Question: can one truly complete any kind of adventure ride without a recommended H-D service interval interfering?

So this is lighter than the previous ZL1 - but what’s the delta between this and the current hardtop?

No, but people who’d like a German luxury car but cannot afford one will have this on their short list.

And I’ll suggest “Cyberite”. This plays off of sybarite: “a person who is self-indulgent in their fondness for sensuous luxury.”

Question: does it have any autonomous driving capability? I’d like to be able to hide in the back so I’m not seen in it.

IIRC TransTop was never a US option.

No sh*t - it appears to be in a freaking SUV parade, following a Highlander, a Touraeg, Commander, something else, and maybe an FJ in front of that.

That is rad as hell. That 6x6 Merc G Wagen can take a hike.

I don’t think the bulbous Beetle/356/911 top half jives with the new angular lower half in Gen II. Whatever.

Psst...that’s not a topographical map. It’s just a map.

The original drifter.

Yup, as Samantha Bee called her, “Trump 1.0"

Apropos of nothing, I had this deep thought last night while walking my dog in my neighborhood: one (eventual) benefit of the Rise of Autonomous Cars will be the elimination of burnouts and aggressive acceleration. This will be especially welcome considering the bro-dozer crowd, coal-rollers, dipshit Harley owners,…

Surely there is a “fat man” and “little boy” pun to be made here.

Worked at the BMW import lot in Port Hueneme one summer in college. I got to drive most every car that was brought into the US (W of the Mississippi that is) that year. Favorite* one was a three-pedal 530i Touring. IIRC it belonged to a BMW employee who was going to be living in the US for an extended period. She had…

Zero tolerance is my take. Of course people drive with suspended licenses. And these same selfish assholes will continue to do so no matter what the law is. But if it was instilled in everyone that “I might lose my license for life if I drive home like this”, there will be an enormous cultural and behavioral shift.…

This country needs serious drunk driving legislation reform. Get a DUI? Lose your license for life. That will sort some shit out in a hurry. It was never acceptable but nowadays with Lyft, Uber, and you know, regular taxis, it’s completely and utterly BS to head home from the pub full of drink.

Nah, hang him high. The older I get, the less patience I have for selfish people like this. (Patience level is now approximately zero and I’m not even 40 yet.)

I thought it was Carlos Ghosn’s wife’s idea. (Serious.)
