Yeah, I’m looking at the impact frames and the nose gets crunched up but that’s all empty space and radiator. Car could probably have limped home before the second impact.

It really depends on _when_ the salvage title was applied. If it was three-four years ago, and it’s been registered for more than a year since, NP. If this thing just came out of salvage, CP. 

If memory serves it was ‘these two things tend to be paired but not always’. Can’t honestly say. 

I will say that ‘Soul Crystal’ red they have sells people on the premium bit. It’s a _very nice_ red.

This is true, this is true. 

Praise goodness for that. I mean vertical stacks don’t _have_ to be for coal rolling, but 90% of the ones I’ve seen that weren’t on a Dodge LR Express were in Texas.

I feel like you could get slightly more Texas by adding vertical exhaust stacks, and the ability to roll coal, but I really appreciate the slightly metaphoric and much more dangerous truck nuts.

In NYC, they let (specified) hybrids and electrics use the HOV lane. I appreciate that. It gets the Priuses out of the left hand lane, and honestly HOV saves gas, hybrids save gas, it makes sense. 

A winner! 

Hm. Does it have the oil cooler? If you can find one, memory says it’s worth adding to the old girl. (Came with the tow package, I’m pretty sure, so you just have to find a junker with that and pull it.)

I’m a decade older, and everything you said held true for me, too.

JEEP.

There’s offroad and then there’s deep soil. The rubber technology wasn’t there to make a reliable tire for these things so they just went with ‘front end digs in and turns, rear end pushes’ and doubled down on it. At 2 mph, it’s survivable. 

I went with an Ovation Celebrity. It’s a dreadnought. They didn’t make many of those, but they’re... powerful. Most Ovations are skinny things, this one’s full depth and it will _wake_ the room.

It’s not a secondary product - because, after all, Yamaha’s symbol is three tuning forks, but man, I love my Yamaha amp. And it’s true Yamaha doesn’t make many cars, but they make the engines for ones we love, from the Taurus SHO to my Matrix XRS to the Lotus Elise to the Lexus LFA to the Toyota 2000GT.

The Fordson tractor: it may have changed the world as much as the Model T, and should be appreciated.

Cybertruck theoretically has a 500 mile range. That being said, I have hopes for Dr. Goodenough’s glass battery tech which will increase charging speed, remove fire concerns, double capacity...

Y’know whut? That’s racin!

Something objectively better than my WRX for only slightly more. 400 mile range, 4WD, seats five, good performance and handling, good cargo capacity.
