This is more an issue of expectations than anything else. People new to campers and RVs expect what they see on instagram, but in reality most are just the cheapest and lightest construction on a common chassis.

People bitch about the plastic fender extension. Subaru “don’t worry it looks fine”. Then shows black car to completely hide the terrible plastic junk attached to the car.

Have others had issues with transfer case chains not working? I appreciate having something bigger, but is there a real world advantage here or does this just add weight and cost MPG? Based on the current truck Toyota wants to suck the planet dry of fuel ASAP. When I looked at trucks the Toyota and Ford were pretty…

Modern truck tailgates are a god dam mess. They are too high off the ground so they have to incorporate some old guy tools to get access, but then those things are so dam heavy that they are cumbersome to open or close. So they make them powered, which add more weight.

I had an early 2000's Hyundai Accent, truly terrible car. BUT they built it to be easy to fix and I always thought it was a cool feature that the door card could be popped off really easy.  Why is that a feature? Because the window liked to jump the track and get stuck down.  Solution? Pop the door card bump the…

There is one in my town that delivers for Pizza Hut, car looks awesome with a little pizza hat on it :) 

I will start this by saying I live in Helena Montana.

Growing up my dad had Cadillacs and we loved the comfortable mile munching abilities. Then they started trying to be sporty and my dad started driving Hyundais of all things, mainly because they made cars with soft suspension.  My dad rode in my F150 Lariat and commented that it felt like his old Caddys.  It is a big…

This is a joke, the following comment is sarcastic.

Christian Horner is mentioned for the shade he threw, but noting about Toto being an equal D-bag about RB releasing Albon?

It is one thing to be a good boy in a lesser car, it is a whole different thing if you are actually faster on track. IF (big if) Lewis has a bad start next year, lets say a Red Bull crashes into him then an engine blows. If George has a big points lead will he be willing to let Lewis pass him?

But Mercedes has a long history of making very comfortable luxury cars? (sarcasm) 

That’s what I was talking about when I said worst possible time for this to happen. Montana is similar in how the seasons are shifting before our eyes. Here it has been the elimination of spring and fall. We have winter and summer now. Where there used to be months of transition we now go from snow to heat amazingly…

Part of the issue is that historically humans didn’t stop those fires and they burned on a fairly regular schedule that managed the wilderness. Today we are seeing the impact of human mis-management that created forests with more fuel at the exact time where that is most dangerous.

I wonder if they will replace the cables for the lifts. That heat can’t be good for them and I can only imagine the issues they will have with landslides next spring.

Disappointing, but exactly what I expect from the FIA.  The lack of planning is a head scratcher.  The lack of ability to read a weather radar is also highly questionable.  

Yep, I did similar with a Miata. Nice garage queen turned into a track rat over a decade. It went from a fun car to drive to work and autoX to a car that only really worked on track. Would 100% do it all over again :) Ohh wait I am doing it again almost forgot.

The C5 Z06 might be the most underrated car ever. Nothing that cheap is that fast around a track. It wasn’t designed to be of art it was designed to go fast and be cheap to build.

Levar Burton does seem like the perfect person, BUT...
