Here’s my experience as an aircraft mechanic who graduated college in 2001. Spent 4 years and 25 grand on a degree (cheap public school) during my schooling they kept telling us there’d be a huge demand for pilots and mechanics due to retirements and wages were high. I graduated in May of 2001 and you may recall…

This is pure gold! Thank you.

I wish Mazda still made pickups....

Maybe someone with such an easily triggered intolerance for waiting in traffic shouldn’t have gotten into a profession that consists of patiently waiting and obeying traffic instructions from Air Traffic Controllers.

In 2017 I took a first date out to a night of pinball and a punk rock concert in my 2013 Prius. We were married last summer.

I don't know if it's a great car but the Subaru XT is a pretty neat forgotten car.

The Chevy Astro eliminated the blacked out areas between the windows for the last few years of its run. On the Astro I prefer the blackout treatment. I think the Beetle is ok keeping it body color but it is fun to look at the possibility of the change.

We know David. We know.

Finished collection and the unfinished collection.

For some reason I thought the 1st gen Geo Storm GSi was the pinnacle of automotive history as a 13 year old. I fantasized about owning a gray one. And to be honest, in 2020 I think it would still be kind of cool to have one as a novelty.

Politics ruined the last 40 years.

Wow, this clip dredged up some long buried memories of elementary school Saturday mornings

Fun fact, that is the same van featured on the artwork of the Pabst Can Crusher pinball game released a few years back. As I understand it, the van was owned by the artist on the game Dirty Donny. 

The Forte Koup can now rest in automotive afterlife with its fallen ancestors the 2 door Ford Tempo, and the 2 door Chevy Cavalier. It was a car 25 years too late.

I truly believe inspector gadget’s car in the animated series is a 1984/85 Celica

Every year someone at work puts up a flyer for the 100 acre wood and every year I’ve been busy until 2017. I’ve always thought rally was cool. I mean, I’ve played plenty of Gran Turismo and Dirt over the years, I’ve owned a 95 Legacy (L! Baby) so when a rally happens 2 hours from my house, I really should check it…

Minivan with AWD > any crossover ever. Thanks for the article.
