On the insurance question, you are absolutely correct to suggest collector car insurance companies like Grundy or Hagerty...but not only because they will be more knowledgeable about enthusiast and collector cars, but because they also offer ‘agreed value’ coverage. That’s where you work with them to determine an…

My mom taught me two huge things...one about cars, one about driving.

2004 MINI Cooper S, bought new off the dealer lot. It was Indi Blue with black roof and mirrors, very loaded with Nav (so a speedo on the column!), HK sound, sunroof, etc.

Rob hasn’t been too ‘in your face’ so far...Dax, kind of has. I guess he is the ‘wild one’, Rob the ‘reserved one’, and Jethro the...racing driver one.

I’d watch it...if they put out some more damned episodes! Seriously, the advertising on the different Discovery family channels is constant, and every time I check the app, it’s still the same four episodes, which I’ve already watched. 

Shocked there was no love for the Sphero BB-8 ‘bot. That thing was nifty.

“It’s better for everybody,” she said. “It’s better for the car company, it’s better for the dealer.”

That’s a good one...for me, it actually DID ‘change my life’, at least a bit. This car was so cool looking that I loved it, in spite of it not truly being a ‘real’ car. But, I had always been a car snob to that point...just being pretty wasn’t enough for a car, it had to be GOOD...so it opened my mind to cars as art…

Convertible with at least a detachable hardtop, coupe (of course), with all wheel drive, manual transmission, and a metric ton of power. So...yeah, nobody makes one, but the closest is a 911 C4s. R8, too, if someone makes an aftermarket hardtop for it. I do love my Audi S5, and would love it more if I could drop the…

This whole ‘subscription’ model for...things...just doesn’t make sense, other than the obvious money-grab (aka continual money stream to seller).

“Snoozefest”?!?!

Missing one flag is an error...missing a couple shows distraction...missing FIVE flags is incompetence. If this was baseball he’d have been busted back to AA or A ball by now, not even AAA. Anyway...

No, it’s not good...and it is definitely not funny.

1986 VW Golf...the base, base model. 1.8l and 85hp of pure Teutonic fury. And it was 10 years old, so not all of those German horses were still in the corral. Of course it only weighed about 1900lbs, so it wasn’t dog-slow, but a drag-race machine it was not.

Pretty! I had the black, which could be had with wood but I preferred the aluminum. Very crisp and clean. Just a great place to be when driving.

The Hi-Toro Joyboard. Basically, a controller for the Atari 2600 that was a little platform you stand on that works as a joystick for games like Skiing and such. They didn’t sell a lot of them. But as Hi-Toro became Amiga and they started work on their new game system, which then mutated into a full personal computer,…

Ok, so you aren’t the target market for this car...neither am I. But I know people who are. I have one friend who has a 1st-gen Tiguan and despises the new one, because it is huge and she doesn’t want anything that large. She had a CR-V previously and loved it, but loathes the design of the last few generations. She…

You can buy an entire roll of 3M vinyl wrap for $30 (and no-name brands for $20)...add an X-acto knife for $5 and you can save yourself $560+. And, rather than struggling to line up the overlay exactly straight (which you won’t), you can just drape the whole sheet of vinyl over the computer and use the X-acto to trim…

How very...NASCAR...of them.

To just gaze at, or to actually USE?
