I absolutely second this. The '81 Goldwing I rode (and still have, in pieces) was a really understated bike. The 'in crowd' in my area all ride Harleys (I live near Sturgis, SD), with old geezers riding brand-new Goldwings and the young guys riding sport bikes, but the older touring bikes really get forgotten. …

Development of the Mighty Mite began just after the end of WWII (the Big One) with the intent of providing the U.S. Marines with an ultra-light and compact jeep that could be carried by helicopters to where the shootin' was going on.

ohhhh man I feel so bad for that car. It looks to me like they lost a tie rod, which is totally not a problem, as long as you tow the car forwards, and don't need to turn (it's happened to me a couple times.) Why on earth are they towing it backwards?!

Hey, at least it's not quite so round anymore.

The point that's close the the grille used to be at the bottom, opposite from the outside point; kind of like a human eye with a tear duct. In the new design style, the headlight is wider at the top than the bottom, looking like a person with their eyes half-closed. Kinda makes it look angry.

I've never heard of that vehicle before, but ohhhh man I wouldn't be able to take it seriously. That face.

Man, I want one of those so bad. I'm a big FSJ guy, but for the past 15-ish years, Jeep has totally betrayed what they used to stand for. The Niva seems like one of the last holdouts for the 'old way' of building a tough little 4x4. I'd love to take one to Utah.

I came here to say this. I think the Twizy was an electric concept, but the crossblade is pretty much exactly the definition of 'fun car', but of course everyone derided it, mostly because it was made by smart, I think. I still love it, though.

I just noticed that the grille/lights on a Lincoln look like a giant butterfly. Sorta makes it a li'l less aggressive.

Is that a dead goat at the :22 mark? =-\

Imagine being the one who has to load the luggage rack.

Interesting... if that's the truck in question, it completely blows my theory out of the water. Though it begs the question; how on earth is that truck powerful enough to fight the current completely submerged? The wake would imply that there's a good bit of current there.

It looks to me like it was doing alright driving up the river, then found a hole. The truck has a huge snorkel, so the driver probably figured he'd be fine — and he probably was, until the hole appeared.

Not so. It is colloquially known as the Union Jack, but that doesn't make it right, and definitely doesn't make it 'official'.

Hmm, I wonder how I didn't know about that.

If only the new thing with muscle cars would be air intakes where you most desire them (in the hood).

That Supra looks like it lost in a boxing match.

I guess it makes sense. Mini, after all, gets lots of Americans to stick Union Jacks on their cars and embrace that Britishness. Please, someone buy one of these and then get into a Range Rover Autobiography or something.

It's like the car version of this:

I personally love the color grey. There's too much silver/faux-chrome in that Merc though. Grey with black accents is my catnip.
