Still too pricey and rigid, if they really want to do this Tesla should commit fully and make FSD rentable by-the-trip since around town/on a regular commute is probably the last place it’ll be able to live up to its’ name. So for $9.95 ($19.95 bundled with some Supercharging if you’re going over 500 miles) you should…

Welllll....d...

Tom Bodett, is that you?

I’d heard about the MR2 “Hose from Hell” and as for the Sable it’s a known fact that the first operation on an auto assembly line is hanging the heater core from a string and they then build the whole car around it. 

I’ve done it on the Yaris, took me an afternoon and damn straight I replaced both bulbs while I was in there even though only one was burnt out. OTOH I only had to do it once in the 12 years I owned the car, toward the end of that period.

Scrolled down, saw the sandwich, thought there was going to be an Eat the Rich comment. 

It would be badged Dodge or Chrysler, not Buick. I know, I have trouble with the whole “Opel’s not part of GM anymore, and somehow connected to Mopar” thing too.

IMO it’s not as bad a problem for something like the Bronco which is its’ own model on its’ own platform (indeed, BOF chassis) made expressly for the American market as it is for something like the Focus RS or Civic Type R where corporate wants to make a go/no-go decision on federalizing the next generation, which is…

In a parallel-universe where they were racing MkII Escorts at Talladega, that would mean they had been sold new in the US market so would have sidemarker lights, big bumpers and of course be left-hand drive. Probably a plastichrome grille, chrome-ringed taillights and Ford’s “Tolkien” steering wheel (one ring to rule…

Soylent Green is made of TACOS!

Chevy Cavalier Z24?

I’d wonder what’s going on with all the additional wiring, especially on a 2008 E-Series - a transitional year, with the redesigned front clip but the old dash, which would have me worried about one-year-only parts in the cowl area. 

It also makes your truck useless as a truck.

I mean, seriously, why aren’t the seats blue to start with!?!

I’ve noticed that’s a problem with only one window being open at highway speeds, especially a back one. Next time your kid does that, open yours too - an inch should be enough - and the airflow through the car will be much smoother.

I keep saying Elonites make me glad the natural-born citizen clause of Article 2 exists.

This is where manual fore-aft sliders come into their own. Power seats move back and forth in their own (slow) time, manual ones go as quick as you push or pull them.

I always thought if Ford were thinking ahead a bit they could’ve based the Ranchero on the Skyliner. With the top welded in place and the rear panel made into a tailgate, it would’ve had a respectable-size pickup box. A two-door hardtop crewcab!
