You just want me to list specs for a 34 year old car? I can link you to a Wikipedia article if you’d like. 

Moved to CO from MA about 8 years ago. Trying to convince CO natives that winters in the Northeast are actually worse is a losing battle, but in either place I’d not want to be without snow tires in winter. The difference between all-seasons and proper snows is just too big, and those differences are only going to

I live in upstate NY. Plenty of locals also don’t know what they’re doing. Or forget every year. Who knows.

Yup. Just waiting for snow in the forecast to start the Annual Big Swap.

“WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT, WELFARE ABUSING, GOVERNMENT OVERSPENDING IS THIS?! A FUCKING MERCEDES IS DROPPING OFF MY MAIL?! I CAN’T EVEN AFFORD A NEW FUCKING KIA, AND I’M PAYING THAT ASSHOLES SALARY TO DRIVE A MERCEDES?! NO WONDER TRUMP WANTS TO KILL THE USPS, THIS IS BULLLLLSHIITTTTTT”

Because it is one of the few scenarios where one can enjoy the suffering of another free of guilt, he can make the bad choices I don’t have the time, money, and garage space to make, and he seems to enjoy those horrible decisions.

I think he’s already screwed with his welding the sway bar bracket on after breaking a bolt thing.   David makes sturdy welds, but I don’t remember him making pretty welds.   I don’t see a TUV inspector being cool with the idea of a car with a weld repair that isn’t perfect going down the Autobahn.   But I’ve only

I enjoy it! David’s a good writer who always includes enough detail and pictures to keep any story interesting, even when I’m not 100% into the subject matter. He’ll get deep in the weeds on an engine rebuild or random cooling issue that I don’t really understand, but he breaks down the “this is why it’s bad” well enou

YES I GIVE A SHIT! Don’t be an asshole! Many jalopniks live just for the “WTF is he gonna do next to top this shitbox?” with Dave. He actually teaches us a lot of useful tips in discussing how he approaches his challenges. If nothing else we follow for the Schadenfreude!

Yes, yes we do. These are some of my favorite articles on here. If you are looking for the latest review of exotic sports cars 99.99% of people will never be able to own, you have come to the wrong place. 

While I do enjoy the mechanical details of DT’s wrenching articles, there are always human interest elements that are equally entertaining. You didn’t get a warm spot reading about Loyal sucking in gas fumes for some random stranger?

Then.... don’t click the story.

And yet you did come here, read this, and take the time to comment.  Shouldn’t you be out working on your own POS?

Are you new here or something?   This is like bread and butter to most of us.

I mention that the fan is for aero purposes and not this--and we cover that in other articles. I just want to know if you could move the car with the fan. I know that’s not the point!

Mine is a 91 also. Take your brothers out for a drive, when they are good they are good

I need to know ALL the details of this story.

I once heard that someone repaired a Land Rover Discovery, and it worked fine afterwards. For years, even.

I had to fix a transmission with a can of stew once. Story is in your inbox.
