I've owned two ex rentals. Both were rock solid the whole time I had them. If Hertz was offering as good a deal on something I actually wanted I'd take it.

Finally rebuild my 4LSLIPPY that's needed it for a year.

Yes.

1st Gear: Welcome to the billionaire oligarchy.

My favorites are the “Mucho Macho” and “Mayrun”.

This is why tires are the one thing I don’t cheap out on. Even when I buy “cheap” tires for a beater, they’re from a name brand like Nexen or Kumho, or the value line from a big brand (like Primewell from Bridgestone/Firestone).

This person took the question seriously.

That or a Ford 8N/9N.

I respect that answer. My Mustang II drag car had a manual rack and a manual valve body C4 with a ratchet shifter, so even just moving it in and out of a parking spot on its rare street excursions meant planning ahead and thinking through it.

First choice?

1st Gear: I’d buy a Nissan with a Honda powertrain, but not the other way around.

The Mustang II was actually a great car, and is still a fantastic platform to build a cruiser, drag car, or autocross car out of. (I’ve done two out of the three, and there’s a guy that did such a good job of building one for autocross that it got featured in Popular Hot Rodding, he and I discussed suspension on…

Minivans are superior to crossovers in virtually every way. If I didn’t tow trailers with heavy stuff on them somewhat regularly, I’d have one instead of a pickup or SUV, and I’ve still considered one.

I was in love with it until I found out there was no V8 option. I’m a mechanic for a living, I’ve been working on cars for 22 years. Do you know what keeps me the busiest right now at the all makes/models shop I’m working at? Twin-turbo V6 trucks. Do you know what keeps my friends at Toyota and Ford dealerships busy?…

My SL1 was the slowest car I’ve ever owned. It made a 1974 Mustang II with the 2.3L and the 4-speed look like greased lightning.

Literally anything Scotty Kilmer has ever said.

It was for context, not bragging.

Bronco IIs can be aquired for virtually nothing. A clapped out Ranger that runs and drives still commands more than I make in a week (and I make six figures annually).

I’d bet good money that you’re the minority. I mean, how many boomers do you see lusting over Model Ts, sedan deliveries, and other pre-war stuff?

You can ignore everything before 1980 on the list.
