W would have just had a set of truck nutz and a confederate flag.

Every weekend I drive by a pole barn that has an 80's RWD Deville Cadillac front clip coming out the side of it. Bonus - At about 8 feet off the ground. I've never bothered to take a picture, this is the first time I wish I had one.

I'll take mine in Ultra Violet please.

Keep on keeping on. I haven't been around a lot either but I got to keep an eye on the proceedings so I check in from time to time.

Well that's not what I said but a system that rewards unbridled greed and government graft definitely had a hand in what happened to Detroit and will likely continue.

It's been one big Cinderella Ball after another. Most of the crises have abated somewhat. The Corvette lives! Sorta. It didn't want to but I seem to have found a happy medium. It still reserves the right to run differently depending on temperature, humidity and whether I've sacrificed enough live goats that day…

An '85 Toyota for about the same price as a decent C5 Corvette? I think I'll pass. For $1500 more I can get a nice 68 Camaro driver.

Detroit is the prototype post apocalyptic American city. It won't be long before the rest of the country starts to look a lot like it. The circle jerk that has become American politics will continue it's unabated slide into incoherence and gut the remaining infrastructure in the name of untaxed profits and political…

The "reliability" of most Japanese brands has been greatly overplayed. I've owned them, they're cars. They need brakes and belts and struts and leak just like every other car I've ever owned. But to hear the indoctrinated sing their praises you'd think that if you buy one you'll wake up every morning to elves hand…

I probably overcompensate. As proof here's a picture of my impression of a fat broke-ass James Bond in front of my pride and joy - a salvage title ugly as sin Corvette. I'm sure the Camry is a fine automobile. I'm just a bit more visceral. I like things with character. If it has enough character to actually…

For some reason these types of cars remind me of our society's obsession with germs and sanitizers. Everything needs to be obsessively sanitized to protect us and our children. It needs to be appropriately labeled for any possible danger or stupid acts that could be attempted. Above all it needs to be disposable. …

When I was just a pup and hanging out on street corners watching the hot rods in the late 70's, there used to be a guy running around here trolling for races in a silver 70-72 Chevelle. He had pried all the badging off his big block SS and stuck 350 badges on it. Standing next to it made it clear to anyone with ears…

All this GM hatred makes me want to go out and buy another GM. But I want to be popular like all the cool kids.

I've had three and they are pretty solid driver's cars with the DOHC six. Even my wagon could be pushed through the twisties at higher than legal speeds. It could haul ass and a load. Cops don't look at them and insurance is cheap. They are perfect camouflage for an old guy with a lead foot. I inherited a Honda…

I'd take a Taurus over an Accord or Camry any day. But I'm not pretentious snob (or try not to be anyway).

Sadly his mentality is more that of fortune 500 CEO's and legislators of a certain discipline. Only a person with no conscience can do what has become commonplace among these people. Most white trash trailer park rednecks have some minimal morals. It may just be not fucking up someone else's Camaro but it's at…

The only man I ever saw go backwards through the traps at 300+ on fire then give an interview about making the next round in a backup car whilst absent-mindedly picking off shreds of toasty Nomex.

I'm too old for this shit. Problem solved.

I vaguely remember a quick and dirty computer game based on her where she whipped hub caps at you and you had to dodge them and throw whiskey bottles back at her. A quick search revealed a dead link to a game called "Cap Attack" but no other results. Old memories die hard.

I'm going to guess there's not a lot of middle ground between those two.
