I was ready to plonk my cash down and buy my first new car in 20 odd years.. I really like the new Buick... Instead, back to the used car market I go.. seeya GM

Here in Toronto, any of them would be a good start..

Yup.. Here in Canada it’s pretty easy.. Wife was looking at an imported US car with speedo in miles, carproof and carfax indicate it was always a Southern US registered car. But rust on lower steering column, pedal brackets etc had me telling her to pass - reeked of flood damage. After months of searching it was the…

If it was just the frame i would have swapped it out.. but rear quarters rusted from the inside out.. what looked mint on the outside, i poked holes with no effort from behind. Rear wheel wells disintegrated the with a poke when i pulled back the carpet. Same with the trunk floor. With all the other spots going bad,…

I miss mine.. scrapped it a few months ago after the frame disintegrated and the body started rotting badly everywhere except the external panels. Looked mint still, but beyond saving. She will live on though.. yanked the LT1 and will bore it out 383, convert to 4 bolt main, and build for boost. I now have both cast…

Holy shit.. I just looked it up.. A 90s SL is less than 100lbs lighter than my old 94 Fleetwood?

Like another commenter mentioned, increase in gas prices is nothing compared to what the folks in Texas are going through..

It’s definitely a polarizing design overall.. I happen to love it, but I can see how other jalops don’t.

The only way this makes sense is if some exec at Audi was badgered by his wife because her dumb ass brother working in sales at the badge supplier needs to up his numbers..

I swore (and so far been true) I’d never buy a brand new daily driver. But that wagon.. i can’t pin what I like about it over the few other true wagons available.. but give it real car stance and lose the wheel arch cladding (I’ll even settle for aftermarket support if they can do both) and I’ll make an exception to…

I believe here in Ontario, as long as the container/ packaging still has the original seal it can be in the passenger compartment. The moment the seal is broken, or you rip open the box of a case of beer (regardless of whether the beers inside are sealed or not), in the trunk it goes.

And yet my 1994 Cadillac Fleetwood was 225.1 inches (18.75 ft).. Still longer than this thing. Damn I miss that car..

Just the tank? When I try to cover the grill with our duvet it’s usually a sleep-on-the-couch night.. worth it..

They’re very yummy and give us a ton of cool shit.. that said, i was around cows on a family farm when i was a kid, and they’re also smart-ish, affectionate to people they know, loyal..not totally useless.. the methane fart greenhouse gas killing beasts would still make good pets if you have a yard big enough..

A stretch? Adhesives, lubricants, paint binders and pigments, tires, soft material dyes, hell, the damn carpet itself, and some plastics all contain animal by products, just to name a few. Leather is what jumps to mind and is what you can see.. poor cow lost it’s skin.. but no one seems to care or remember that hoofs,…

You don’t see the hypocrisy in a so-called vegan considering a Rolls, a larger car that uses more animal by-products in it’s construction and maintenance than say a Prius, or even a Lexus hybrid of you want to get fancy? And by extension the gall of Rolls to attempt to cater to said Vegan?

True.. i have no problem with “as best as I can feasibly do within the society i live in” anything. Vegans included. But from experience, Vegans especially have a holier than thou mentality and try to make you feel guilty about your life choices while ironically wearing shoes from payless held together by adhesives…

Me too.. when it gets cold enough to freeze your nipples off up here in Canuckistan, even at -20C (not sure what that is in Freedom Temp Units), I still grill 2-3 times a week year round. Unless it hit lower than -25, cuz then the grill just won’t hit proper searing temp.

I had some very yummy parts grilling on the bbq a couple of hours ago.. not too long though; when someone asks me how I like my steaks I tend to say “still moo-ing”

Right, I agree, but the Vegan excuse is pure hypocrisy​. In this case they’re trying to cater to a demographic (which, unless they are purely dressed in natural fibers and living in a place like a forest on Borneo living off plants, are just as hypocritical) for  profit. You can’t build a car without animal…
