Hey now, they don’t just give them away over here. You gotta go pick them up.

My foreign exchange student told me that getting a license in Germany is an expensive pain in the ass, so this is pretty neat.

G&M or Timbuktu in Hanover.

My best/worst car is my E46. I fucking hate all the little stupid things that break, or the A and B pillar trim fabric that is always peeling off regardless of how new it is or how much modge podge you spray it with. I hate the RTAB preloading and cooling system refreshing. But even after all these headaches that are…

2-valve, pushrod, cam-in-block American goodness. Fantastic.

Pull up those torque figures for each engine as well - that’s why the 4.2L was great. Hell, the VQ37VHR still makes less torque than a decade-old 4.2L.

Damn near every high performance V8 from GM uses two valves per cylinder still. Ford had the Triton engines with three valves as well.

I mean, the AMC 4.0L did pretty good for being older than dirt and still kicking the competitions’ collective asses when it was released in the Cherokee.

I can’t wait for the new owner to take this for emission testing and have a CARB cop look at the engine, then the VIN, then back at the engine, and then the owner watches helplessly as the cop scribbles furiously on a pad while his pants grow ever tighter.

Minus the area code, my phone number is the same as a large airport’s non-emergency police line, and the area code is very easy to transpose to get my exact number. Of the multiple calls I’ve received looking for lost bags or flight information, I did receive one voicemail where a father stated he believed his…

Blasphemer! Jeep blasphemer!

Look if I can’t prove my superiority over some anonymous person on the internet then I’m no better than those Deadspin commenters.

It’s not though. It’s on Foxtrot Alpha

Every single new Jeep is worse than the old Jeep which is amazing but still worse than the even older Jeep. It’s a vicious cycle that ends with someone crying into a beer about American Bantam.

When I say serviceable life limit I’m referencing the mileage determined by each manufacturer for their vehicles. BMW I think is still 100,000 miles, and I would have assumed Volvo was as well. But even purchased at 75,000 miles, the car is at 115,000 miles and needed $17,000 in repairs. I would say that’s not good…

You purchased a used vehicle past the serviceable life limit, so a warranty makes sense. However, purchasing a new vehicle with an extended warranty or service agreement when typical car buyers don’t own their vehicles long enough to complete the warranty or service term does not make sense.

Jeeps are leaky expensive money pits that are amazing in every facet. You’re god damn right you want one.

The XJ was a Wrangler for people that wanted a decent daily driver. I miss mine.

The first time I started my Willys, the header paint burned off because I didn’t buy high-temp paint because I’m an idiot, and the garage turned black with smoke.

THE JL WRANGLER IS AN ABOMINATION AND NOT AS GOOD AS THE JK WHICH WAS AN ABOMINATION AND WAS NOT AS GOOD AS THE TJ WHICH WAS AN ABOMINATION AND NOT AS GOOD AS THE YJ WHICH WAS JUST WRONG AND NOT AS GOOD AS THE CJ7 WHICH WAS NOT AS GOOD AND HAD BIGGER DOOR OPENINGS THAN THE CJ5 WHICH WAS TERRIBLE AND NOT AS RELIABLE…
