I watch Brain Games too.

No kidding. In that tooth-brushing pic above, you can see the dreadlocks beginning to form.

And EuroCar drivers with the rear fogs on.

Modern cars also have the little green “headlights on” indicator. I’ve trained myself to look at that instead of the IP illumination.

No A/C. Registered in Arizona. Wow.

Once MOVs take a couple of hits, they fail on the next one by burning up, at which point they are no longer effective. I worked in an office heated by big heat pumps that sent surges into the power as they cycled on and off, and we were continually replacing burned up MOV surge protectors.

Don’t you have an eraser shield?

No, just happened to read that one a couple of weeks ago and remember it.

At least if you walk, you are burning 50 or 60 calories.

Thanks. I wish I knew this a couple of months ago, before I sold my Civic because of the bad battery.

Did you replace that hybrid battery yet?

Water injection for free!

Around town, the manual was fine because the gearing was real short.

Louis CK would have been funnier.

I had one when my kids were small and I’ll tell you why. (1) Despite the roomy back seat, there are actually only two seatbelts, so you can’t cram a third kid back there. (2) The suicide doors are terrible in a parking lot, garage, or other close quarters because both doors have to be open at the same time, and then…

You will love your van when a kid has some issue (unbuckled belt, dropped sippy cup, sibling fight) and it’s pouring rain outside. You just unbuckle and walk down the center aisle to deal with it.

This is a nice exercise in numerical analysis and data visualization, and I’m sure they got an A on it, but it doesn’t have too much relevance for the real world. They’re assuming the steak is made entirely of water and it’s held against a constant temperature surface. Who cooks a steak like that?

As bad as these cars are, I’m pretty sure they have lower tailpipe emissions than a 1969 Dodge Charger.
