I went to a quick-change oil place in Florida once. They took the old oil out, but made the oil change quick by neglecting to put any new oil in. I drove it somewhere between 50 and 10o feet before I noticed and went back. In addition to getting them to put the oil in, I got them to give me a letter saying they forgot…

A mechanic near my office rebuilt the carb on my 79 Monte Carlo. I paid him. It didn’t run right. I took it back several times, and it still didn’t run right. I took it to the Chevy dealer, who rebuilt the carb again and informed me in writing that the first guy had left out some parts. I paid the dealer too.

The head unit in my car has more functions than any of them did 25 years ago, but I’d like to go back to buttons for changing radio stations, and selecting sources on the infotainment systems.  Why?  Because now I have to take my eyes off the road to change those things.

More proof (as if any was needed) that Tesla should really come up with a different name for that feature.

The older you get, the older both old and young get, and the more stuff you have to explain to adults.  And when you reach a certain age, all prices become ridiculous.

I’m looking forward to the day when I can log on to Amazon, order a new car, have Honey tell me if it’s the best price, and because I’m a Prime member, have it show up at my house in two days. That’s the day I’ll take advantage of another Amazon feature. I’ll subscribe to new cars and have one delivered every few…

With respect to David Tracy’s suggestions, I believe Aaron Judge, not Derek Jeter, is the biggest yank this world has ever seen.

I feel for you. I probably don’t need a table saw, or a 12-inch compound miter saw either.  But I do have 11 cast iron radiators in my house, so I’m using self-built radiator covers to convince my wife it’s okay.

$6K is a lot for four tons of FE2O3.

I vote for jelly beans, but only the black ones. I’m also frankly astonished at the number of states where boiled eggs or peeps have primacy.

I don’t love my wife’ s sister, and she isn’t fat.  She talks all the time.  And, since she does that, she can’t possibly listen to me talking all the time.

I own a Nissan Frontier 4 cyl. I bought it because what I haul is bulky, but not heavy, and the 6 uses premium fuel. If I lived someplace hilly, or mountainous, this truck would be under-powered and I would have sprung for the 6.

This is a question that could have been answered in one word.

what this country really needs is bulletproof thoughts and prayers.

I don’t think you can  grant a Darwin award to that many people for the same thing, but you you can’t, the rules should be changed.

I don’t take long car trips very often,  but I do take them.  I’ve been known to do a thousand miles a day.  Is this even technologically possible at this time?  Seems to me if you’re driving multiples of 300 miles a day, the stops are too long for consumers to sign on the bottom line.

Is it brown?  Is it a stick?  No dice!

No problem with car shows.  Hope vaccines for COVID bring back show and shines in the area where I live.  Serious question with respect to the pictures in this article:  I was under the impression that protruding spinners were illegal on cars by federal safety standards, and have been illegal for decades.

Having a standard name for them would be helpful. Many years ago, in the middle of the night, I was booming through Rhode Island at a good rate of speed when I saw a sign that said, “Rotary ahead.” I thought it was too early in the morning for a service club to meet, and then I discovered, much to my chagrin that…

If you need something to criticize about the show--her watercolors.  Otherwise, I like it.
