We are getting the Transit Connects as our old Chevy vans age out. I must admit that we have taken a couple up some pretty rough terrain-twice up to cell towers we list as ‘4wd site’.

I will: I finally got my right back : got the letter 3 days after registration closed for the 2016 election. Moved 2 weeks ago and just last nite found the voter registration change-of-address I had picked up prior.

I live a couple hours from C-ville and work there occasionally. I’d like to say I gleefully punched the dash when I heard this sentence, but, truthfully, I whispered something like, ‘Well, that’s about right, fuckhead.” He will never get to endanger anyone else with a car, anyway. I wonder if he is being lionized on…

Good to see Stef’s name on the byline again-no matter how it gets there. Keep the faith, lady. 

The word privilege comes from Latin: privis lex. Meaning, ‘private law’

So, you met a vicar with a side gig drawing for a British marque, and you didn’t even ask him about Lucas?

Thank you. I watched every single episode over the winter 2 years ago, and became increasingly meh about Roadkill. The lack of give-a-damn in the MCM episode was enough for me to stop caring at all.

I highly recommend Graystillplays playing My Summer Car. Guy has a wicked sense of humour and an interesting turn of phrase. Perfect for killing hours while puny from sickness or during nasty weather

I agree: take it down until they can update it. I didn’t know him, nor do I ride, but I feel the loss nonetheless: we’re all ( on two, or four- or even more- wheels ) trying to push just a little harder, be faster through the corner, or climb a little higher, and our ranks are diminished by his passing
