LOL, 45MPH is Universal Iowa Speed. Doesn’t matter what you’re driving, or where, 45 is how fast you go. Pickup pulling a wagon loaded with hay bales? Station wagon full of kids heading home? Parallel parking a combine? 45 gits ‘er done!

I daily’d my 944 for over fifteen years, had fewer problems with it than I’ve had with my Outback. Just sayin’...

Or a similar-vintage 944 with the requisite parts car to go along with it.

Buddy of mine mounted one of these on his CBX back in the 80s. Kind of twitchy to get set up correctly (it used mercury tubes are different angles to measure deceleration), but worked a treat once it was.

Are you still driving a car if you have a chauffeur?

So, basically, if I hijacked a city bus, a little slice-n-dice and I could afford a couple of these. Got it.

I suggest we now refer to Swiss cheese as “speed hole cheese”.

DAAAAAADDDDYYY! I need an advance on my allowance!

Just buy Michigan. Problem solved.

The bulk of Porsche’s sales are the Cayenne and Macan. If they had to depend on just the 911 the company would have foundered years ago. There’s also the Boxster and Cayman at the “entry level”.

Who let the Tumblrina in?

Am I the only one who thinks the new GT is butt-ugly? Like, literally -- the front looks good, but that whole flying-buttress thing in the back just looks bad and wrong. Anyone? Just me?

the Ranger would flop because a whole lotta people think “bigger is better” and would just go straight to the F150.

The Bolt and Leaf are also not very hot sellers. I don’t think that people who are looking for cheap cars are considering electric.

Also too bad he made it out of wood and thin aluminium sheet with canvas for the roof -- good luck getting insurance on that!

Can confirm, was quite puzzled over the number of “public nuisance” changes reported on the police blotter. Then I happened to speak with a cop about it and learned they were virtually all for traffic stops or noise complaints where they smelled or saw someone smoking weed.

Hey, not everyone can be Subaru and just give people brand new vehicles and scrap the defective ones!

How many speeds did you get it up to in reverse?

As is the kuru.

For me, it’s because I can’t stand FWD, and RWD cars are thin on the ground (and mostly out of my budget).
