Song refernce. Song is called "Wagon Wheel," lyric goes "So rock me mama like a wagon wheel...."

And you can always do what I've been doing, usually at work, for the last couple years...watch old CART races on YouTube. Great way to get through the off season...

I blew a toll (accidentally!) outside of Chicago in 2011 (on my way to pick up some bitchin powder coated wheels for the TBSS at the time). Completely forgot to go online and pay the toll, and was in the process of moving, and ended up not getting the notice to pay. $2.00 toll turned into $250 toll and the added bonus…

I feel like if you hire someone's IP to be a spokesperson, you know what you're getting into. They hired Ferrell to sell cars as a completely fictious character...a character that happens to be a horrible horrible human being. (That being said I absolutely love Anchorman and hope the sequel doesn't bomb.) You…

So much want. I've been lucky enough to see a lot of vehicles that are similar in provenance and importance to those, but, still. Looks fantastic. What's crazy is how much the values of microcars like the Messerschmidt (which I think I just misspelled) have shot up in the last 10ish years. That car will bring a…

I had a buddy with the last gen (only gen?) Colorado. 4 cyl, 5-spd., 2wd, extended cab short bed...thing would consistently get 30-31 on the highway without trying.

I have an odd tingly feeling when I look at the back of it. I love how its an evolution of the E-type rear end.

Well hell, had I picked up on the satire part my comments would've been full of considerably more snark and sarcasm.

Wouldn't that make it a regular cab short bed truck, just like they had on the last generation? Not really losing 30", just buying the right cab and bed configuration for your needs...unless I missed something saying it was coming only in a crew cab short bed configuration.

30"....holy hell. I don't think I'd want to tow 5,000 lbs with anything that short.

This is awesome. As someone who bailed out of work something like 8 days before the 500 this year to hang out in the garages, I give him credit. My thing is getting drivers to sign prints of shots I've taken of them on track....was 33 for 34 at Indy this year. I've had a pretty good run of getting former winners to…

Sir Jackie,

Random small world...I was actually on 136 headed to a friend's in Fisher (used to live in Danville, went to school in Chambana) when he pulled out in front of me. It definitely wasn't a concours car, but, hey, it was getting driven.

I'm going to be a bit pedantic about this...it's not necessarily a "Mack" unit, and Quad Box is definitely just a slang term for it. What it amount to is usually a primary and an auxilary transmission. Your primary trans is 4 or 5 gears, and then the auxiliary is 3-4 gears, for the sake of discussion, we'll use…

Silver and in Rantoul...

And who am I to refute third hand information from old people on old cars?

I would agree with the FF-Espada comparison. Both are "different."

Me too. It's bad.

Someone needs to share this over at automobiliac....

Fair point. In which case, I'll let the ZR1 stay.
