Thank goodness for the Auto Union rings. Otherwise this could be an Avalon, or a recent Hyundai.

This. This is a Camaro hole. I like it. Also functional for when ya need to show off the motor to fellow Jalops. Plenty of room to fumble for the hood release.

I bet you can still see a roof-mounted light bar just fine.

Yeah, gotta say it looks fairly cartoonish. If I was blindfolded and the engine roared to life, that's not the car I'd be picturing in my mind.

He says mo-DAY-na? Ugh.

More Jane's Addiction, too, please.

Directly from the article: "We used disability — the percentage of the population collecting federal disability benefits but not also collecting Social Security retirement benefits — as a proxy for the number of working-age people who don't have jobs but are not counted as unemployed."

Video contributed missed a prime opportunity for a sweet Polka soundtrack.

To me it looks like an overlooked SEMA entry vying for attention.

I bet rappists will snap these up super quick.

I defintely do. It was awesome.

Maybe so but I think he'd be a fool not to offer all of the now-ubiquitous driving "aids" that are expected in any other four-door with a six-figure price tag. So... I think it's a last hurrah for the sake of a last hurrah. "Remember that bonkers car Lutz built before he went out?" Final DESTINOtion!

I don't think there are any holes in your rant; it seems like Lutz is acknowledging that young millenials aren't expected to line up for this car. He's doing this despite them.

Please, Universal, link this to Gone in 60 Seconds (the original of course.).

Some excellent suspension tuning there... I think that's what saved him.

Ah - my bad. He has had only EXTs, so he started with a Gen II. Gen I and IV don't have pickup variants.

I lol'd. Why DO people do that?

I'll take a Sprinter: less money, better mileage, way more space, can stand up in it. Why tow a boat when you can put it in the back? /sarcasm

My dad learned the hard way that the sidewalls of a tire on a 20" rim aren't to the rigors of much of anything. Flatted last year in Ensenada while running support for the Baja 1000. He shoulda swapped wheels before heading south...

My question: are the seats improved from Gen II? Pops says the Gen I seats were better, though they were not heated and cooled. Also, tell us about the CUE experience. I drove the Gen I truck and thought the nav/distraction screen was too effin' bright at night. Tell us about ride quality with the big wagon wheels.…
