How much more black could they have been? None, none more black.

Ms. Swift, I have a Ms. Thunberg on line 1. If she can’t speak to you on the phone she is planning to sail the Atlantic, ride a horse and walk to your last date about three months from now. Could be sooner if AOC can get a solar panel for the roof of her Tesla in time to loan it.

I snorted.  Also the best part is the woman filming saying “HE’S GONNA GO THROUGH THE TRUNK!!”  You can hear the guy say “what did I just do” (at least I think it’s him and not the guy in the videoing car), and occasionally, each of us has to be the guy providing the comic relief, unless you’re Daniel Craig or someone…

The Echo is small and flimsy, though, every time I see one I think, as I do with the Yaris or a Smart car (sorry Mercedes Streeter), why would you risk death in that when you could have something more substantial for probably the same money, a model year or two older? At least the Smart cars have a certain quirky…

2005 Toyota Echo? Not only would I not feel safer than being in your car, I’d probably WANT to have someone end my misery if I had one. Get some new brakes, willya? Who knows who you might roll into next time, could be me. But everyone knows the biggest risk to your car is passing by a gas station relatively closely,…

Easy there Anakin, we like Elizabeth.

African horses or European horses?

It’s gorgeous and powerful, not every car has to be leading us by the nose to the electric future.  I don’t get those blue seats though, they don’t go with the car. And why does the material go up over the transmission? It looks like a bench seat for a tiny passenger.  Manuel Shiftgate would sit nicely there, but I…

Let’s see, the song came out in 1987 and was popular then, when you were in high school, meaning you could have been at the least around 14 years old so born in 1973, yet you didn’t graduate until 2016 and are now age 24. So you had to have been deep-frozen and not aging, or perhaps on a time-warping space journey,…

The article and recent similar slide-articles or pseudo slide articles are unreadable on my phone as the endless ads and refreshing of the videos just crashes the page. Can’t really try your trick on the phone, and on my laptop it’s just the usual annoyance and I can click the “list slides” and identify which ones I…

I do make the rules, and you are incorrect.

I was down in Monterey and had time to go Saturday and was completely, utterly unaware that this was happening, despite me being in the target audience for this type of thing. I think the only constructive notice I had was from the Corkscrew newsletter from Laguna Seca that went out last Thursday, hardly enough time…

Actually, this is how we want to make cars.

With fully automated driving or self-driving or whatever we want to call it (are cars really “selves”?), the issue isn’t just “getting it right” as far as convenience or not hitting people. There are questions about what this will do to all of us as we’re deprived (willingly or, in the case of some of us, as they pry…

On my screen the passenger side picture seems to show a lot of dull paint, as from wax or some caustic fluid on the door / fender. That’s not all shadows and reflection as the reflection is broken up by it, and that pic was probably chosen because it hides the issue somewhat. Also there are no pictures of the rear…

Username checks out. 

Burning up his fuse up there alone—oh you said Elon. Never mind. Wrong Rocket Man.  Though I imagine Elton is much more fun to hang out with than Elon.

The East End Boys are just trying to entice West End Girls to their deadend world.

I hope that’s the case, but my memory is from a post / letter from the owner himself, who expressed his shock and as of the writing at least had not been disabused of the idea that his car was wrecked. Also, it never occurred to me that the movie could be abbreviated TWINE. I also think the Miura that went down the…

Well, if ABS is engaging yes you are braking late, but that’s the point, it’s for a panic maneuver. Since most of us can’t manage “minimum braking distance @ impending lockup” (which the car magazines used to have in their stats, done by professional testers), it’s much better to just mat the pedal and let the…
