Pretty much have to be an utterly perfect human being who hasn’t so much as glared at someone who cut you off in traffic if you want the other party to consider you a “good president” huh? Unless its your own side and then Atilla the Hun is a great guy if he polls high enough.

Yum yum! Baked rubber!! Yeah I’m not a big of the tire-next-to-motor arrangement. I’ve seen how badly weak rubber degrades in a remarkably short time under the hood, I couldn’t imagine a sealed spare tire under pressure not suffering any issues over time. I know the logic and science behind vulcanizing and heat…

These are utterly lovely, I hate him so. I once got to play with an early 1970s medium format for some portrait/art work in high school. Unfortunately I had to return the camera. I wish I had the wherewithal to take film photos with an old camera nowadays.

Gotta say the police auctions are interesting beasts. Our first purchase was an ‘87 Saab 900. During cleaning I turned up the remains of a crack pipe and steel wool. The wool was tossed in the trash and the pipe was smashed under my foot. The second purchase was an ‘86 Dodge W150 we bought for the solid cab. I…

Don’t forget some of the intra-department shared posts that have some tenuous transportation related theme that barely qualifies for Jalopnik status.

Can I get one too? I like chocolate chip!

Now if we could just get a FF IX remaster. I loved VII from the moment I saw “that” commercial on television but I had the most fun with IX.

No its not an attempt at humor at all. That engine should never have been in that car and its performance in that car should not reflect upon its overall durability. All engines have their stupid little issues and weak points, the m20s was certainly the timing belt. If the owner is stupid then sure, it’ll break and…

Nah its clearly the m20B25.

Damnit Westbrook you literally made me misty up a little bit with fond BMW memories.

Lordy I thought it said e28 M5 for a moment and about went into heart palpitations.

I know when the jackass gang member wiped out my first XR in the late ‘90s one of the first things the fire department did was wrench open my hood enough to cut the battery cables. I think it largely depends on who has made it to the scene and what equipment/policy they have in place regarding such things.

Who wants to start a betting pool? Which economic loan system is going to crash and burn first (if ever)? Car loans or school loans?

Will that be just under $5000 extra on this loan?

Thanks, I’ll put it on my list of cams to look over. The profile on this one is pretty nice and the model line has some features I like. Pretty cool stuff.

Hey thanks for the good words and the heads-up on the prices. I’ve been on and off looking at them after some jackass spun my sister’s car out last fall before leaving the scene. Police pretty much shrugged and said he’s likely already halfway to Topeka when they got to us. I figured I’d either install it myself or…

Nope, rarely if ever drive on I-70 which seems to be the choice if you either need to get across the state quickly or have no sense of adventure to get off the exceedingly well trodden path. Also, hey the billboard industry has to get its money somewhere.

I live west of Topeka and south of Louisburg nor was I ever talking about social/racial whatevers on the car enthusiast POV forums.

Heck man just driving near KSU campus this last year almost has me convinced to buy a dashcam. Between the pedestrians who think brakes can magically break the laws of physics and people running stop lights, its a scary world out here.
