I love both types of Trek, for different reasons. Modern Trek is great if you want a thrill ride with big battles and emotional stakes. Classic Trek is great for the sheer wonder and sense of adventure that makes space travel so appealing in the first place.

Bones always had a slightly different uniform in TOS as well (usually a shinier fabric with shorter sleeves). Not sure why - I guess because he’s a doctor, Jim, not a bridge officer?

The Undiscovered Country has some good scenes, although it’s a bit uneven. The Final Frontier is an absolute joke from beginning to end (although I do love being able to say “oh yeah, that’s the one where they shoot God in the face with a Klingon Bird of Prey.”

Are you kidding? I love that scene! I was a fan of Star Trek before, but that scene really made me fall in love with the Enterprise, and that version in particular. It turned “oh yeah, that show’s pretty cool” into a lifelong obsession.

The whole “we won’t sell electric cars” thing is peak stupid, but I guess if it gets boomer butts in EV seats, it’s a good thing.

I can’t wait to see the reaction to this from all the dude-bros in the Facebook comments on Ford’s page who can’t stand the Mach-E because it has four doors and a pony badge.

I love those 3-spoke wheels, if only for the sweet, sweet taste of ‘90s nostalgia. They’re the wheel equivalent of “Jazz”, that purple and teal swooshy design that was used to be paper cups.

The car looks good. The weird yellow studio lighting does not.

Oh wow, that is quite a bit smaller! I have seen a few Bronco Sports in traffic - I really like the size of them. A truck that size should be a breath of fresh air.

I know this article is a year old, but I just saw this comment and it may be the single best idea I’ve ever seen, for anything. Grumpy KITT was the best thing about the largely-forgotten 1991 TV movie Knight Rider 2000. (Well, that and James Doohan’s cameo.)

It looks... a lot like a Ranger. So much like a Ranger that I can’t tell how big it actually is from the photo.

It’s for young adults who grew up with the old show. I guess it qualifies as a nostalgia cash grab, but what the heck, I’m always down for some Spencer shenanigans.

I would LOVE a post-Season-4 period piece. Maybe even a 2-part storyline where Michael and KITT vanish under mysterious circumstances while pursuing a particularly diabolical villain, and we resume the story in the present day for their triumphant return.

The “Monster Energy-chugging Cars & Coffee dude-bros” I was referring to aren’t drag racing enthusiasts. They’re talking-shit-about-other-people’s-cars-while-crashing-their-own enthusiasts.

First, I love this. Monster Energy-chugging Cars & Coffee dude-bros will hate on it endlessly for not being a gas-guzzler, but I guarantee none of them can do a quarter mile in the low eights. Even Chevy’s E-COPO isn’t this fast.

Josie and the Pussycats is one of my favorite movies of all time, and it breaks my heart that it doesn’t get more recognition. It’s campy fun by itself, but it’s also a brilliant satire of consumer culture that feels a little heavy-handed now, but was so unusual at the time that it got trashed by numerous critics who

Ehhh... I feel like that’s still just the Bumblebee movie. Don’t get me wrong, Bumblebee was good, but I’d rather have Knight Rider stay its own thing and not become Transformers.

And just like that, I’m no longer interested in the XC40 EV.

DeLorean instantly says BTTF to most people though.

I hate this idea. Also, I love this idea.
