That’s true. I’ve done things with the hitch on my suburban that were super sketchy. And none of those things exceeded the weight rating on my soccer-mom car, or the default license rating I got when I was 16.

The McLaren F1 is overrated and ugly.

In America, driving mostly sucks and anyone who tells you different is trying to sell you something.

You aren’t wrong

The Porsche 944 is better looking than the 928.

69 year old here. Couldn’t agree more about the hypercar licensing. And that applies to the 18 year old being given one as a birthday present as well as the 70 year old still trying to make up for his other deficiencies.

spending millions of dollars and millions of gallons of fuels to transport cars all over the world so they can race against each other is indeed awful. Such a immense waste of resources.

Towing more than 5,000 lbs should require a special license endorsement. 

The US should require behind the wheel driving tests every 10 years. With a written test every 5.

For a fun car, I’d take FWD over AWD 99% of the time

The 25 year rule doesn’t exist for safety or emissions, it’s because importing “grey market” cars from Europe was so lucrative a business in the 70s and 80s that the dealership lobby paid off Washington to make it illegal. 

“though the automaker is yet to release a service bulletin.”

Base model zero option economy cars should have manual transmissions, Civics, Mirages, Sentras, Elantras etc. Pretty much all of these offer manual transmissions in their previous generations or in their current performance models so they have the tooling. I’m really just tired of CVTs and think more people having to…

Who is Number One?

Yeah, but in all the places a car can quit on you, what are the chances they would in the the middle of a railroad crossing? the percentage of road in any place that has a RR Xing on it compared to not has to be tiny. Hell, I’ve even seen people have to push a car off of the tracks once. Not sure if there was a train…

Countless more cars break down away from railroad tracks, but there’s rarely a reason to share a video of it happening.

My thoughts exactly. What are the chances this happens?

You mean all the people winning the HermanCainAward?

My grandmother was killed in a crash in 1978, which she probably would have survived if she had been wearing a seatbelt. Since that day, my family have always, always worn our seatbelts. It seems like in some cases, people just don’t get it until it directly affects them, due to a lack of imagination, or a lack of empa…

Derek Kieper was an anti seatbelt advocate who died in a car crash where a seatbelt would have saved his life.
