Yeah, I know what you mean about Renault’s crossovers. I saw them all over the place in Lima, Peru a couple of months ago. In fact, they’re nearly indiscernible from Nissan products. So why buy a Renault?

Don’t bother entertaining fantasies of Renault branded products being sold in the U.S. It’s not as if Fiat-branded products are flying out the doors of your friendly neighborhood Dodge/Ram/Chryser/Jeep/Fiat store. 

You’d shower after getting to work in the morning. Then you’d ride home. It’s 93F. You’re going to shower when you get home, too. 

It’s ugly. There for it’s priceless, meaning I wouldn’t put a price on it. At all. 

Even more fun is that when the next hurricane bears down on Tampa Bay, I-275 will be the main route out of town. As for bicycling up and down a boulevard? Well, it sounds nice until you step outside in the morning, get on your bicycle, and it’s already 82F with 78 percent humidity. Oh, sure, they can install showers…

That’s a fun idea. Obviously, if one looked at a map, one would see that the only way to drive around the City of Tampa is by boat.

The biggest obstacle for a buyer to get a “plug-in hybrid” is convenient charging. So that means charging at home. So how expensive will it be to install a charger that can charge a plug-in hybrid overnight? That’s your variable.

The doors on a Nash Metropolitan, as stamped out at the factory and prior to being fitted for hinges and locks, are identical. The left door and right door are the same door. Yeah Nash!

The problem with CarMax or other similar dealers who will ship you a car from another lot is the smell. I briefly worked at a Manheim auction and can tell you, first hand, there are a lot of cars that look great inside and out, but when you open the door, you’ll get knocked over by 18 different flavors of funk. Don’t…

I’m not holding my breath waiting for Peugeot.

Twitter will go the way of MySpace, GeoCities, Prodigy, GEnie, CompuServe, AOL’s chat, and Apple’s iVillage. Just give it time. 

Sorry vintage bones, you’re incorrect about the first Celica’s handling. I put 100,000 miles on mine. It’s front mid-engine, like a Miata. It has great balance. The worst thing anyone could say about it was that it wasn’t fast. The second worst thing they could say was the worm & roller steering was kind of numb.…

None of the gears particularly worries me. Take a trip into a foreign country, especially one where European, American, Japanese and Korean vehicles compete with Chinese products. You’ll see that GM is in the fight of it’s life. The future for Detroit’s Big 3 isn’t in commodity-priced cars and SUVs. It’s in setting…

Port of Newark where cars from all over the world are imported into the US. 

No. Next question...

I resided in New Jersey for 12 years. Trust me, it’s all related. 

I think that’s true. During the recession, I used to see a car fire just about every time I got on the Garden State Parkway. 

I resided in New Jersey for 12 years. During the recession, I used to see about one car fire a week, usually on the Garden State Parkway. I wonder why...

And we can officially welcome back the “waterfall grille.”

Oldsmobile, always one step ahead!
