Maybe it would be eventually... but the first few months would be like The Purge until enough hot heads got shot learning that just because you have a gun doesn’t mean you need to whip it out every time you get angry.

Thanks! As soon as I saw that pull into frame I screamed for my wife to come back and watch the trophy get delivered (we were rooting for Hamilton). She asked me, “What the fuck is that? What is that supposed to be?”

Tossed all the cool stuff, left a hole in the muffler along with a bunch of surface rust on the underside that would easily go away with some POR 15 and didn’t clean some dirty bits that would easily clean up, cut the roof off and then ask $40k for at best a $25k car?  Oh, because it’s the more desirable 5 speed,…

Well, I did find another Matador with that center split,

This option seems to be the best one here.  The dude designs toy cars... design your own car over a Miata, contact Jim Simpson, send portfolio with design, maybe get a car and a new job.

To answer the question at hand, what’s the one thing you wish non-car people understood about cars... There’s a lot to unpack there.

Addendum to that, if driving scares you, take lessons and learn how to do it so you are not scared.

40 CFR § 1068.101(b)(1)-(2)

Probably has an hour meter.

Besides what everyone else has said about the this, and I will precede this by saying I couldn’t find anything on what I’m about to say which probably means it’s one of those hazy areas that attorneys would love to play in...

I wouldn’t use that, but I know plenty of people who just can not parallel park.  I had to learn on a 1968 Pontiac Catalina, or as my friends called it, the USS Iowa.  I can parallel park without issues now.

I got it when I used to drive a LOT.  The ability to have access to Howard Stern is great, if you like almost any sports and drive anywhere during that season it’s almost mandatory, especially baseball.  The music channels are good, but it’s the ability to pull in whatever kind of music you want NOW with little to no…

Only if we’re still in the 1930's.

The wife’s new ride has this ‘feature’. First time we realised it was there (even though the sales dude told us about it) was stopped at a light on a 95 degree day when it all of a sudden started to get swampy real fast.

I did exactly that kind of thing when I had a MKIV Golf TDI. “Buddy, you know you’re putting diesel in that thing?!” Ahhh, it’ll be fine... modern computers and all... might smoke a bit more on start up but it helps keep everything lubricated. The hardest part of that was trying not to laugh so hard that they caught…

Question Alanis, would any of them have been better with an undertone of lightly toasted rubber or a sparkling hint of racing fuel?

He might have a better time if he could keep out of the gravel traps and such. And apparently he managed to this past weekend.

Saw the back and forth with Bosh. I have no idea if he was really an F1 fan before he met Hamilton or not, but it didn’t matter. That was spot on one of the best impromptu interview clips I’ve seen when they’re walking the grid.

You might surprise yourself... depending on how much you love your car. I’m not endorsing this, but if a deer just attempted suicide by running in front of my car and was looking up from the road at me, I’d find a way to finish that bastard off.

I’m white, if I had done that as a kid my father would have made me go get my ass whooping at the other kids house before he gave me one at ours.  No excuse for that kind of behaviour.
