That might actually be a viable plan soon. Thanks Obama!

Thankfully, most of the cars the adorned with them self immolated years ago, like these Cavaliers.

I honestly forgot the Flex was being sold for a while - they’re never on dealer lots and they never get advertised. The latest grille design is kind of ugly, but they’re still cool.

This. I like this. Nose art and other decorations need to make a comeback (beyond the A-10 community, who never let it die, of course).

This is cool. Does moving the weight of the calipers down a few inches matter much in the scheme of things? Probably not, but they’re as low as possible because racecar. No road car gets this level of minimally useful attention to detail, but stuff like this abounds on ground-up racecars.

I’m going to take a guess where the previous owner went - the ground.

This, right here, is totally wrong.

It’s like taking the labels off all the spices in your cupboard and throwing them all into your taco meat. It’s going to taste weird and give you tecnhnicolor nightmare shits.

I think it looks more copper than brown, which looks good in spite of the stripes.Do you know what color looks awful on a Viper? Gold.

Many city dwellers and even more municipal fleets use hybrids, full electrics, or CNG (buses and other heavy trucks). Diesels are at their best on the highways, where many Americans spend their time.

I drive a 2012 Focus, which, thanks to being a godless socialist euro car, lacks the keypad. Even if you plumped for a fancy-pants Titanium, you couldn’t get the keypad. Apparently people were so miffed by this that Ford offered an add-on keypad as a dealer option, which looked like something from Pep Boys.

In a vacuum, these taillights don’t look that odd...but next to your head they look huge. It’s disturbing.

I think Ford is slowly fixing it. My fiance’s 2013 Edge has these stalks and they drive us both mad, but the 2016 a friend just picked up has the standard stalks used in my Focus, the Escape, and other Fords.

Well, that’s plain weird. I’m stumped.

That was probably a remnant of an old alarm system. I’ve seen cars from the ‘60s and ‘70s with lock cylinders like you’d use to unlock the doors on the fenders. They were attached to alarm systems back then and often left in the open as an expedient, but that hatch is a good place to do it on a Corvette, where cutting

If the guy with the .45 casings reloaded them (which makes sense - loaded ammo can be expensive and it’s generally considered ‘easy’ to reload), I could see how he could lose a bunch if he dropped a bag full of them or it fell over.

It was a 2001 Camaro. I thought that was assumed.

And a coupon for the girl?

The new dark gray paint scheme is much better looking than the old pale gray. It looks badass AND hides the wear and tear.

What game is this? It looks like a blast.
