TIL what tags are really good for.

What about “front-engine axle-forward?”

Look under the “Bad Hombre” trim level.

I finally settled on a mount that’s good enough for now, but over-engineering the solution is really tempting. Enter... the seat bolt mount. You can get versions of these capable of holding tablets.

Bubble-hatch Capri is best Capri.

Looks like the following distance of the semi to the car in front of it was about 1/3 of a second before the crash starts. I’m not saying I know how things got that way, but you can clearly see the truck closing on the car before things go sideways.

Smells like a way of “banning” someone who they are hoping may be unwilling or unable to pay the fine. No pay, no race.

Yeah, that hood and right-front fender fit are worrisome. Also $27K and they could only be bothered to post four pics. CP.

Challenge accepted. When I find the cash.

I stand with Tom, for that budget get the GTI with the tune. It’s on my shopping list for the next round.

And this is why we have and sometimes need vast expanses of smooth plastic covering everything under the hood.

Just give us a new Mazdaspeed 6 worthy of the name and it can be like this never happened.

Saving the world by getting good gas mileage...

If only we had seen the signs.

Surprised to see no mention of regenerative braking systems replacing the Jake brake to add a little range - or is that already figured into existing estimates?

In some cases, turning on the AC will trigger the aux fan, cooling the engine down.
