I think every Ford and Chrysler made in the last 4 years or newer comes with one. I have a feeling a funnel is becoming more standard. Which, to me, is a really odd thing to become standard.

I’m an average middle class 30-something. I have a decent credit score. When I went to go buy my first new car I shopped around until the cows came home and not one lending institution would let me borrow any amount of money for a term less than 72 months. As far as term lengths go, from my personal experience,…

IMO VW missed the boat spectacularly to repair it’s image with buyers everywhere, let alone in North America. Not once since this scandal has been going on have I seen one ad, or TV spot, where a VW exec. stood up and apologized for what has happened, and promised to make things right. I know there’s been little…

Oh you guys aren’t even trying. Here’s what Chevrolet stands for: Cheap Hardly Efficient Virtually Runs On Luck Every Time.

This must be a big city issue. Lived in Denver, Phoenix, LA, and Cleveland. This was a common sight. At least once a week or more, someone got hit by a train in the city. I watched people just pass directly in front of trains like they thought the train would stop. In every city, every day.

I did the same.... it’s absolutely insane. Then about a week later I saw the exact truck I configured on the road. King Ranch, all the options, and so-on. Then it occurred to me that after tax, title, dealer security package (which I could see the truck had from the window etching), and who knows what other dealer…

I had many triggers for panic attacks, but driving on the highway was the absolute worst. I would shut down just approaching an on ramp. What you’re experiencing is very normal and happens to many people - if you take comfort from numbers. Here’s what I did to help, and I hope it helps you too. I took 1 Tylenol PM…

I had pretty severe panic attacks. I overcame them for the most part and I rarely ever think about them anymore. I’m not sure if this will help anybody or not. What I did was track what caused my panic attacks - and yes a lot were completely random. But when I had a good trend I started to work on it. What I did was…

Well.... I LOL’d anyway.

There’s always something to report in Phoenix - which is why they report LA news now, you know.... to make things seem less worse in Phoenix...

I’m not sure everybody realizes what this is. This has to be the rarest vehicle on earth - and a desirable vehicle at that. What makes it so rare? It’s rust free - that’s it. I can’t remember the last time I saw one with zero rust, let alone look this good. I think the price is justified.

It’s nice to see someone with the power to - absolutely make another person’s day. Wish it happened more. The closest thing I have experienced is I was checking out a Porsche 911 (vintage, not sure what year) and Henry Winkler (the Fonz for you youngins) walked up and asked if I liked it. It was his, needless to say,…

Willing to bet the tub cracked. A very common problem on Panteras - which may explain why they pulled the engine. Tub repairs aren’t cheap, but yeah, you still would have turned a profit even after having the tub fixed and buying a 351C crate engine. Sorry to hear that man!

When I lived in Canton, Ohio, there was a high-end dealership that had not one, but two - count ‘em - two Vector W12s sitting in the showroom. I used to drive by to and from work just to look at them. Well the business changed hands and the place emptied out - except these two lonely Vectors which sat there gathering…

Same situation with an original Mini or Lotus 7. Neither were particularly nice, nor were they all that reliable, or built with the highest standards, but my god if you try to buy a decent one of either of those vehicles will you be in for sticker shock. Meanwhile people are practically giving away Triumphs and MGs.

Flew Delta for business many times. I have many very similar stories to this. I’ve slept in the Atlanta airport many times because instead of helping stranded Delta passengers, the Delta reps had a habit of disappearing until people gave up and dispersed on their own. I watched it happen, every single time. It goes…

Flew for business for 4 years - many times a year. This was just a couple years ago when I left that job. Delta was by far the worse. I mean they were so bad that it was pretty much intentional. Somehow things like flights arriving an hour late - despite all other arrivals on time - and lost luggage, no help…

Good article. I will say pulling a bench up to the power rack at a gym is a fantastic way to find out who the regular a-holes are at that gym. Before I pieced together a home gym over the years, I went to a few different gyms (over time, changing from one to the next), and there was more than one occasion where…

I wonder if he’s going to try to go full autonomous, with just a simple steering wheel - nothing fancy - for when driving is required. Why no gauges? Because the car will refuse to exceed a certain speed on certain roads. Think of it like augmented driving. You can take control, but only to get the car somewhere it…

Pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude - halfway through the clip.
