an unreliable 80s VW automatic, licensed and built by Renault, installed in an AMC by Chrysler

There aren’t many of these cars left, and I’d venture that in 20 years they would be somewhat collectable. They are AMC’s last effort after all, and had a number of technical innovations in them including the first US car with complex reflector headlights, the 4 speed automatic, and torsion bar rear suspension.

Fowl? He said motherfucker, not chickenfucker.

Are you new?

For California riders who can lanesplit, this automatically doesn’t make any sense. It would be going off the entire ride... I honestly do not see this being useful.

Worst forum shit storm ever seen? Easy. Go to any thread on Gawker or Jezebel, make a comment where you might appear to not be a left wing liberal nut job. You could tell them the sky is blue.

Fixed. Everyone told you NOT to buy an M62 car for this exact reason. NOW can you finally stop telling people who can’t afford an M5 to buy a car with the disaster of an engine that is a high-mile M62?

Hmmm since the parents actively sought out the media and the article is based entirely off of their word...... I’m gonna go ahead and guess that there is a lot that they aren’t saying that might go a long way towards explaining the other passengers’ reactions.

I much prefer that little muppet-troll go fuck himself in the ass with a cactus. Made of wolves. And lava.

Always remember, kids, safety first.

Don’t worry - there are many other things for him to crash into.

I really enjoyed this movie back then and continue to enjoy it today. I will argue that the soundtrack was a wonderful fit for the movie-Queen knocked it out of the park. My very first record and 45 at that was the theme song for this movie.
