I always like the classic VW Golf Ball shift knob. It's just right, and now iconic.

Well, all manufacturers are on the business of making cars that last five years nowadays. It's called Planned Obsolescence and it's a design feature of modern cars, and no I don't like it either, but it' a reality of today. You can get any car that is old and made before electronics were crammed inside cars and they…

Sure, I have owned an XJ, a TJ that was an offroad beast, and a highly capable Patriot with the Off Road package. Jeep can make other vehicles other than Cherokees and Wranglers without diluting the brand.

Some people just don't like progress.

Years ago while stationed in Korea we had a nice treat from one of our mountain biking partners. He was an air traffic controller stationed in Osan Air Base, and on this day we were riding some hills east of the air base.

So when are the extreme right wingers going to start rallying against the union for helping Ford keep those jobs open?

That was my exact same thought. Why?

Funny how the Constitution doesn't mention you have to register cars, but no one has a problem with it (as they shouldn't!)

The problem is pilot training, especially in the US, is exponentially more advanced than driver's training. We hand out driver's licenses like it was candy: not so much for pilots. You can bet that most "drivers" of autonomous cars will just doze off or read a book when being driven around by the car. That's the whole…

Damn that's pretty.

That is one tacky car.

You were driving a Saab after all. College girls love Saabs.

When I was young and reckless I almost lost my driver's license thanks to a fast Volkswagen: a Scirocco 16v. I was one point away from riding the bus. I lived in Miami, which is a terrible city to be relying on the bus.
