That’s too much for a 20-year-old modded car from an orphaned brand. There’s nothing collectible about later Saabs so why is the price so high? Nice car, just too much ask.

Give them credit: they definitely greased the landing.

The street breathalyzer is frequently incorrect and the courts increasingly require blood testing to establish an accurate BAC. If they don’t offer a breathalyzer and tell you that you must have a blood test done implied consent requires you to comply and the results won’t be known in any reasonable amount of time. 

I’m not the original guy, but I’ll answer from my experience: The results from the blood test took a significant amount of time and I didn’t know the results until I was formally charged two months later. Once the police arrest you process you it is out of their hands and becomes a matter for the district attorney’s…

The reason they started going after pinball in the 1930s is because that was before the era of flippers, thus it was a game of chance instead of skill, and in fact one of the leading manufacturers of pinball machines, Bally, remains a leading manufacturer of slot machines. In some “disreputable” establishments you…

Has the value of metals increased so much that I could get $6000 for scrapping it? If not, No Dice, because that has no value as a vehicle whatsoever to anyone but the Dr. Frankenstein who put it together originally.

When the thing you’ve done your entire life starts to be too expensive to continue, even as you innovate and make it better for everyone, you’d be associating with anyone offering you money to continue, too.

They start at the beginning. The problem is that their careers come to an end much lower on the ladder than men.

They’re trying to elicit participation from enthusiasts. Would it be better if they picked their top 10, published it, and then let us have at it?

I’m into weird and quirky (I drive a Juke), so while I can objectively say it’s hideous it’s still really neat. I’d love to see it as well.

The Sir Vival.

I’m close enough to this that it’s tempting me to mortgage my future to get it.

Nope. It stood for Ford/Edsel. And the MEL family stood for Mercury/Edsel/Lincoln.

Protectionism? China is currently our “ally” in the sense that they are contracted to make a lot of stuff for us. But they have ambitions on their sphere of influence that are opposed, and we support those who oppose them. There is a not-insignificant chance that we will be engaged in a shooting war with China in the…

They far and away outweigh the damage done by internal combustion engines, and I’m a petrolhead who will be sorry to see them (and manual transmissions) go away. There will still be environmental damage, of course, but that can be localized instead of generalized via exhaust simply spewed into the air. Yes,…

I bought a Juke with a manual transmission because it’s weird and therefore exactly what I was looking for. It drives like a go-kart, has all kinds of zip, gets decent mileage, makes all the right sounds, and looks like an angry frog. Being a manual it’s also theft-proof.

It’s customized to his taste. Not mine.

With 783 votes there are 5 fucking clowns that are living proof that humanity is doomed. It’s virtually impossible to be that far on the wrong side of anything, yet there you are. Out yourselves and take the accolades you deserve.

Being stuck on a gigantic incubator with people who actively lie about being sick because they paid for a cruise and by God they’re going no matter what? Shit, I’m all about it. Maybe while I’m on the ship it can lose power for a few days or have propulsion and sewage problems. Hell, let’s go whole hog and throw some…

My high school girlfriend had a manual one of these. It was typical of Volkswagens of the last 40 years: felt solid, fell apart piece by piece, expensive to fix, not even remotely quick but perfectly adequate.
