I was way too small for a family of five especially being a two door car that was hard to get in and out of the back seat. It was a constant complaint from my step mom. We almost traded to a Dodge Colt 4-door wagon which was really a slightly larger Mitsubishi vehicle badged as a Colt but my father got a sweet deal on…

My last new car: 2008 Mustang

This was the family car from 1978–1980.

You lose credibility when you state that the Bronco II is a shortened full-sized Bronco when in fact it was based on a shortened Ranger. 

This is what I think of every time I see the name Polestar. Perhaps this should be the vehicle logo and hood ornament...

My grandparents went from a 1973 Cadillac Sedan de Ville to a 1979 Chevette 4-door hatchback base model no AC. Their reasoning was the Cadillac was getting “old” and costing too much in fuel. Road trips with them in that Chevette were miserable.

You can't go wrong with a Toyota Matrix or Pontiac Vibe. 

Volkswagen Not-That-Damned-Thing

Electrocuted in a redneck swimming pool with a tarp liner in the bed filled with water.

There were too many vehicle which could not be debossed because they were badge engineered. However the one car that should have been debossed was the Neon...

Most sedans were two-box before the 1940s before enclosed trunks started extending from the rear end. 

It’s repairable but it's a 2003 car I paid $1500 for and the repairs exceed what I paid for it. 

I never felt power deprived driving my Matrix XR even though it wasn’t the fastest version. It consistantly got 27–30 mpg in the city.

Toyota kept begging me to get the 2nd airbag recalls done. I guess I don’t have to worry about that now. The collision was low speed and the hitch on the back of a large SUV did most of the damage as the back end of it rode above my front bumper impact bar and smashed the radiator into the engine.

I died inside when I totaled my Matrix this past February. I’ll never get over the loss.

Rain-X will be happy to sell you a set of wiper blades you can leave the yellow shipping guards on as well. They just won’t wipe your windshield worth a fuck.

People would leave those on too.

Which is not allowed for export countries. Instead the lenses are clear with the outboard flashing in amber and the center+inner lighting in red.

Those amber turn signals on those Oldsmobiles and other GM cars originated as required equipment on export cars, mostly ones for New Zealand. In many cases like this Olds 88 and a 88-91 Cadillac Eldorado ETC, they used the export taillamps with amber as a model update for North American market vehicles.
