The 245 in Grynch’s “My Volvo”

This is why I don’t want to go adventure scooting: trail obstacle frequency transmitted directly into spinal column.

Another disappointment that I have to mention: how did the C-130 explode into the Afghan mountainside at the end of the final chase if it was out of fuel?

Second this. I can’t stand Roger Moore one bit.

Yup. 100 or 200 series FTW.

If I had to buy new, it’d be a highroof Sprinter for weekend fun, and a Model S for most everything else.

Judging from ticket receipts of $26M, people really aren’t drawn to this. I personally can’t stand Henry Cavill. Man of Steel was just plain awful. I blame him. Not Ritchie.

Indeed it does, inside and out.

I like to think of WWII as the Cambrian Explosion of aircraft development: so many planes in such a remarkably short period of time.

Ah that’s more likely.

Wow - you’re not kidding! I never thought to check Wikipedia for a List of James Bond vehicles.

The Vantage Volante from The Living Daylights does it for me.

I’d like to offer this up as a potential nominee for best-looking stepside: from CHiPs, Jon Baker’s stepside. Also note roll bar and blue alloy wheels. Tres cool.

By installing taillamps from the empty-nester Solara, I think.

I *just* saw a Ranger Splash yesterday for the first time in ages and thought, “wow that’s not that bad looking.” Bizarre.

Thanks! I’ve always thought the Prowler got a bad rap.

This could be a critique of the T-Bird of the same era. While it did have a V8, it was a detuned V8, and also lacked a third pedal and any sports coupe potential. And the T-Bird had the classy foam visible in its grille while the Prowler sported the mandated forward nerf bars.

When I was 13, my dad delivered my grouchy ass to school on a Yamaha FJ1200.

Wow. Cool stuff! The only thing I can offer is the MacGyver episode that liberally borrowed clips from The Italian Job. (Thief of Budapest, Season 1)

The Ford Tuareg post from earlier this week supports that!
