... I miss Fancy Kirsten now.

84 Topaz. If you drove somewhere and didn’t let it cool down for two hours, you had to pour a liter of water on the alternator before it would start.

Eh, cars got bigger. My landlord’s car only fits in the garage if we pull the door out as it comes down - and the car’s an 90s sedan. If the house is from the 40s or earlier, don’t expect the garage to fit anything modern.

Mmm. Bluebird.

The Sidekick is about as capable as any modern SUV, due mostly to insane angles of attack and good ground clearance, even with the four cylinder. It doesn’t have the convertible top, being a 4 seater, and you lose a little capability with the chassis stretch. But it IS a manual, and it IS 4WD.

Another option: Dead battery, charger that isn’t functional. “Yeah, battery died, it’ll be working later.”

Yeah, they closed that loophole. But he did it for _years_, there were a number of those Benzes.

SL55, yep.

It’s not even that: notice that Polestar isn’t using the EPA tested range.

Steve Jobs bought the same car every month or two for decades. That’s why he could drive it with no plates.

Oh, can confirm on this, SO much.

First, holy schnickies, man, you made the H-Wing? You absolute legend.

I just carry an air compressor. Half the time it’s enough to pump up the tire enough to get it to a turnoff where I can change the tire safely.

While you are entirely correct, the land bridge to Alaska doesn’t so much exist anymore, and I was making a bit of a joke.

Ah, the 8th of 7 Bugatti Royales.
