is there a faucet near the front wheel?

An interesting choice of wording, awesome.  Because nobody really used or overused that word until Nissan applied it to the Z car ad campaign. Then it was used to describe everything, supplanting great.

Your tax dollars at work, making a small fortune in racing, as they say.

let’s hope it rains shit.

rugged individualists are quickly becoming embarrased intubatists.

i kind of thought Trail-rated meant nothing.

Remove rust, habitat restored, David sees rabbits.

These were cool, in their way, but in my mind only worth about 1/ 10th as much at this point, for a really nice one like this? Collectable? Were they rare? Beautiful? Could they outcompete an STI? Feh.  You could by a turbo 2002 for less, and those are historic and I’ve never seen one on the road.

Looks great!  Just needs the badge on the door.

The Dakotas were my favorite- not too big, but solid and a little extra room inside. I won’t miss the 1st two generations of Colorados- just cheap, crappy trucks. One station had a Unimog, for some reason, which I loved seeing, but never got to drive. It may have been surplussed and used for snowplowing at the…

Suburbans and sedans tend to be in better shape when sold at auction, because they aren’t usually used as summer field crew rigs. They used to get traded out for auction at 50k miles, but as dependability increased now go at 75-100k miles. That sounds low, but these are FS miles, which are brutal, bad dirt roads,…

Other than made to order fire engines and crew buggies, most manufacturers won’t make the green anymore, so almost all vehicles are now arriving in white.  Better resale value, but sadly missing something.

when I read that Sierra Nevada Pale Ale came in 2nd in most rankings, which I’ve always liked and costs half as much and is available everywhere, I lost all interest in the Pliny (only 2 per customer!).  

good reviews in Consumer Reports too.

When I talked to a local shop about buying from Tire Rack they were discouraging somehow- either claiming they charged more to install or that warranty support was limited or something. Maybe they were just a grumpy mechanic?

is that a jump or what happens when you put the pedal down?

i turn in coal rollers when i can.  It’s like taking a thousand diesel Jettas off the road!

hopefully we have finally reached past peak grill, and designers will come to their senses. Let Acura, Chevrolet, BMW, Lexus, Toyota, and others do better.

campagnolos.....mmmmm. I just saw a Pantera in some. Mmmmmm. So right.

Think of the construction jobs this person created! Nope, rich people have too much damn money and spend it on stupid shit. That stupid shit could have fed, housed, healed, and educated people. It could have protected land. Conspicuous consumption is gross.
