28 years old and the Ford flathead V8 has been my favorite engine for about as long as I can remember. Back in high school (10 years ago now) I bought an 8BA at an auction for $5 because the auctioneer looked at me, I moved my head, and no one made a second bid. It’s still sitting in the shed. I have a 1950 F3 that…

Truthfully there isn’t much from 1973-1994 that I would want to buy. Maybe a handful of cars. Before ‘73 and after ‘94 there are tons!

Your dad is cooler than you. 

During the “fats are bad” period, people used it because in theory you can get by with less of it than if you used other shortenings or oils.

Pan is excellent for waffle irons, and has a few other applications where it's better than oil/butter. 

Moron, PAM is not a need is just another option to grease a pan, no one is claiming you must use it, you don’t like it don’t use it is that easy.

There is an added ingredient to aerosol sprays that allow the oil to spread out an cling to surfaces. You can use less oil, get even coverage and apply it to surfaces (like cling wrap) that you would not otherwise be able to grease.

Aerosol sprays provide fast, even coating—fluted/stylized bundt pans come to mind—compared to other fats/methods of application.

I would really love to have a Levorg STI

We absolutely do make stuff. As an engineer I can build a water treatment plant and use nothing but stuff made in the USA. What we don’t do is make consumer goods sold at Wal-Mart anymore. If you want a $200,000 pump and can’t afford German I can find you American ones all day.

I don’t know why Americans think a trade…

Random thought, but, didn’t Kodak do the same thing with digital cameras? 

1st gear- why should Honda/Toyota rush into a segment of questionable demand and limited supply? Various companies have had to delay or scale back EV launches due to supply issues. Tesla deliveries are way down indicating a slump in EV demand.

2nd Gear: Why does anyone think China would pay for the tariffs? Can anyone explain that reasoning to me? It’s so plainly, obviously untrue to anyone with even the most basic understanding of economics.

It’s kind of disappointing not to have more information on the device and how it worked.

Since its debut in 1970, Suzuki says the Jimmy has sold over 285 million units in 194 countries and regions

Whoever designed the Camaro and Silverado updates needs to be fired and arrested for sabotage.

So you know how they tried to mimic the Camaro’s design in the new Blazer? The same thing, in reverse, works pretty well.

You have to give them credit for design consistency ... with the Silverado.

Say what you will about the first modern iteration, but I’ll always think that face looked the best.
