I’ve never seen the draw of convertibles. Drive them during the day and you get a sun burn; drive them at night and you get moths in your car. Wind in your eyes drying out your eye balls, less torsional rigidity, can’t keep papers in your car, higher fatality in rollovers, and for what? Maybe if you really like…
That’swear from where the driver tests their heel -- I wore straight through the factory floor mats in my Mustang directly below the accelerator by leaving my heel there for 8 years. NP.
You missed the Ford Maverick Tremor, which is honestly enough offroad capabilities for most people.
With a Bocephus sticker on his 442 he’d light ‘em up just for fun
My daily driver is a 2014 Mustang GT I bought new and have put 90k miles on. I won’t be getting rid of it when I get my next electric car. But I don’t believe that gas stations will really be a thing that still exists in most areas 10 years from now; petroleum companies simply won’t be able to continue refining…
I can’t charge a car at home; I’ll have to either spend like $10k to install a new electrical system and charger, or I’ll just have to use fast chargers in public lots and spend 6 hours a week reading in my car or whatever while it charges. Either way is more realistic than than buying a gasoline powered car in a…
My mom is 69; my uncle is 61. They learned to drive in the 70's; that’s the last time manual transmission vehicles were prevalent. They’re the only people I know who know how to drive a manual. I can’t remember the last time I even saw a manual shifter in a car I walked past in a parking lot; it would be like seeing a…
I’m pretty sure I have purchased my last car with an internal combustion engine. I have about 3 1/2 years of payments left on my wife’s Lexus, and once that’s done I’ll be buying myself a replacement daily driver for my by-that-time 12 year old Mustang... there’s no way that anybody should be buying internal…
Door handles and side view mirrors are kind of the last frontier of eliminating aeordynamic drag, and so on electric vehicles designed to maximize range, it makes a noticable difference. Don’t know if it’s worth it, though. But if you can get 20 miles of extra advertised range with a fake door handle, I think the…
Don’t know what I’d do without AM radio for live local sports.
The automatic shifting to park thing is an absolute no. There are times when you need to be able to drive with the driver’s door open -- most recently happened to me this past weekend, when I was parallel parked on the left side of the street, opened my driver’s door, and it got caught on the sidewalk. Need to be able…
High boost turbo engines are just begging to fail. I’ve only ever owned one forced induction engine (my wife’s 3 series I had on a lease from 2018 to 2021) and I will never again get a car with a turbo. Of course, I’m pretty sure every car I’ll be buying from here on out will be electric, so, moot point anyway.
Man, I cannot disagree more. I use the nav literally every trip I take unless it’s less than a couple of miles where I know the route by heart. There’s going to be traffic and I’m going to be turning off the highway to take side streets where there’s backups and I’m going to need to know where I’m going.
I always shut this off on every car I drive with it. So obnoxious.
It’sa high quality leather for seating surfaces, ages just fine.
I’m 41. The vast majority of people I know are under 60. None of them know how to drive a manual. Other than in European taxis, I haven’t even been a passenger in a car with a manual since the 90's.
Most people don’t know how to drive manuals. I don’t know anybody under the age of 60 who knows how to drive a manual.
In 2004, roughly 85% of the US market for consumer televisions was made up of cathode ray tube devices. By 2008, CRT’s made up less than 50% of the sales of new televisions; by 2011 they were effectively no longer sold. According to a Bloomberg analysis, 2017 was the peak year of production for internal combustion…
Starting at 1 minute and 17 seconds of that video, you see the cop car pull towards the house, and you see two people ***slowly*** get out of the pickup truck and start walking towards the door of the house. One of them has something in his hand but his hand is lowered at his side and he is walking away from the cop…
