No not really... Had an 03 Grand Prix Gt. only had to replace 2 coils, the cat, water pump, and radiator. 250k miles before the transmission gave up, we sold it to the shop we towed it to. Last I knew of they’d fixed it and it was at 270k, driven by the shop owner’s daughter. Interior looked brand new, no rust on the…

How could it possibly age worse?

I love how they’ve put every single season of TG on Netflix at some point aside from 1. It’s like they’re categorically denying that man ever existed. I wouldn’t be surprised to see one of those old Soviet style pictures where it was him, Hammond, and Clarkson, except they changed it so Hammond has his arm around a…

I don’t really meet the ideal candidate specified, but I can guarantee I would kick this job’s ass. Serious resume and cover letter sent in.

I mean, it would be, if there were no other people to endanger and you weren’t completely off your face. And not liable to be charged with a serious crime.

Man, driving on LSD is such a bad idea... I did once, probably about 5-6 hours after drop. Felt almost completely normal when I left. It was only when I got on the road that I realized I had no innate concept of momentum or speed. I was able to maintain lane position quite easily, and only minor visuals remained at…

Had a very similar incident happen to me. My Grand Prix GT was filled with 5 highschool kids, we were on our way to a buddy’s new house, and got a bit lost. So we pulled over on the side of the country road to call for directions.

There were around 30 ozs of weed and a wonderful three chamber bubbler pipe in the…

This can be a bitch when you’ve got deep well plugs, the kind that are go down the middle of the valve cover. Threading them in by hand with a long extension makes the feel a decent amount more difficult to detect.

Pretty surprising considering that someone actually puts a decent amount of time into the car selection of the show.

Tavarish currently drives an old S-class Merc, if I’m not mistaken. So he does practice what he preaches.

Are you referring to the GM build quality that landed them top spots in 8 out of 19 car categories on JD power’s dependability study for this year?

Honestly, anyone who still thinks GM doesn’t know how to build a car needs to check their calendar and realize it’s not 2000 anymore.

Hahah yeah, those episodes were hilarious. And you’ve hit it spot on in your analysis.

This.

They appear to have been so excited about building a shiny, window saturated palm tree oasis with a big logo on the top that they forgot they, yanno, actually have to BUILD something there. And that they have only the vaguest idea what that something will be.

But hey, they’re gonna use geothermal energy, so who…

TBH I was more disappointed in the FiST and GTI reccomendations. Sure, car guys know what they are, and we notice them whenever we see them, but everyone else just sees another Golf or Fiesta. At least in America the fullsize Transit would stick out a bit, so it answers the question better.

Goddamnit, who told Hardigree about swear words? First the Navigator concept video, now this.

Seriously Matt. You’re not in middle school (I think). Stop talking like it.

Pretty sure everyone who hates the F/F series needs to lighten up.

Are they realistic? No. But they’re clearly not even trying to be. They’re just over the top films, so far over the top that you can’t help but laugh and enjoy the sheer improbability of what’s happening on screen.

I mean there’s a scene in FF7 where…

My grandpa had an old Ramcharger SUV amongst his graveyard of heavy equipment, farm implements, and log skidders.

It’s been too long for me to remember what year it was, or the specific condition it was in. The only thing I really do remember is getting in it one day, only to find a massive hornets nest and paying the…

Hahah yeah. Honestly I’ve been considering an 05+ GT as my next car, but the plethora of the aformentioned bros that ruin the image of the car are giving me pause.

Then again, I owned a Miata and C4 Corvette, so vehicles with image problems are sort of in my nature

I just call them Mustang Drivers. Because it’s always a fucking Mustang.
