Because it is 2014, and with all that entails regarding a global economy, the idea that by buying an "American" truck, you are somehow directly keeping Detroit in high cotton is ridiculous. Unless, of course, your argument is more emotion-driven, in which case, truck nutz fuck yeah. Read more

I remember the first time I flew on the midnight flight out of Heathrow. It was 2:30 AM and the stewardess came by and punched me as hard as she could in the eye. In a flash, it swelled up and was the color of an eggplant. "Go ahead, call it the redeye, I dare you" she said. Read more

I'm experiencing an emotion similar to sadness, at seeing this beloved, loyal old car get killed. I'M NOT SAD, IT'S NOT SADNESS. Good car. Good boy. Read more

Agreed. Few things that are more distracting and un-driverly than "instant-on" brakes. The worst I've driven are on an otherwise enjoyable Honda Fit. They were binary: full on or full off, and, especially around town ruined the experience. Super initially grabby brakes may appeal to soccer moms in minivans who equate… Read more

That's a bummer. My DD is a 9-3 SE, but I had an 83 900T in grad school, (that I paid $100 for!) and was lucky enough to end up having space to keep both when I got a "real" car. At this point, despite the fact that it is basically costing me more to keep than it is worth, I wouldn't sell it, period.

Between the Vig and the SPG, that is some great stuff. Beautiful cars. Read more

This car here, a 1998 Magna-Steyr Schmitzel-II is the first and last car to be machined from one solid block of stainless steel. The block weighed roughly 20,000 pounds and was shipped from Finland to Austria on a specially built road, which required razing 3 villages and filling in the former Lake Klarghorst. Over…

I'm most excited for Audi's new engine-free cars. "What better way to improve emissions, yes?" Audi's chief engineer stated. "When you have a car with this new technology, women will still want to schtupp you, and you will not have to spend money on the gasoline. Plus, it is one less thing to break." Read more

This is so good. Read more

The best shot is The Extremo. A 50/50 blend of well tequila and McGillicuddy mint schnapps. Mmmm. It is awful. It is staggeringly, almost incomprehensibly bad the instant it hits your tongue. Nothing about these two liquors compliment each other at all. The flavors fight in your mouth like a pair of bobcats in a… Read more

This thing here blew my mind - it is a Sony G-9 Floranza. It was a rare, limited-production Japan-only car that was powered by a Rolls-Royce dynamically variable gas turbine that ran on acetone. It was a super-secret development from Sony, which, after inventing the VCR, was flush with cash in the mid-80's and was…

Hey guy, do you actually read Deadspin? Are you at all familiar with the institutional voice with regard to this issue? Do you have any grasp of subtlety? Did you, at any point today enjoy a moment of lucidity where you considered that Deadspin was actually poking fun at those who would snicker at Wes Welker,… Read more

Oh wow. +1 Read more

I actually saw your post on Saabnet regarding the plate the other day, and thought it was great. Love the car, love that you're driving it. Read more

I have a question: That car, and that plate are awesome; I hope you have an awesome time driving it. Read more

...and as he grew older, Glavine's eccentricities grew more pronounced. It was revealed that in the famous Hall Of Fame photo, the other end of the cord is tied to his dog Rex's collar. This was how Glavine took Rex to the park. He called it "Talkin' the dog." And now you know the rest of the story. Good day. Read more
