Is this even a contest? Because Preston Tucker has to take this one hands-down. He produced a car way ahead of its time and was squashed by the Big Three only for them to later use a lot of the features he wanted on his cars. Whether you believe the theatrics of the movie or not, Tucker was a prime example of how hard…

The correct answer is, of course, Vista Cruiser. Yeah, manual is hard to find, but in his budget the conversion to a muncie 4-speed is easy. And you get those vista windows. Case closed. My work is done here.

If we’re gonna bring on the flaming, let’s do it right:

Anyone who has ever sold a Corvette can confirm there’s a ton of ways these things can go sideways.

I feel like “Is it still possible to get deals on leftover models” is more of a question for Christie Brinkley or Paulina Poriskova.

The new Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Fe. Two front wheel drive cars pretending to be pickups might be the closest we can get to something as useful as the old Ranger and S-10 in today’s regulatory environment, but it really doesn’t fully fill the void left behind by the loss of those trucks to people who actually…

If he wants to sell it fast, may I suggest adding the words “Holy Grail” to the description...

Me: The dealer did the right thing! That was an irresponsible and dangerous use of a customer’s care and a breach of trust!

My 1980 Triumph Spitfire is not equipped with overdrive, so it’s top speed is maybe 60mph. I wouldn’t dare drive it on the interstate, but it’s so slow and so well-balanced, that you can do whatever you want on curves without worrying about getting in trouble. Plus you can’t see a Spitfire and not be happy, so…

I agree with you because I don’t like to huge wheel look, but I sympathize since muscle cars came with 14-inch wheels but also came with bias ply tires. The lack of give in the sidewall made them handle better. When radials came out, muscle cars were much worse around corners. Huge wheels comes closer to replicating…

Haven’t regretted any of my own mods and this is very minor, but back in the 80's my father decided it would be cool to put a chrome exhaust tip extension on his Subaru GL. It looked okay, but we all still have scars from going to unload something from the back and accidentally touching our knees to the hot tip. He…

Ah-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HA HA!

None of these choices are good for someone who wants to do his own wrenching. It’s not the age of the car that’s the problem here, it’s getting in and out. This guy really does need to move into classic muscle car territory. $30,000 is enough to get a good example of a Cutlass or a Skylark with plenty of…

Can’t wait to see him fill his gas tank.

Looking at this car made me want to put on khaki pants. It made me want to calculate my tip at the restaurant so the bill totaled exactly $15. It made me want to go through my bookshelves and make sure all the books were pulled forward enough so the spines were an even one inch from the lip of the shelf. It made me…

Stuff like this makes me feel even more guilty about that time I left my Snorlax in the Pokemon gym on the Jersey Turnpike. 

The Foxbody Mustang. In the early 90's, Ford seemed dead set on keeping the Foxbody stuck at 225 (really 205) HP for most of its run, only giving it a small boost when the Cobra came out as the Foxbody was leaving. The whole time, the car was getting trounced by Camaros and Firebirds, which were more aerodynamic and…

Happy Birthday, David! May all your Jeeps... start.

Now we’ll finally get to see if the “It’s a Jeep thing. You Wouldn’t Understand” defense will stand up in court.

I had a Ford Ranger with a manual and it was definitely fun to row gears in... until you had a passenger in the middle seat. Then it got a little too personal if I had to put it in reverse.
