$17.9K for a VeeDub in drag? Are you nucking futs? CP.

Having owned an ‘84 Escort that went well over 200k (nearly) trouble free miles, yes, you should have.

My father had a Medallion... jeebus, what a shitpile!

And tow truck drivers rejoiced.

I once snapped the shifter off on a ‘79 AMC Spirit, it had a VW sourced 2.0L 4 cylinder and IIRC a Ford sourced transmission.

My father almost bought one. Almost. He ordered an ‘83 Concord wagon instead.

“In ideal meh-car fashion, the Alliance wasn’t really all that terrible.” Wrong. They were incredibly unreliable piles of crap, the biggest issue being their appetite for cylinder heads. A Yugo was the epitome of reliability in comparison.

A good friend of mine is building a ‘92 long bed Super Cab Ranger, powered by a Cummins 4BT from a step van :). Some day he might actually finish the damn thing...

Holy cow (or should I say pig), I remember that issue! My father was a subscriber to Autocar way back in the day and it was one my favorite mags as a kid.

I believe 5'10" IS the average height of an American male :) .

It never stops...

Little old Ohio is not far behind at #4 :).

I sure hope not...

Good luck with that...

A given.

Here ya go:

Brilliant description!

Tue, that was the only thing I liked about the FJ Cruiser. Hate the Little Tykes “styling”.

I have no issue with lanesplitters, I just have an issue with assholes. Which is what this guy is, a colossal gaping asshole.

Bravo, CHP!!! Panch and John would be proud!
