    What was this Jeep built by Xzibit?


    Yo Dawg I heard you like jeeps, so I put a jeep in your Jeep so can drive your Jeep while you drive your Jeep.


    Or something like, I'm sure someone can take this further.

    I'm happy to see not all creativity has been excised from designers/engineers in the automotive kingdom.


    Now, howsabout we bring back gas filler caps located under/behind tail lamps?


    Mmmmm. 1955 Cadillac convertible....


    Please, keep the ones behind license plates, though those did, in theory, make it easier for morons to get gasoline, as they were on the vehicle's centerline.


    Nothing makes me laugh like idiots on "Pumpcasting" dragging a gas hose over the trunk/rear window 'cause they're too damned stupid to remember which side the filler is on...or they can't look at the gas gauge to see if it has a pointer showing you. Hell, release the filler door and look in the mirror!

    Nice detail - I love hidden little tricks like that. I remember the first time I followed an early '80s Audi 4000 on a cold morning, only to see "quattro" spelled out in melting frost in the rear window of the car.

    @A strooooolling the Jalopplayer: I remember lying on the floor, working on relaying the headlights in the Corrado and swearing like a sailor, only to find that when you detached a certain panel and peered upwards through the maze of wires, there was a cut-out silhouetted VW logo hidden beneath the dash. I went from hating the car to calling for anyone near by to peer up and see it in about 2 seconds flat. It's little details like that that make me love cars.


    The Rambler is also replete with them. Hidden script "R" logos everywhere, including in places you should never be able to notice them.


    By the way. It's Wednesday. You're late.

    @Ash79 welcomes you to Ash Wednesday: Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. To a lesser extent, I still loved lifting the hood of my dad's (recently departed) G35 to see "POWER DUCT" and "FRONT MIDSHIP" needlessly but perfectly displayed on the plastic.


    Let me remind you that an Ash is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.

    It's supposed to look identical to the old one, right? Okay. And it's going to be excellent, but it'll cost more than Jeep buyers are willing to pay? Got it.


    As long as they kill the Commander when they bring this out, I'm for it. Given the track record of air suspension and other gadgets from both Mercedes and Chrysler, though, I'd suggest you lease it if you won't be off-roading.


    Oh, and for everyone who says "hurrrr Benz can't offroad", have a G-wagen.

    Compass\Patriots were a step in the right direction, just not executed properly.


    Be real, who give a shit about offroad worthiness these days except a few diehards. As long as it can get through a snowstorm and pull a few things it will be fine for 99.999% of customers out there. No way am I going to aim my $45,000 car at the nearest rock in a hurry.

    * All-new body structure's torsional stiffness is 146 percent stiffer than current model and stiffer than the BMW X5 and Toyota Highlander for improved durability and reduced noise, vibration and harshness (NVH)

    * Stiffness achieved with more than 5,400 welds in the body alone...


    Yeah, that stiffness is going to come in handy when it stiffs in the market.
