My thoughts exactly... although, it’s western Oregon. Trying to dry anything out around here this time of year is an exercise in futility.

Ken, your posts always deliver. Great writing, amazing photos. Awesome stuff, keep it coming.

I lived near Chicago for like 20 years and I never really figured out exactly what kind of pepper they are. They’re just small (like, pinky-sized), skinny pickled green peppers. No clue where the name came from, but it seems pretty specific to Chicago.

I used to live in a shitty little town in Illinois that was home to a Chrysler plant, a Walmart, and not much else. There was a GMC/Cadillac dealership there that would run ads later at night on some of the local stations. They were often poorly produced, but not super corny like some of the others I’ve seen on here.…

Haters be damned, I fucking love that thing.

I am an unabashed lover of GTIs. I’ve owned a couple of GTIs over the years, and I currently own a MK7, but the MK2 has always been my favorite even though I’ve never owned one. I hope to change that someday, but I’m afraid that by the time I have the money/space for a second car, I’m not going to be able to find a…

I’m totally getting myself one of those Wagoneer looking things for Christmas. That is so cool.

I’ve been playing for almost 40 years. I think I qualify as a professional by now. :)

I don’t love the choice of material on the front grille, and the center HVAC vents scream “Jeep Renegade” to me, but overall, it’s quite nice. The headlights look a little bit small, but it seems to me that the whole front end with the raised center section, the small headlights, and the large intake/grille is taking…

Automoblox are fun too. I have a couple of these sitting on my desk right now that were a Christmas gift from my sister.

Nice price... despite the fact that I know next to nothing about Citroens or the current value of something like this CX. I’ve always found CXs, DSs and the like to be fascinating little marvels of French ingenuity. This one obviously needs a bit of work, but I think it would be a fun project... or a financially…

I’m one of those “bros” who bought a German entry-level luxury car when I got my first promotion like 10 years ago, but now I’m older and wiser (kinda), and I’m seriously considering picking up a CPO IS as my next car. Sure, it’s a bit bland compared to something like a 3 Series, but it’s comfortable, competent, and I…

The real mystery here isn’t why he was ticketed. No, the real mystery is why, in 2017, Gonna Make You Sweat is someone’s favorite song.

I love that color combination. Awesome shot with the Shinkansen in the background too!

Aerodynamicats! I love it.

My ‘06 Si had this exact same problem, as did my friend’s six speed Accord of the same model year. This was apparently a known issue with that six speed gearbox, and at the time, the forums recommended replacing the factory transmission oil with Amsoil oil. I was extremely dubious, but it actually did make a…

I worked in the business in the late 90's/early 00's, so I also had tons of experience with those horrible GM interiors. This photo gives me flashbacks.

I hate F-Body cars, but I’ve always had a strange soft spot for Camaros of this particular vintage because they were the shit when I was in high school. Not enough of a soft spot to vote NP on this example, but it’s definitely nice. If it wasn’t a convertible, I probably would have voted differently.

Haha... Millennial Beige.

This is pretty much exactly what I wanted to say. Obviously when I’m in Michigan, I say “I’m from Mt. Clemens”, but I live on the other side of the country, and if I’m making small talk with someone out here, I’m not going to waste my breath (or their time) explaining precisely where in the state of Michigan I was…
