I suppose there’s some possibility that an Ocean will grow in value over time as an automotive oddity and rarity. But something like $30K is a big bet on that possibility.

Depending on what your travel plans are, you could also save on the cost of a hotel room.

I’ve thought that social platforms should have two sets of user profiles, one with verified identities and the other anonymous. Then, all users of the platform would have the option of ignoring all anonymous users. It won’t stop people from being ugly online, but least it would tamp down the attention one can get by…

Sheridan started out with such great promise, but it’s been a steady slide down from Hell and High Water.

I think that the “chick car” notion comes from the cuteness of Miatas, especially the first gen. In a world of butch-looking, squared-off SUVs and pickups, the size and curves of a Miata just seem feminine.

One good reason to select particular spots is other amenities, like toilets, food, etc. I went to the Indy area yesterday, and saw plenty of people using roadside embankments and the like. But I assume that those were locals, who could head home for those needs. And believe me, bathrooms were in short supply all along…

To point out that he received no significant inconvenience for his extremely dangerous behavior. Any other citizen that threw a chair onto a busy sidewalk from 60 feet up would face more severe treatment, most certainly waiting for bail to be set at a pre-trial hearing. And if that citizen was not a white guy, there’s…

Have you ever seen the movie Capricorn One?

Wallen was booked at Metro Jail just after midnight and released a few hours later.

My favorite Beetle kit was a replacement hood and trunk lid that made it look like a Morris Minor.

I saw my first Crown in the wild a couple of weeks ago. It was just distinctive enough that I immediately knew it was something different from all of the other CUVs on the highway. Nice looking, but as soon as sales pick up they will blend in like all the rest.

Having seen what was originally released, I would be interested in seeing it. It always seemed like there was a better film that could have been shown given some of the scenes that were included, especially young Malcolm’s. But I sure as hell don’t want to see it sitting in a theatre with a bunch of people getting…

That decaptitation scene still haunts my nightmares.

Formal jean jacket was quite a thing in the 70's. I had one, too, but not as nice as Bob’s. You shoulda been there.

I salute your devotion to willing a Turner D. Century movie into existence, but I truly fear the impact it would have if it ever happened. The End Wokeness crowd would use it to propel their efforts to undo decades of social progress.

Actually, I think the hump is integral to its charms.

I think that a lot of it is around brand. I, too, bought a Subaru without any weasel actions from the dealership. But going into a Hyundai dealership during that same shopping window was totally different. Simply walking in was unpleasant, and the whole experience was very much the stereotypical crude and hard sell.

I’ll bet that these are the same people that blame Biden for inflation raising the price of eggs, and that’s why they’re going to vote for Trump.

Yes, The A/V Club and The Takeout were sold recently.
