Possibly shaped like one of these…

No. Hysteria and alarmism about ClimateChange™ is caused by a brain-invading parasite. That’s the only possible explanation.

I can’t imagine that any state that actually has highway safety laws is going to allow a vehicle on the road that lacks windshield wipers.

It’s kind of a complicated thing, inspections in the states. Cars are viewed as more of a basic requirement because of the way our infrastructure is constructed. Lack of public transportation and long distances between residential places and places people work have resulted in inspections being politically unpopular.…

I lived in MI (where David lives) for a bit, and they have no inspection or smog laws/regulations. When I registered my new to me car there, they never even looked at it. They just took my ID, paperwork, charged me taxes and fees, and gave me plates. So, registering his slow devil was just as easy.

LOL.

Fully checked by the DMV? Here in Michigan, the DMV thinks your car is comprised entirely of the title and registration. Beyond that, it may as well not exist.

Most Coastal states require a yearly inspection and would almost certainly not allow a rusted Jeep like this to stay on the road, The middle of the country, not so much.

Kit cars and custom fabricated vehicles are the only ones that get inspected (because ya know... home made chassis...) but any vehicle that was street legal in the US is street legal in Michigan, provided you, or really, someone, has the vehicle registered and properly titled.

One neighborhood having a higher risk of theft than the other could very well contribut to higher premiums. The same neighborhood might also have an increased risk of someone being involved in an accident with an uninsured driver. I doubt they’re just like “let’s fuck over minorities, whitey gets cheaper premiums”.

WTF!

Yo mama so fat, when she goes to the movies, she sits next to EVERYBODY

Or an old escort in a Ford... wait, no, that seems like a bad idea...

I put dual horns in my Accord for $26. What a difference! That meep-meep shit is for weenies :D

Ah, I suspect that you have never had a bike. It really is great fun and a real committment when done properly - not unlike flying, skydiving or (ahem) auto racing. It’s risky, but nothing ventured, nothing gained. Like those habits, it’s not for old men like me, but I don’t regret a second of it despite my share of…

AND YET.. 80% sold in Europe (and Great Britain) are v8's

In Europe the take rate for the GT is higher than for the EcoBoost. Yeah, surprised Ford, too.

I watched one race last season, and beyond my own laughing at the sounds of the glorified RC cars going around... you could hear the laughs and yawns of the crowd.

Amen. I use my phone for GPS anyways. I don’t need all the crap the car has to offer.

Right. The radio talks to me, I don’t need to talk to it.
