You’re absolutely right—there’s no topping a grand slam home run after doing so the first time at bat. (And how the front wheel wells are so much bigger on the bottom example...yeesh.)

Already addressed.

The lumpmobile current gen Charger and the “Chrysler Cordoba-ized” 4 gen Charger aren’t anything to get excited over either, but at least they’re RWD with V8s under the hood. The 5 gen? Pure heresy.

Yes, I’m back from LA, so there you go.  Pretty obvious, right?

The Dodge Charger gets its shout-out for the worst with the 5th gen (1982-87) FWD 4-banger iteration:

Yeah, if you’re gonna produce robocars, deliberately blinding them with less sensors calculating what self-driving it can do makes “perfect” sense.... If you want to pinch pennies while removing functionality, this’ll do it.

Cute Ute? No. Smashed-up Bug? Yes.

These large screens, which are proliferating across models up and down the price spectrum (all the way from high to very high), have to be ticking time bombs in cars. I’m talking about replacement cost when the vehicle doesn’t have that many years on it, and thanks to boiling heat combined with freezing cold cycles,…

Well I’m amazed—three of the cars are meh gens of their models—WTF?

(Let me preface this with when I see the real steel, maybe it’s a different impression. I thought the Jeep Cherokee “spider eye” headlights from a decade ago were an abomination. Once I saw the actual vehicle, I had to do a 180—they looked great.)

I did my Army enlistment as NATO headcount, so I love what the Finns are doing on more than one level. But especially how they’re saying, “Eff you, Putin. Pull any Ukraine shit here and we’ll crush you.”

A stark yet solid looking truck that doesn’t break the bank? Plus it’s a Ford, so maintenance needed won’t be a crusher like the German vehicles’ parts/labor cost. I say go for it.

And he didn’t drive a Fairlane?

So it’s a flick ripping off the Joker’s drug that makes people smile as they croak.  “Genius”.

BMW: broke man walking.

And in the spirit of color-blind, illogical casting, let’s have:

He didn’t like being married to Eva Braun 2?  “Shocking”.

The Heritage Editions look so good, I’m surprised that 90% of the Broncos aren’t built as those versions.

Someone had to state the obvious...would be like listing the colors of the sky and leaving off “blue” if the E-type wasn’t there.

I know, right?  Even Enzo Ferrari admitted how the E-type was a flat-out knockout.
