This could be a useful commuter bike, but only if you could mount fenders on it. From what I can see, it looks like they didn’t even consider that, which is why this model will probably remain as just an expensive toy.

“Hack” journalism at it’s finest. Then, do a millennial insult by posting a rude meme. Gee, I guess we’re still in high school...Maybe she’ll insult you on Instagram next.
Well, over that last 30-some odd years, there were a few that stuck out: A guy on the west side of town has a Skoda sedan, and there used to be a grad student at a local university who drove around in a Citroen BX with Belgian plates. But the oddest car I ever saw on the roads was a Dymaxion. I’m pretty sure it was a…
I dunno, maybe somebody who knows something about cars? I mean, this IS an automotive website after all.
Although I doubt that there was a “lack of criminal intent” in this offense, there is also the wanton recklessness of his actions, which is also a very chargeable offense. Basically what it probably boiled down to was a bunch of ‘goober’ cops protecting ‘one of their own’ against a bunch of ‘outsiders’.
This car brings back memories; my mom gave me her 86 Escort 4-door hatch (which was worth basically a bit more than scrap) at a time when my current car was falling apart. If I’d known what a piece of garbage it was, I probably would’ve passed on it. This car had the 1.9l gas motor, and even it was gutless. change…
In no way was the Dodge Caliber a “good idea”. More like an idea based on cheap mediocrity and lousy quality. A car which was never anybody’s ‘first choice’.
Makes sense; on a car made mostly for racing, who cares how well the panels fit?
Well, the “Bug” was by Bond, not Reliant.
It’s a Scimitar. Was very stylish in it’s day. Princess Anne owned one.
I couldn’t afford to go, even if I wanted to....
The Citroen DS. Seriously, when that came out in 1954, there was NOTHING even remotely like it. An aerodynamic body with a pneumatic suspension at a time when you could still by a Dodge with a flathead engine! OK, the DS engine was a bit pedestrian, but everything else in the design was at least 30 years ahead of…
Some knucklehead down the street from me decided to just ADD a crosswalk, complete with paint and in-pavement reflectors. I’m expecting any day now that he’ll add his own stop sign there, too.....
Nice car, but.....man, it has nearly 1/4 million miles on it. The Rambler American really was a good car for the period, and the AMC inline 6 of that era was bulletproof. A great design saddled with mediocre styling, insufficient carburation, and by 1968, worsening quality control. This example is what we used to call…
You know what they say about not looking a gift horse in the mouth. But, the real question:......................Did they get to keep the car?
Police unions in the northeast always have this clause in their contracts; suspended WITH pay until adjudicated. This guy COULD end up collecting his full salary for a couple of years before being found guilty, THEN fired (but not until then..)
The Toyota pickups are called “Hi-Lux” in pretty much every country in the world except the US and Canada.
Saw a Chevy Spectrum once modified to “Rectum”....
I can vouch for that. When I was a cabbie, we all had radios. One snowy night, some drunk hit one of our cars head-on, and fled the scene. The driver got on the radio, and I just happened to spot the car. So me and another driver chased him all across town, until he got stuck in somebody’s front yard trying to…
Man, what happened? Did you go down Cajon Summit in Georgia Overdrive???
