i loved suzuki, my son had the last vitara suv and it was a solid reliable vehicle. they failed in the u.s. because they never had a vehicle that made you want it over what else was out there. their base model cheapest car only got 28 mpg. the vitara was reliable but didn’t have a smooth enough ride etc. and the…

kids, when i was a kid and saw a 2 year old white ‘58 t bird, i never forgot it, i told my mom , i’m gonna get one of those when i grow up, she laughed and said i would forget about it by then, well i still havent got one yet and times runnin out, but it’s still number one on the bucket list

on top of all the points in this article, i never have understood riding a bike in the vaginal exam position, not only does this put most your weight right on your tail bone, but it makes it impossible to stand on the pegs for bigger bumps, this is basic safety having your center of mass over your feet

there are contacts in trickle/maintainers that turn off power to battery when needed, it’s possible after enough cycles to wear off the plating on the contact face, this can cause them to stick and over heat the battery to the point the gasses ignite

makes one respect Roberts even more knowing he flat tracked a bike powered by one of these engines. after riding it he said, “they don’t pay me enough to ride that thing.” the bike was then banned, if King Kenny was afraid of it........

late 60's early 70's Jeep

watching the race on dvr, guess i should have known not to get on here until i finished! my bad

they’ve been doing this for decades in Texas

back in 72 or 73 they had a race at Ontario motor speedway called the Questor grand prix. it was indy cars vs f1 cars. indy cars didn’t have many road courses on their schedule as they do now, and the race was on the infield road course. mario won it in an f1 ferrari, and i think mark donohue was the highest finishing…

since you are so well versed on these kind of smaller companies, did you know that DAF were making cvt trans for decades? me and an old buddy were saying back in the early 80's that a car would probably get better mileage with one, and then found out that DAF were already doing it

sure, according to my research this thing might cost more than some of the trucks are worth that, never mind, only the guys that can buy these new trucks that cost over twice as much as my first house will be able to buy one. the cheapest roll up hard cover i found was $750 and up so this will no doubt be almost twice…

put a slight bend or curve in the fins to make it rotate a little and it will come closer to going straight up

the 55 chevy was the final dagger in the heart of a number of car makers that were scratching to keep up with the big 3. by the end of the decade Studebaker, Hudson, Packard, Kaiser-Frasier, etc, were gone. these cars were available with V8 engines and a lot of options for less than some other brands and the styling…

George Carlin did a bit on this once with his final comment,”either it flams or it doesn’t flam!”

too many variables because of lean and balance, waste of time and money, it will never work

I think this is the best book ever on racing. accidentally found it in a library back in the 70's. i was already the biggest fan of his and couldn’t put it down. my favorite story is when he and Penske decided to team up with Porsche to race in can am series, they had a demo for the press and he did some laps in the…

traveled to California last year pulling a trailer, entered southern cali needles area and found out no matter the speed limit i was to go no faster than 55 since i was with trailer. destination was Fresno area,that’s hella long way to be goin no more than 55. some other state gonna get my tourist dollars from now on.

without video i would say that driver may have floored the gas, it stuck open, and driver panicked instead of slamming on the brakes, it has happened before, just sayin

this is high on my bucket list, especially with the Mark Donohue spoiler

title pick, not an suv. a two door coupe cannot be called an suv
