The bridge going to Dodge Island is 3 lanes in each direction, I’m sure they could find room to put a couple cranes in there.

They are great performers, I just think Caddy’s are fucking hideous. I HATE the stealth, all-straight-lines look, and have been waiting for them to move on, but no. Ugly AF, and I’m sorry but there has to be aesthetic appeal for me as well as performance, especially at that price point. I know looks are subjective,…

Boy, if I had a dollar for every time I found myself with a Rothko or a Picasso or an artifact from an archeological dig and no place to put it, I’d have a dollar.

It’s tacky and gaudy as fuck, so I predict they will sell extremely well in Kuwait, UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, et al.

Well, as long as it’s latex paint, ought to clean up just fine. In a way it’s an improvement. Heretical as it may be among auto journalists, I detest brown cars.

Durex Condoms, with Jesus Saves in the background. Guess they both save!

“Embiggened” does not exist, but it should. It’s my new favorite non-word.

I don’t care what they paid, I’m just happy it was Mother’s and not say, oh, I dunno, Duluth Trading?

So Mothers Polish smoothed things over, good. The whole thing had started to rub me the wrong way, my anger was waxing at an alarming rate.

Many moons ago, I took delivery of a brand new red Alfa Milano Quadrifoglio Verde, with the 3.0 V6 and the ZF tranny. I had had the car about 2-3 weeks, when I had to go to my parents house to pick up my mom to take her to get her car. I had to get to her house by driving Rickenbacker Causeway, a 5-6 mile stretch of…

Easy. I passed up a chance to buy a Audi Quattro Coupe GT, which was less than a year old at the time, and had fewer than 5k miles on it. Yes, I periodically stop and bang my head against a wall when I think about it, even 30 years later.

That blue is gorgeous, what’s it called?

Nope. I’m holding out for the King Ranch edition.

Yeah, just look at the flared rear fenders, sniff.

Or, at least do like Audi does with the Allroad, and allow buyers to specify that they are painted to match.

I have the slim apple rubberized case, and every phone I have ever owned has an Invisible Shield HD glass screen protector, those things are great. No scratches either. Just sayin’

... along with your asshole, mouth, eyes, nose, ears, and any open wounds, small cuts, abrasions you may have, large or small, etc., etc. It’s what your immune-system is for, and why they use chemicals in swimming pools. By the way, the ocean and all fresh water lakes and rivers are full of all sorts of bacteria as…

Great piece. It hit on many points for me, as I grew up in South Florida in the 60's and 70's. I remember Dave Zinn, and Craig Zinn, the Zinn name has been a fixture of auto sales down here forever, like Braman, Potamkin, Lehman, Machado, etc. Not only that, but my first car was a hand-me-down that was my grandmothers…

Except for City of Miami police, which also covers a lot of the metro area. Miami Beach and Coral Gables are also big municipal police departments. Nevertheless as a native miamian it does not surprise me in the least that the stupid asses ran out of tickets. Smh, only in my town!

Mal, monsieur, mais merci d’avoir joué
