So it’s basically a chemical based way to removing that haze and oxidation. I’ve gone the “wet sanding-polishing” route on our old Mk IV Jetta, but afterward I immediately put a clear film (Lamin-X is a good source) over them to protect what I’d mechanically removed. I placed similar film over my Evo’s head lights and… Read more

You make a very good point with your uncle’s experience. My grandmother is 94 years old and was probably the first in our family to be vaccinated. There was NO question if she was going to get it. She lived through that era, she knows what a goddamn miracle vaccines can be.  Read more

That truck looks to be of a type that operate in Michigan all the time. The trailer has several more axles that normal. I’ve only seen them in Michigan (maybe other states allow for them too), so I don’t think it’s terribly common. Read more

As it turns out, if you sign up for GETTR using the same username that you have on Twitter, you “may be able to import copies of your content” over to the new platform. Read more

It could be interesting, because no matter how glossy the presentation, Bernie is almost guaranteed to fuck it up by simply speaking. It’s only a short matter of time before he says something awful and if you try to edit it all out, you’ll have about a useable 5 minutes of material. At best. He is unabashedly who he… Read more

I’m going to go at this from a different point of view. Sure, I could put cars I hate in there. Yet, there is something to be said about driving a car you give absolutely no fucks about. Treat it with contempt. Park anywhere. Fear no door dings or dents. It’s like having 2 beaters in the garage and all the perks that… Read more

Well, at least they can get to the lawn mower, so that’s nice. I guess. Read more

I would take that too, but I still need to figure out the grift.  Read more

As impressive as this physics bending thing is, I’ll take my gasoline sendoff in the flavor of a new 911 GT3. Read more

I usually don’t like to go this route, BUT- the crazy eyes. She has the same style of crazy eyes as Michelle Bachman. That’s a goddamn red flag to anyone with a grain of common sense. Read more

Fiat Multipla, hands down the wackiest instrument panel I’ve ever seen. Read more

I really don’t like spiders, yet I’m transfixed. Read more

Again, this is just unbelievable to see just how politicized all of this has become. Read more

Goddamn that car is lovely. The back end is especially well resolved. Read more

I’m comfortable branding them “assholes” or “fucking pathetic assholes” if a stronger, more apt term is called for Read more

I wouldn’t be surprised if they used a pre-production build for this. They aren’t able to be sold and usually end up in the crusher at some point. Read more

You would still have my vote.  Read more

If you haven’t already, NOW is when the baby-proofing gets serious. Little buggers can get into way more stuff after the walking starts. Read more

Height adjusting seats. I like to sit relatively upright when I drive and I am also on the tall side (6' 4"). So being able to tweak the height of the seat is a nice bonus to getting my preferred driving position. Our old Mk IV Jetta had them and so does our Jeep. My Evo doesn’t, but it’s roofline is boxy enough that… Read more

As a tall person, I will ALWAYS go for non sunroof model. They rob too much headroom. Read more
