That was a great one. Plus, Matt LeBlanc basically reprized his roll as traveler Joey, which I got a real kick out of.

With a name like that he’s obligated to do an episode in a converted old drift Porsche and call it “Little Bastard.” 

Concussions.

I think he’s legitimately wired differently than normal people. A clue to this is he has horrible night terrors where he’ll wake up screaming, sweating, etc. It’s like all of the scary/dangerous stuff he did all day without any regard for his own safety comes rushing back to him hours later or something. How else do…

And no mention of his London trip with Matt LeBlanc because Hoonigans didn’t produce it?

Sad thing is that that residual is probably accurate. I’m sure Jag wishes that weren’t the case.

It’s almost like their entire profits are based on the margins. Which they are.

My boss never does this, but he said I can knock $50 off the Tru-Coat.

I’m not locked in here with you...

At 0% the only reason to make more than the minimum payment, or pay early, is to simplify your budget. Financially you can hold on to that extea money and make interest off it if you can keep it in your account. Then pay off the car if/when you want to get rid of it.

I dumped a hand-me-down 07 Impala too early. In retrospect, I should have lived with the fake wood and mouse fur for another couple of years.  

I don’t think David can get close to a rust dissolver. I’ve already posted how never-sieze turns me into the TIn Man, Rust dissolver would turn David into the Wicked Witch.

An engineering manager I long ago worked for hypothesized there is actually only one tablespoon of neverseize in the whole world.  I just keeps getting spread around thinner and thinner.  

“Excited” to go to space

You'd probably have a harder time finding an '06 Trailblazer in Detroit that *isn't* being driven around with a bunch of unrepaired damage.

Feels great for five minutes. Utter agony after two hours due to lack of support. BTDT. I’m convinced elderly Americans of the ‘70s were shaped differently. Or more likely, they had simply never been in a car with actually GOOD seats.

A throw pillow? You gotta be shittin' me.

As someone who works on cars for a living, I’ve sat in literally hundreds of cars of all makes and models.

Back in the 1960s, there was at least one magazine article which reported that Saab technical folks pushed their ace rally driver, Erik Carlsson, backwards into a snow bank and used the impression he left in the snow to build a custom seat for him. It was reported that Carlsson found this custom seat to be very…

The best.
