Camrys aren’t disrespected because of the car. It’s because of the drivers.

If I recall correctly, a modern Camry TRD outperforms a 1967 Mustang GT in every metric. Acceleration, handling, grip, braking, passenger and luggage capacity.

You can talk about soul or style, but it gets a bit uncomfortable when a family mover has more moves and muscle than a muscle car.

Relax. If it was going to be overweight, they would have named it 400ZX instead.

A vent fan doesn’t even need a moonroof to run. The blower fans as part of the regular HVAC are electric. Just have them turn on in outside air mode while parked if the interior temp goes over, idk, 85 degrees. And turn off if battery level drops too far.

It’s not just about saving money on child seats. I can’t count the number of times I had a hurried call to pick up an extra kid from school, or even just offering a ride to someone walking alongside the road.

But the sticking point has been that I didn’t have a car seat available. I do carry a tiny booster now, and for

I live near water and would love a boat, but am interested only in Zodiac-type boats for the reasons you listed. I like the idea of a boat that I can deflate, haul easily, and store in my garage.

Open air driving experience, without needing to learn motorcycle skills beyond the mandatory safety class and test. Fun fact: In NYS, if you take your motorcycle license exam on a trike, your license will be valid only for trikes.

Exactly. You can go to the annual national Pontiac 6000 meetup and both of the other guys will be impressed with the swap. No one else will stay awake through the description.

Same for Sienna, Sonata, Civic. I’m actually surprised at the implication that a lot of cabin air filters aren’t easy to replace.

It looks like Dr. Seuss designed it for Cruella de Vil.

Great to see GRM out in the wild. They deserve recognition.

Counterpoint - power is too accessible. When a new Camry comes with 200 or 300 ponies and a 0-60 around the same as a ‘67 Mustang GT - heck, when a Sienna out-corners that GT - we end up with a lot of clueless carpoolers flinging around what was once a rare feat of performative physics, now with little barrier to

An 04-06 GTO isn’t happening inside a $10K budget, unless it was crashed or flooded.

The company that worked with Cirrus on that parachute system also refits other planes with their rocket-launched parachutes if you want.

It takes up space and weight, and I would still get one if I could afford an airplane or lessons or a parachute.

Most of those racist pieces of shit were not in positions of power and influence where they could shape policy and affect attitudes towards those they despised.
Phil was.

Tesla El Camino isn’t appealing imo. Looks like it was built entirely by a marketing team playing buzzword bingo who gave up halfway through and chopped the back off a Murano.
Pity they didn’t get to the interior, but at least Elantra drivers will feel nostalgic.

Just a thought, but is it possible they were dealer cars? Loaners? Something in service?
And the positive “sale” now is it finally being sold off as used?

1. That’s not how lances work. 2. That’s not how cover or concealment work. 3. That’s not how IG droids... You know what? I couldn’t suspend disbelief to watch this series. I love me some Samurai Jack but this stuff was just random.

Looks like a used condom.

I’m fully expecting a breakdown because A. it’s survived a quarter-million miles but now you’re going to be towing. And B: when cars develop expensive problems, they get sold. And this one was just sold.

Maybe your next purchase should be an old flatbed tow truck.
