I’m at least grateful this guy has publicly identified himself so anyone thinking of producing a kid with him will know it’s a bad idea.

Not sure if this counts because it isn’t technically merch, years ago my father bought a Buick Riviera (1980 maybe?) and it came with a Buick-branded cassette tape that was supposed to demonstrate the sound system. Buick logo on the front, bad music on the tape.

The power windows in my 1989 Firebird have this feature. Well, no, they don’t, but they move so slowly you can totally pinpoint where you want to stop/give up-say-f**k-it-and-reach-over.

When I was in Israel, I avoided making the conversions from Shekels to dollars when I bought gas and food. That little bit of disconnect made me feel better about spending gobs of money.

Gimme that NA Miata! Headlights go up... headlights go down... headlights go up...

My 1968 Cutlass had rear air shocks when I first got it that gave it that angry muscle car stance I’m fond of. They tended to leak, though and failed within a year. I was able to get that stance by switching to stock shocks and coil springs from a Cutlass wagon. The wagon springs were a direct fit, gave me exactly the

I am just relieved that the Changli stans haven’t hijacked the comments section to accuse you of staging the failure.

I am contributing a word comment!

My wife used to have a 2006 Chrysler Town & Country. Every once in a while, with no warning, all the interior lights would start flashing randomly and the chime would ding over and over. Then it would stop. I think the outside lights participated, too. We never knew when it would happen and no mechanic, electrical

Unpopular opinion, but the rear hatch/rounded backside and the lay-flat headlights were some of my favorite parts of the 928. Take them away, ruin it’s gorgeous profile and ask for more money? ND.

Given the size of this car, I can only assume it exists because the owner bought it, drove it home and promptly misplaced it. He was cleaning out the garage last week, and found it behind some U-Haul boxes and was like “Oh yeah, I did buy a bottom-of-the-line plan-Jane Chevy Metro with unpainted bumpers! All those

Nothing.

So it took lighting a literal fire under your ass to light a fire under your ass to get into upgrading the Changli? 

Please tell me they were auctioning off over-stocked Jeep Liberties.

GM Exec: We need a youth-oriented GMC-branded crossover!
GM Exec 2: Yeah! What youth-oriented name should we give it?
GM Exec: Let’s name it after the most common kitchen countertop substance in upscale houses.
GM Exec 2: For sure. Kids love that shit.

I regret letting go of my toys to this day. I had a full collection of Gen 1 Transformers and most of the GoBots as well. Including the Transformers you had to send UPC codes in and get in a plain white box. I let them all go when I grew up but kept a few issues of the comic thinking that would appreciate. Wrong. So

GoBots were first. And the toys were awesome. But I can’t stress enough, the good guys were led by a GoBot named “Leader 1". The bad guys by a Motorcycle named... get this... Cy-Kill. There was a tank. His name was “Tank.” There was a helicopter. His name was “Cop-Tur.”

I fully expect them to walk back this campaign, then try to snag my business with:

Major dad points, Jason. Kids have it great these days. If we wanted a cheap Transformers knock-off, we had to settle for GoBots with creative names like “Turbo” and “Tux.” And their leader... “Leader 1.”

Ok, let’s court some controversy.
