I think I’m going to be sick.
Can I get out of here before they build a wall all the way around this shithole?

The interior looks just as dated to me. Sure it has today’s requisite screens and gadgets, but overall it has kind of a late-80s Oldsmobile Delta 88 vibe.

You keep leaving out the word “affordable.”
Isn’t enough *affordable* housing. If they had built more *affordable* apartments.

Why would more housing ever drive up costs?
When the more housing is exclusively more costly.

Let’s say my suburban rent has gradually increased from $750 to $950 in the last 12 years. Suddenly there’s a construction frenzy and a bunch of new high-end apartments go up half a mile away. They are marketed to folks

Nope. None of that worked either.

Wow, this takes me back. I dearly miss my ‘87 Civic Si. Quick, fun, & economical. The unboosted steering was laser-precise and the clutch and shifter were perfection. I moved across the country and back with everything I owned in the Civic’s cargo hold. Unfortunately once the rust started, there was no stopping it.

Estimating the position of the driver’s eyeballs wouldn’t be nearly good enough. You’d end up with the dark spot obscuring people’s vision. You’d need extremely accurate tracking that would keep up with every motion of the driver’s head.

Any time I’m an in airport shuttle like this, the wheelchair lift bangs and rattles so much it’s like riding in toolbox mounted to a paint mixer. This conversion adds an actual toolbox to the mix. Prepare to drive with earplugs in.

I’ve learned to get Pawz on my dog with my fingers easily enough, but for those having trouble the Pawz folks have come up with Pawz Jawz to help with bootie application.

Now playing

The fake wheelie was dumb, but there are some impressive shots earlier in the sequence. Here you go:

What’s a “siv”?

FAKE NEWS.

Exhibit A.) There’s no steam coming from the bowl of water that he’s holding bare-handed. There’s no steam when it hits the windshield.

Exhibit B.) Driving a Neon and belonging to a car enthusiast group?

I seem to remember Cumberford being regretful of the flat windshield and upright A-pillars. I wish I still had that issue of Automobile to look up why. May have been cost-prohibitive to create a one-off custom windshield from scratch.

Seems like it would have been so easy, too: just make that rear window follow the other lines on the car.

Unfortunately that combination is not available.

“...including veteran Houston [police officer] Steve Perez...”

Not its fault, but it seems the Challenger is becoming a tribal emblem. It’s like the lifted coal-rolling bro-dozer truck of cars.

I’m recently noticing more and more of the formerly invisible Rendezvous, because they all seem to be piloted by the most uncoordinated, indecisive, timidly inept nitwits on the road. I’m assuming they have been passed down to second or third owners at this point. What is it about the Rendezvous that attracts the
