Paint that has crushed glass in it. I loved the Tuxedo Black on my Fusion, when it was clean and in the light you could see blues, reds, yellows, etc. in the paint. Much nicer than standard metallic.

Nissan Kicks - same reasons as the Ford EcoSport, but even worse and still being produced.

Race with Kenny Wallace driving experience; took two years to redeem thanks to Covid, but when I finally did this year it was awesome.

No 80's Toyota Pickup? No power, but basically impossible to stall. My neighbor taught me on his and the only time I stalled a car was when I first started the truck.

The UMP Modified that I drove at a dirty track experience. Fun, fast, and loose. I had a smile on my face the whole time and for the rest of the day, it’s pretty great what 10 laps will do. I got a little bit sideways, which for a first time was enough to want to do it again.

Nissan Kicks - horrible ergonomics, horrible gas mileage, horrible transmission and no power. I’d rather drive any other vehicle made after they standardized the controls of a car.

Squareback wagons and SUV/CUV so many of them are designed so the rear hatch is only as usable as a typical trunk if you're lucky. In that sense I understand why people moved away from wagons to SUV/CUVs because they used to be usable but again now are nearly unusable like the last remaining wagons.

You got lucky with that. My wife’s Malibu did the same crap and NOTHING worked to make it start 100% of the time. I even added a security bypass module, but that only worked about 80% of the time. Before the bypass it was lucky to start 20% of the time.

Will definitely recommend the Palisade/Telluride siblings. My wife has a Palisade and I don’t mind going back and forth between driving it and my Accord. We get around 22-24mpg typically in the Palisade which is awesome for a large comfortable vehicle.

My parents’ 94 Trooper. Loved that thing and would buy one if I found a nice example. We had the rear facing jump seat which my sister and I thought was the coolest thing ever.

Don’t travel shortly before the holiday and leave shortly after the holiday. My parents go down to my sister’s for Thanksgiving and always travel a week beforehand. My sister comes up to my parents and I for Christmas and again travels about a week in advance. They never have issues traveling and typically leave 2-3…

I was right! As soon as I tried the zero-sugar I was instantly hit with warhead or possibly toxic waste.

Had that with a Honda and Hyundai dealership. Neither even pushed for extras once I said not interested before their pitches.

Ford Dealership in 2013/2014 that had a really nice looking Pinto wagon with wood trim and houndstooth interior. Had I not needed a daily driver my mom wanted to give me some money towards it to have as a second car. I believe it was this exact one: https://www.mecum.com/lots/PA0819-378904/1974-ford-pinto-station-wagon…

I have another guilty pleasure car besides the Bricklin SV1 and that’s the Buick Reatta. I loved my ‘88, wish I still had it. Awesome green glow of the CRT touchscreen, seatbelts on the the rear shelf (sorry seats for insurance reasons). Mine was also turbo’d by a previous owner and they set it up like Volvo did for…

Bricklin SV-1.

AC/Shelby Cobra - doesn’t matter if it’s an original, continuation, or a well done kit. Got to drive one of these just one the street and it was so much fun.

As long as I can remember and my parents can remember I was into cars. I always had toy cars (micro machines were the best) and transformers (and the cheap knockoffs). Once I graduated from Curious George and X-Men comics I was reading books about cars. I was always into racing games too starting on the Atari and NES…

Maryland’s Giant-Landover is essentially the same as Giant-Carlisle, just one is Union and the other isn’t. I’m also taking it for PA they are rightfully counting Martin’s stores as Giant as well.

I have 2 dream project cars:
