I had not 1 but 2 Chevy Spectrum turbos after a 1985 Chevy Spectrum. One was an 1986 I blew the engine in after an upcoast trip to Cocoa Beach with no oil apparently. (friend was driving it home and I was asleep when it threw a rod) The second was a 1987 that I hit a parked car that was sticking out in the street…

This.

Exactly part of the issue, too many people are too lazy to walk a few blocks, even if that’s part of the point of a downtown area.

“Crony capitalism” is just capitalism.

The cutest trend are the Japanese Kei truck gardens. I’m not sure if it has a formal name but it gives other drivers something pleasant to look at while stuck in traffic.

Wife and I were going to go have dinner on Grand Ave in St Paul. Relatively dense old urban area. Lot was full, street was full, urban area that surrounded it was all parking restricted to residents only. Went to the mall and the first ring suburb and had dinner there.

In Charlotte, the city council recently allowed one developer to build an apartment complex that doesn’t have any parking at all. That means more units for people to live in and lower construction costs, which the developer says should save residents $250 per month.

The entire country is going off the rails in order to make shareholders happy, why should this be any different?

Pulling up to work with a cartoon, teenaged school girl on my truck at my high school teaching job. That’ll be fine 

Can't watch it now, but will. The Parisienne was a Canadian market product for decades.  Canadian Pontiacs were essentially Chevys with Pontiac bodies, as was this. When Pontiac quit the full size B body (81?) they renamed the G body LeMans as Bonneville. Dealers and old timers screamed that there wasn't a full size…

Dude in the video is 26. Everyone looked old as shit in the 80s. Coke and nuclear paranoia. 

Throughout the interior there are a whole lot of plastics, but instead of trying to hide them away, Hyundai decided to highlight them. In fact, a Hyundai designer said the automaker was trying to “celebrate” plastics inside the car. It mostly works.

Hyundai can say their quality is better but then the Santa Cruz DCT has a recall and another for the trailer wiring catching on fire.

considering the Hyundai starts at 36k and Mav at 21K that’s the initial quality you’re buying.

People have always been this way. They just whispered their awful thoughts to their “friends” in their basement. Now they feel emboldened to say terrible things in the open. The anonymity of the Internet likely has something to do with it but people are saying these things out loud, non-anonymously and often in…

Don’t tell anyone else, but I’m starting to question if capitalist corporate law is really helpful to society. Thinking maybe not.

always a funko shred truther in the mix.

RIP In Peace to the goat vehicle
