Well it’s like the MK7, but the exterior design language is watered down and the front lines don’t follow each other. The side character line is gone, which makes the car far more anonymous and blobby. The headlights are pulled down incredibly low (wondering if there was some regulations pulling it down), which has…

The infotainment on my just out of warranty (2 days!!) 2015 Audi A3 went out and the dealer wanted $4,000 to replace the MMI unit. No, they would not code a salvaged unit from another vehicle to my car. I guess it has some VIN locked copy protection. So, I got rid of the car and will never own a vehicle that has a…

It’s like the real coronavirus is the Lexus grille and it’s highly contagious. 

You’ve written a blog that basically endorses his “plan” by listing all the proposals without any analysis whatsoever. Anybody could get this information straight from Bernie’s web site, so why did you go to the effort to duplicate it?..well, because you’re trying to “spread the word” about how he will accomplish all…

You’re as delusional as he is. First medicare is not free. I paid into it for over 50 years and I still pay monthly premiums. I worked for it and I paid into it. I worked 3 jobs going thru college. I saved for my retirement and invested wisely. Now you want to tax capital gains and stock trades.

To be fair car sales in an intimidating job. You will lose a lot of sales to make one and there aren’t many people that are equipped to deal with all the failure that leads to success. Its also a very learned skill that could take years to get proficient in.

Projection is a helluva drug.

4th Gear: Here are some other horrifying potential Nissan headlines: “Nissan board to remain in place for next five years,” “Nissan releases plans to update Z by 2023, Frontier by 2025, Altima by 2027,” “Leaked spy shots show GTR to have SVT only, all cars to be SVT only by 2021,” “In cost-saving move, Nissan to offer…

Neutral: The EV credit is about the only thing enticing me to consider EVs, but the lack of EVs on dealer lots in most of the country makes it a non-starter.

Fishermen, like gearheads, go through 3 stages:

It was too late to call 9-1-1

The Stradair may be the coolest Berliet product built - kinda hoping one makes it into the film.

missed one:  my guess is this is a Peugeot PX-50

What the duce? Why is there a broiler oven in the front of the Vespa 400? Is that where you caramelize your crème brûlée? Or is it for toasting your bruschetta?

“but there’s no rust...”

I’m guessing this but more rusty

Not sure how true it is, but I was once told that the Porsche 996 used a similar system where the coolant was only circulated through the heads and not the block. That’s why the 996 still has an oil capacity of ~12 quarts and a change quantity of ~9 quarts in spite of the then-new water cooling system.

What a stupid remark....

“...and get very nervous even thinking about daily driving it into Manhattan.”

Back in 2002/3 I traded in my Acura TL-S (made me realize I didn’t like trunks, went too fast too effortlessly) for a Nissan Xterra in basically a straight-up key swap.

Then a few years after that, when gas prices exploded in 2005, I traded the Xterra for a 2002 Mazda Protege5 straight-up.

Loved both of them. The…
