My Father in law has one of these. Got his for a similar price. Its a driver, and he’s not stingy about handing off the keys to let me have some fun when we visit either. This is a perfect car for some cheap fun on twisty country roads

I think I can I think I can I think I can I think I’m a can.

This truly is the Donald Trump of cars. It’s what a poor person’s idea of what a rich person would be like, but really is just terrible all around, unreliable, inefficient, inherited a name, made everything over the top and worse, but poor people still look at it and think “Cadillac” so it MUST be luxurious.

It just means there are only 16 people sad enuff to be home on Saturday night, reading Jalapnik, commenting on Jalopnik...

My first car was a Type 3 which had one of these. Incredibly, the guy at the car lot actually pointed out this light and told me correctly what it was for. Later that winter I discovered I needed to drive one-handed so I could use the other to scrape the frost off the inside of the windshield, but this light gave me…

Along those lines, I give you the 2016-present Prius roof console (for non-sunroof models, but the feature I’m talking about is on sunroof models as well):

Many people like their cars to reflect themselves.

the view the other way...

Bob & Doug should have popped the hatch and yelled at the onlookers:

Fun fact time! 95% of your vehicle’s weight is held up by the air in the tire, the remaining 5% is the tire. Check your pressures people!

Right, but it doesn’t change the fact that the midgate in the Avalanche made it incredibly versatile and utilitarian. Regardless of if the customers used them or not. I think a midgate on the Hummer pickup turns it from more of a gimmick to an actual usable truck. 5ft bed and seating for 5 when you’re cruising around…

15 years or so ago, I worked with a guy who had an inexplicable affinity for the Bronco II. I don’t know if it was nostalgia, or if it was just the coolest thing he could afford at the time.

Crack doesn’t get better with age, even if it is wine colored inside.

Modern car yes. Side project/fun car also yes... can be an old cheap unsafe shitbox.

Yep, This. 

The Matrix and the Vibe also have that thing where a couple of them got 8K RPM redlines and 6-speed transmissions.

A little overrated?  The reality is that they were complete crap even back in the day.

Sounds Acurate to me...

The van driver should have pulled over on his own Accord. Now he’ll going to get a Civic lesson on hit and runs. Hopefully the punishment Fits the crime and he goes on an Odyssey to his local penitentiary.
