You’ll laugh but I have the perfect car for you. Buy an old C4 Corvette and put snow tires on it. Seriously. I did that for two winters in Nebraska a long time ago. I had bought an old, high mileage, awful-condition ‘86 Corvette to turn into a race car. Before I had the money to begin, I put a set of Blizzaks on it…

Why the hell does this overly heavy bike have only a single disc up front? And where’s the ABS for that matter?

A few millennia ago when I was a kid, my parents used an early 1970’s (hint — it was also the early 1970’s) Buick or Oldsmobile wagon, with a big-block V8, to tow our Avion travel trailer. Once those cars were no longer available, my dad switched to a 3/4-ton Suburban with the 454.

I’m with Jason on this. BUT, also because I’m hugely anti-establishment and think tolls should be illegal. Most tolls are instituted as temporary but are later made permanent. So anytime you can avoid paying a toll, by all means do so.

Here’s how I see it. A merger like this could help GM tremendously if Sergio will get rid of most of GM’s executive management. GM, sadly, is run by a bunch of idiots and always has been. Their bean counters are the reason most of GM’s cars are seriously blah, or of poor quality (even though that quality is still…

Smaller vehicles can tow just fine if properly equipped and treated gently. BUT, if you overdo it and aren’t very careful, you will destroy the car. The transmissions, cooling systems, and brakes just aren’t up to the task.

I helped a friend pull a B5.9 out of an old 95-ish RAM that was rotting in a field. The motor had 600k on it but he was just going to sell it as a core. It took him I think two full days of cutting and unbolting crap, and then we pulled it out with the transmission still attached (a 5sp manual) using another friend’s…

Did that happen to specify cars/trucks or does that include motorcycles too? If not motorcycles, I wonder what the reg is for them? The only thing I know for sure (at least in California) is that they must be 9” apart.

Perhaps; but it seems the debt was sold to an agency or something. Would it still apply in that case?

I have always disliked Harleys. I doubt that will ever change. Why? It started out many years ago in my teens when some a-hole on one got all irate at me because I dared suggest he stop blocking the left lane on a multi-lane road.

I live in Oregon about an hour south of Portland. While it does have some nice roads, I’ve ridden them so many times that I’m thoroughly bored of them... asphalt or dirt. I was just thinking how today might be a nice day for a ride. Then once again I’m like... wait... WHERE? To get anywhere at all interesting means…

You have way more patience for this kind of police bullshit than I do.

Here’s a horror story for you. This isn’t every single detail; otherwise the story would be longer than your own article.

Back when cops actually helped serve and protect the public, people loved seeing them around. If these neighborhood cops will do just that, then it’s a good thing. But if it devolves into another form of revenue generation, it will end up being another case of Us against Them.

Sweet, but that’s not an ATV. It’s a UTV like a Polaris Ranger or Kawasaki Mule.

Phew! After reading the title I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’m so glad you kept it!! Otherwise, I want it!! :-P

My biggest piece of advice? Leave as much political crap out as you possibly can. The fact that Jalopnik is owned by Gizmodo is bad enough, since they seem hell-bent on shoving their political agenda down everybody’s throat. But leave politics out completely. No jabs at either side, nothing. Just keep it about what we…

If we could turn off all the nanny crap it might be a fun little car, especially once you modded up the engine to around 150-180 hp. But otherwise, for the price and economy, I’d buy a Honda Fit that I think is both faster and gets better mpg. Doesn’t turn as tight, but for me, who cares. I actually ride a motorcycle…

I’m looking forward to it! And fwiw I don’t mind seeing ATV content from time to time. :)

Yeah, Allstate can get bent. No, we don’t need any of that. What we need is better driver education and to eliminate all the profiteering laws that serve only to pad the pockets of governments and not actually do anything to increase safety on the roads.
