Nah, it’s just as bad at muscle car weekend. I used to go every year until I got 5 fines totalling $350 in one stop and was told my Jeep would get towed if they saw me driving again. It was 5 hours after I arrived in OC on Thursday. I was supposed to stay all weekend but I left Friday. My offense was driving a “highly…

Thanks for proving you are just a contrarian troll. Enjoy your awesome legacy iPhone 5 from 2013.

People moan and bitch constantly about how their phone battery is too small and never lasts a whole day, no matter how big a battery is jammed in their phone. Because charging is inconvenient.

It’s not effort, but convenience.

Wireless charger on a 3D printed stand on my bedside. I drop the phone on it and it charges. No more searching for a plug when its pitch black or dropping the cord behind the nighstand. With the stand, I don’t have to worry about lining up the phone perfectly on the charger, if it’s…

I’ve designed and 3D printed phone cradles for my car and my wife’s car. The cradle bolts to a vehicle-specific ProClipUSA dash mount, holds an Anker fast wireless charging pad, and holds the phone perfectly placed on the center of the pad. Drop the phone in and go, no more plugging or unplugging when getting in and…

I’d say wireless charger tech is advancing just fine without Apple in the mix. There are already two powerful standards in Qi and Powermat and fast wireless charging is already a thing (at least on Saumsung?). Plus good quality, reliable, cheap wireless charging pads are plentiful from reputable companies. I have a…

15 bucks off the Fire 7 and $25 off the HD 8. I bought the latter, got the Kindle and case for $90. Thanks for the heads up!

I feel like boxer/pit is code for pit bull. I’d honestly say your dog looks nothing like a boxer.

Not hating, I have a lab/pit mix. The dogs are awesome, I just don’t think your dog has any characteristics of a Boxer.

... did you really censor his junk?

Wonder if the same thing will happen in DC with all the stuff named after racist, crack smoking, corrupt, “mayor for life” Marion Barry.

I did this once. Had a 2" lift and 32's on my XJ when I bought it as a 2nd vehicle. Then I was like “jeeping is awesome and I can daily drive this thing 50 miles a day while going offroading on the weekends!” So I sold my supercharged Mustang convertible that I’d had and built up over the last 4-5 years.

Then I had…

Or you can get screwed over by your dealer when you buy a ‘demo’ vehicle. I bought a demo Jeep with 5k miles on the clock and was promised that the 3yr/36k mile warranty would start from the day I bought it. Because the vehicle is ‘untitled’ while being demo’d. I swear I had a piece of paper stating when the warranty…

Oh I know, but still Spartan compared to the Golf R.

I had no idea the production numbers for the R63 were so low. The faculty advisor for our college car club had one as his family car.

I’m guessing you mean the restyled SRT-8 in 2012?

The max price on one of those back then was maybe $75k with every possible option. If you put $10k down on that with a 0% interest rate for 5 years and no taxes, you’re still paying $1100/mo.

Maybe the dude walked away grumbling because your math was so wrong?

If I had a bit of extra cash laying around, I’d be ordering one right now. My wife has a super low mileage Accord that’s paid off and we only have two parking spaces. I want an SUV and a sports car, but can’t have both. An SRT Jeep would tickle my fancy just fine, but an SRT Jeep with 700hp is just icing on the cake.

W…

It’s not the HP number that matter, it’s the feel and the acceleration times. The BRZ is just dogshit slow. Have you driven a turbo inline-six BMW in the last decade? My E90 335i was surprisingly fast, plenty of power for the road. My friend has owned 4-5 turbo BMWs in the last 10 years and says the B58 in his 340i…

My mom is looking for a new car, so I’ve traded her my Grand Cherokee for the week so she can see how she likes driving something that size. In return, I get her manual E90 335i. Despite the fact that it seems to have a nasty misfire at higher boost levels, the car is an absolute blast to drive with ‘only’ 300 stock…

I don’t really geek out about it, but I get a lot of questions when I tell people I make explosives for a living. My wife loves to tell people and get their reaction, then I have to do a 20 minute schpeal explaining my job while she walks away laughing.

Check out any mustang from 94-04. Two cupholders in line just behind the shifter. As in, the exact space your forearm occupies when you are operating said manual shifter. Absolutely worthless for anything taller than a cell phone.

I bought this exact car back in 2010 or so. It had 70k miles and was clean as a whistle other than the fact that it was basically sitting on the ground on blown out Skunk2 coilovers. Bought it for $7k cash and replaced the suspension with koni’s and ground control coilovers. Best DD ever and I was an idiot and sold it…
