He is a hardline conservative on most issues who is certainly more in favor of boots-on-the-ground interventionism than the mainstream, but he’s not a “shut down the government” guy, nor is he a bigot or a cretin. Yes, he holds Republican party line positions on every issue, and no, I don’t agree with any of them. But…

It’s cray to think that 15-20 years ago, this probably would have been funny to a lot of people, and the announcers might have even joked about it.
Jesus! If the car wasn't there to stop him, would he have just flown right off the mountain?
Man, it sure would be nice if you could buy direct from the factory at that factory pricing, rather than having to negotiate a higher price from a middle man who really ends up doing nothing for you other than trying to sell you rust proofing and paint protection packages.
The car that does the most work in the least amount of time wins. That’s the definition of power, so, no, torque doesn’t win drag races, power does. Torque is just a matter of gearing, so, my 1.8l 4-cyl can make a million lb-ft of torque at the wheels if I gear it that way, but it’s still not going to win any races.
Due to gerrymandering, Iceland and Beverly Hills are now in same voting district
This does not bode well for the Horsepower Kingdom. The Court of the Horsepower Kings must be nervous.
Wouldn't it be the track surface and the grip of the tire that does that?
It's a monitor, not a stripper...
Actually, the declining sales should rove to them that a change is needed. How easy would it be for them to slap a turbo on and sell a ton? The problem, it seems to me, is that everyone knows there has to be a better one coming eventually, and no one wants to pull the trigger now and be left with the underpowered…
He prefers external combustion
What a modern four-cylinder turbo engine does is force denser and colder air into that cylinder at a higher compression, yielding an explosion that's just as big but uses less fuel. That's a bit of a simplification, but you get the idea.

As a technician, I LOVE computerized cars. So much easier to pin point a fault - in that the car will tell me what's going on. Of course, I have various dealer level scan tools for different european brands that I snagged on eBay for under $100 a piece. All you need to fix a car is a tool box, a laptop, and the right…
Actually, for the lay man, this is pretty true. I don't know many people that can afford a $5,000 scan tool. These days diagnosis and repair isn't about being able to clear a code, it's about finding why a code has set. And I don't know how much time you've spent under a new car's hood as compared to an old one, but…
Well, I'm a redditor so check that off, atheist... another check mark, and... I think this guy is an amazing person. I won't get into why I'm an atheist or my thoughts on that but I will say if a man in the sky is the reason this guy grew a giant set of balls and stepped up when nobody else would then dammit... we…
To be fair... I don't think anyone took too much issue with the Aztec as it was actually designed by the designers. It's what it turned into after all the bean counters and committee members were through with it that was an abomination. I'm willing to bet that the designers hated what appeared on showroom floors…
If you're going to make a sexist joke, at least make it funny.
