maintain that you haven't lived until you've had to take a ring (a proper metal ring, a size or two too small) off your finger once it's swelled up.

@calzonegolem: That would probably make it more douchey.

@theart: Clearly, his name is Gabe L. Wermar, and this is his Yuhoeban.

@JackTrade: How'd ya check? Jumping up and down? Climbing onto your vehicle? Periscope? Stepladder? Mirror-on-a-stick?

@essper: Half the basketful are yellow - please specify further. That red one looks nice, ripe and juicy, though. Actually, they both do...

@Bad Juju and the Axle Tramps: I get the sense that if you won that particular auction, you wouldn't be receiving any Moorhead until you sold it.

@aceofcakes: Drive a cosmetically-lacking vehicle and write down the plate number of anyone you do this to. If it's a shiny sports car/bro truck, a note under the windshield letting them know that fact goes a long way; if it's a beat-up minivan or family sedan, your odds of getting hit are higher, and odds of actual…

@PHIL: I hear that guy's a crook. Personally, I've always been treated right by the gentlemen at Dixon, York, Hunt and Ash.

If Carlo actually tried to eat that many apples in one sitting, he'd wanna barf.

@aaron x: I've got the spiritual successor, a 1989 244 that I keep gassed, repaired, and (once I actually have a regular job, not for lack of trying) insured.
