I’ve traveled to many of the mega cities pictured, and live in one that not too long ago had all the same problems as in the developing world, but now has stopped growing (so fast) and is becoming more and more wealthy, and thus less chaotic. Places like NY, Paris and London were once dystopian nightmares, but now are…

His body was found in the hatch, without a glow in the dark emergency release he had no chance. RIP.

I remember my parents owning one of these in the mid 90's, briefly. They were shocked by its terrible gas mileage, all the creaks and rattles, and the horrible interior packaging that left it seeming cramped compared to a previously owned Honda Civic Wagon. When asked why on earth they bought it then, it was simple…

Covid19 has expanded the art of internet pedantry a billion-fold. 

Speaking of Alien, H.R. Giger is from Switzerland, and his old castle has been made over into a museum filled with his sexy nightmares. Perhaps this was his car!

I do have an ad blocker, but who doesn’t? I would assume they’d simply embed the ads in the videos somehow so you’d have no choice. Seems like the advertisers maybe aren’t getting what they paid for - I’m not complaining though :)

I watch Doug’s videos often and never see any ads, except his plugs for his own Cars & Bids. How is this possible? Am I just somehow lucky to never get any advertising? I don’t pay YouTube anything either.

I can’t figure out how they make this kind of money, I rarely ever see an ad on YouTube, who’s giving them all the cash?!?

1990, eight years of Reagan and two of Poppy Bush. Evangelical Christians and tsk-tsking from the “Moral Majorty” was at an apex, you had to watch the smell of your shits lest someone in power be offended. But it was fine to laugh at anyone different from the 2.5 kid white suburban household.

Jackaroo?!? That is a fantastic SUV name! 

“But I could if I wanted to” should be worked into the Constitution, because it explains so much about the bizarre customs of this country.

And Jesus wept.

Only because one company has a monopoly, it’s made from plastic after all. It’s the same reason Rolex tool watches are so ridiculously expensive, brand name and artificial scarcity.

Blame Fiat and Audi, they started the whole damn trend in the 80's.

Give ‘em Helvetica!

LOL, “now” was very absent in the 1980's!

I’m not really sure this car was a good idea in 1977. Seems its main claim to fame is an old, mustachioed fellow peddling reverse mortgages to your grandparents. And now James May. Nope, not sure it’s a good idea at all.

And you probably don’t even have to push the throttle pedal a full six inches for it to vaguely jerk forward. Pure luxury!

That accent (not the Brit narrator)! Is it just me or have so many strange, interesting American accents just disappeared over the past few decades? It’s fascinating to listen to all the contortions and tongue flips, moreso than that damn siren. Lots of towns had some type of siren long before the Cold War anyway, so…

That has always cracked me up. But then being a NY’er I do know CT isn’t all WASPS and private golf courses, some of it is downright homespun!
