GRRR!!! RAHHHH!! GET OUT OF MY WAY!!! Never understood how people can get so upset at something so trivial in life. How hard is it to just enjoy the drive? Every time I see people in the passing lane tailgating and freaking out over the tiny amount of time they think they could be saving due to another driver I just…

The Miata fandom is... just astonishing. It’s actually not that bad here. But holy wow I’ve never seen a car like this Fiat get so much hate from such a narrow niche of people before on the ‘net. You have a focused laser beam of seething hate, then literally everybody else...

This is 100% the truth. I went without a bed liner for almost 3 months after I bought my truck, thinking I didn’t want to cover the paint. Went and bought some basic stuff at Home Depot, like compost, culking, typical spring home stuff, nothing too crazy. Got home and noticed little scratches in the paint. I realize I…

The question of non-metal materials for use in engine blocks and heads goes way back. However, as far as I’m aware, the problems associated with using carbon, ceramic, or other compounds, was never overcome. For instance, steel, iron, and aluminum machine easily, whereas composite, carbon, or ceramic compounds do not,…

The rust is really confusing. In Phoenix you see junkers with missing paint that don’t have that much surface rust. It’s not all that bad, but this thing had to of lived in a more humid environment before Vegas. Anyway, CP, too much money, not collectible enough to make it worth it.... yet.

Considering it called the desert home for a couple decades, that’s pretty awful. Which.... come to think of it is why you don’t see these anymore in any place with humidity above 5%....

Citroen Cactus. It’s real and the door padding is real too. It has some insanely good reviews in Europe. I would buy one here, if they were sold here, for the simple fact that my truck is riddled with dents down both sides and not one of them was caused by me.

5th Gear: Does anybody have stats for Bob’s car yet? I’m wondering how much weight they saved by ditching the batteries and electric motors. The Karma’s weight is simply mind boggling, even if you understand why it weighs 5,300lbs...

Ugh, I can’t wait for this ultra aggressive movement to die. Even the frickin Prius looks like it wants to murder someone now. It just looks like every person behind the wheel of nearly every new car is compensating for something. No class, no style.

Ah the internet, the source of all assumptions based on little information. It looks like folks assume two things: one the rider couldn’t handle the bike, and two, he shouldn’t have owned the bike because it wasn’t a bike they would own (aka a lighter bike). However, in reality we don’t know what happened. Maybe this…

The weight of the bike, surprisingly, as little to do with it. For instance, a hiker fell and broke their leg a few days ago here, and nobody found them until this morning, because they were immobile. It had nothing to do with anything on top of them. They were simply immobile.

A good portion of Audi’s demographic would never buy a car that looked like that.

First thing I thought of as well - the Fusion-like front end.

Confirmed. Navy are reporting it was a fatal crash, unfortunately - although news outlets appear to be mixed in that reporting.

I owned a small bookstore years ago. It was shortly after Yelp launched and I didn’t even know what it was at the time. Well, one year we had a violent storm roll through the city, and golf ball sized hail broke out my store windows and subsequently caused flooding and damage. The day after the storm moved out I was…

Oh I bet Vettel and Hamilton would have gotten kicked if they were in the same circumstance as Rossi - little known name, no brand value, too much of a rookie, too early in the career. Yeah, if they were put in the same spot as Rossi was early in their careers they would have gotten kicked. Don’t pretend F1 runs on…

Every maker has a big highway bike. To lead them all is still an accomplishment. You’re correct, it’s only part of the whole market. But downplaying it is like saying Tesla isn’t significant because they’re only the leader in the electric car segment.

I’ve owned both. First bike was an XS750, restoring an XS850 now.

Super-dumbass-troll 5000. I wonder when they went on sale? I heard they were in the works, but last I saw the super-dumbass-troll 5000 release date hadn’t been announced.
