As a person who dailies an e36 M3 Coupe, I agree.

My parents bought a 97 Grand Cherokee Limited brand new, had it for 20 years.  They replaced it with an 18 Grand Cherokee Limited in basically the same color.  We all agree the 97 was our favorite.  Felt more like a truck, was easier to drive and see out of, controls made sense, and was much better looking.  Also the…

Back in 2001 my parents sold their 86 W126 Benz 420SEL to a guy in the local paper for $1000. It was rusty and would no longer pass PA inspection. He claimed that he was going to drive it to Florida then ship it to South America where it would be used as a taxi.

Though I agree that independent suspension provides superior handling, I’m impressed with what Jeep managed to do with theirs. I have a 1990 Jeep Comanche Eliminator, 4x4, it handles darn well. You have to be pushing it way beyond what any sane person would do with a pickup truck to make the front or rear end get out…

My 99 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight randomly has a factory optional block heater.  It is a nice feature when the weather is predicted to be super cold.

Sealed up the wind leaks in the quarter vent windows in my Jeep Comanche.  So much quieter when traveling over 25mph.  A quiet cabin is worth so much.

The top of the hood is the most ugly part, it looks like a cartoon person with an absurdly exaggerated forehead.  That and the rest of it just looks like a gigantic minivan.  It has very little class, unlike the previous generation Grand wagoneer which would look right fine pulling up to the valet at a fancy hotel.

A few months ago I bought an almost clean 250k mile 1990 Comanche Eliminator with a 5 speed manual and 4x4 with the 4.0L for $9800. It also needed a tune up. The tune up was easy, tighten all the manifold bolts, wich is a common issue on these engines, and then do basic servicing of ignition, injectors and grounds.…

Im not typically in the Miata is always the answer boat, I completely agree this time.  Off road trim Miata would be awesome.  

The one time I found AAA super useful was when I blew up the engine in my Mini on the Ohio turnpike. After trying for an hour to contact various towing companies, all I had learned is that only one company had the contract to tow off of the Ohio turnpike.  None of those companies I called would tell me who had that…

For me it is infotainment systems that crash.  My parents 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee has had a buggy infotainment system since mile 1, it's very frustrating.  It will fail to boot properly and major systems like HVAC and radio will just be stuck at whatever the setting was when it was last parked.  Restarting the…

Traction control is frustrating in the snow. It is usually programed to try to keep the vehicle moving in the direction you are inputting. To do this in they cut power to regain control in a skid. The issue is you will loose all your momentum and get stuck. Driving in the snow is all about momentum management, have…

I’ve driven an AW11 MR2, they cruise very nicely, but they aren't taking lots of items with you and you can't get away from the sun in one.

As a person that also likes small sporty cars and daily drives them all the time, I recently purchased the perfect small to mid sized truck. I needed a truck after buying some property.

I’ve driven a Samuari extensively, your have to be really, really jerking around to get one to flip. They are far more stable than they look. Remember, they aren’t fast, like 65mph is the end of the world. They are great around town vehicles or beach cars. I’ve off roaded one, and was blown away at the capability.

Im definitely contributing to the average age of vehicles getting older. Between my brother and I we have 4 road worthy vehicles, a 99 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight, a 99 BMW M3, a 90 Jeep Comanche and a 62 Austin Healey Sprite. All are driven regularly and are as reliable if not more so than the 18 Jeep Grand Cherokee my…

My grandparents were Oldsmobile people, I still have their last one 1999 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight.

Having had an e38 in the family for the last 21 years straight, this one looks phenomenal.  The V12s are bullet proof compared to the V8s.  Contrary to popular belief, the M73 V12 is a simple engine that doesn't have pesky issues like the M62 V8.  There are no plastic timing chain guides to worry about, variable valve…

Me too. I guarantee I will order one if I can get an electric two door with a manual transmission.  I really, really enjoy driving stick shift and it's the only thing keeping me from buying an electric vehicle.

This car is a conventional 5 speed auto, not a 6 speed SMG. The SMG transmission debuted on the American M3 in the e46 generation.
