“Buy a little freedom, buy a Yugo”

I’m biased here and I’m sure a lot of people consider this an acquired taste, but Oldsmobile in 1968 with the marker lights between the quad headlights...

The renovated LaGuardia is a huge improvement, but I will never get over my experiences in LaGuardia before that was done. If signage existed, it led you to the wrong place. Getting from one terminal to another sometimes required going outside. Getting to a rental car? Have fun crossing a busy highway and following a…

Mitsubishi Mirage. In spite of what the name implies, you can’t just drive right through it.

1975, so... all of them.

Well, I, for one, can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been doing donuts for Tik Tok views on a public street and had a sudden craving for a Kolache.

Oldsmobile. Not just saying that because of my ‘68 4-4-2, either. Olds did a lot of crazy experimental fun throughout their life-cycle, from early aluminum engines to the Quad-4 speed record car, gimme an Oldsmobile that has no fear again.

My first memory is sitting in my father’s lap, steering his 1970 Buick Skylark convertible in the parking lot at preschool (Ok, I thought I was steering. He actually had a hand on the wheel the whole time.)

Too soon. This just happened last week. No word if my car is totaled yet, but this was a meticulously maintained 1991 Thunderbird SC with manual transmission that I had just bought two months ago. Someone was going too fast when traffic slowed to a stop and rear-ended this pristine piece of history... Thankfully I’m…

I have a lot of opinions on this and I’m sure we’re getting a lot of suggestions including Lambos, BMWs and the like, but right now the winner for me is the Mercedes GLK 350, specifically the one that wrecked my Thunderbird last night. Looks like a nice SUV, but it was definitely driven by someone who was speeding and…

Yeah, he said the same thing when he kicked a Ferrari out of his dad’s garage.

This is New Jersey. I’ll bet that buyer met the deer later and slipped him $250 for bringing the price of the truck down.

The Supreme Leader was expecting a vehicle that could withstand the Holdo Maneuver.

Jalopnik: What’s the most annoying car in your area?

In 2013 (I think), I bought a 1994 Trans Am from a small dealership in Pennsylvania - got a ride up there with a friend, then went for it and got started driving the Trans Am back to Virginia. Things were going great, and the gas gauge was sticking around 3/4 full for most of the trip. About 40 miles up the road, it…

Toyota is just subtly letting us know they have a lot of shit in the works that they just don’t want getting out.

Plenty of people have already pointed out rampant misuse of the left lane as a cruising lane. I think we need to start training slower drivers (even if the reason is legit - your car has problems, you’re carrying an open load, you have perception issues) that the interstate is not for you. 99% of the time, secondary…

I feel required to take up for the Thunderbird SC since I recently bought this one. So much to love about the Super Coupe - the supercharged 3.8, the ridiculous amount of ahead-of-its-time tech, the understated sleeper looks, the ability to out-perform its Mustang contemporaries...

The guy who sold me my Corvair got it as a pair with a ‘64 Corvair Monza convertible originally owned by John Glenn. That car was still only worth less than $5,000 and his expectations weren’t high once he was finished restoring it. If I was filthy rich, maybe I’d make a big donation to that charity and tell them they…

Hard to pick a winner between stuff like my General Lee, my Jaguar XKE pedal car or my insane collection of matchbox cars, with particular favorites being a ‘73 Challenger (blue with red hood scoops) and a late 70's Mercury wagon, but the most unique had to be my US-1 Electric Trucking slot car set. It was full of…
