How is it objectionable to say, “I made this thing. I own it. You don’t get to use my thing to make money without my permission,”? I don’t see a lot of shade being thrown on folks that license, just saying the that the Beastie Boys don’t.

Same with custom paint jobs, crazy aftermarket rims, wild stereo and entertainment systems, etc. If you find the exact right buyer who thinks your taste in cars is peeeerfect, you’ve just wrecked your car’s value. I’ve explained this to people so many times that I can probably do this in my sleep.

Ladder frames are already prone to deformation thanks to the structure. Diamond conditions are vastly more likely, specifically in offset crashes. Er, a diamond condition is where one rail is back farther than the other across the length of the frame, turning the rectangular shape in more of a trapezoid or diamond.…

All you really need to know here is summed up in the phrase, “rocket-powered Lincoln Continental.”

The action is considered to be a firearm itself from the point of view of the law. In the case of your typical weapon, some single piece, usually the action, is the important bit with the important serial number on it. That is the part that the government cares about and is the part where you have to fill out…

This. I’ve never had it take that long to bring a woman to orgasm with cunnilingus. Not that I have a huge sampling to pull this data from, but the longest it’s taken was probably around ten minutes, and, per the woman in question, was more because of her body image issues and inability to communicate when she wanted…

As much as I like this article, the last time I saw a white C4 convertible in this condition, and I mean that quite literally, it had a stupendous amount of blood on the rear deck and in the interior.

Yup, my immediate thought was, “2+2? Ugh, why?” But, hey, cheaper.

A friend of mine is in Houston now helping to handle the staggering amount of flood claims. He said he’s lucky if he’s getting four hours of sleep a night because there’s so much to do.

“Airbus A330 Flies For 25 Minutes Over The Pacific With Both Engines Out”

Yep, driving around near Oceana while take-offs are happening is an education. I can hear my car windows whining from the vibration.

As a 240 wagon owner, I must concur. There is indeed something about that car that obviates its’ sundry numbers.

I think if you can pull it off, it rocks. I mean, c’mon, who’s going to call Harrison Ford a douche for wearing a fedora, right? It’s the mung beans like the guy with the trilby in the photo that wear hats badly. I have a buddy that does the same. He a pasty white, overweight, bald* ginger with a goatee that wears…

I bought one decades ago because of a liking for snazzy looking male leads on old films (and, yes, libertarian back then). Then I put it on and realized immediately how douchey it looked. Never wore it again. These days I’m waiting for the flat cap I wear during cold months to be declared the headwear of dickbags.…

I saw it a year later. Some guy bought it from the junkyard and put it back on the road. A blind monkey with a cheese grater could’ve done better bodywork on the quarter, but it was kind of cool to see the car driving again.

Well, mine is not slow either, I just won’t call it ‘fast’ in a place like this. As the moment, it vibrates at highway speeds and ticks me off, but I just rebuilt the entire front end and did some work to the turbo, and haven’t gotten it aligned just yet. I’m putting in subframe bushing inserts, some poly motor…

Volvo s are pretty common hereabouts, as there used to be a Volvo/White factory. This meant lots of people with employee discount, so lots of older volvos. Still, old volvo people tend to stick together.

Same as most of my cars - someone plowed into it. T-boned and totaled.

*blink* Wow. This makes me wish I had my 71 still.

My back, shoulders, and forearms were all wrecked the next day, but, man, right after I stood up, I probably could’ve rolled the jeep upright single-handed from all the adrenaline in me. I felt great. I was totally straight too until everybody left and I was waiting on the trooper. Then my hands started to shake a bit.
