I’d have to say: probably wrenching on my brother’s old 2004 Sebring (2.7L). Read more

Good question. I think she’s actually looking at the side, which will often have a crank handle or other mechanism. That might actually be the tip of the crank in her right hand there. Read more

Boil ’em, mash ’em, play a little Doom!

Took me a minute to find the proper terminology for it, but I think that’s an old TLR camera, with the case flipped open.

The Tesla app uses some “dark patterns,” which are user interface tricks that guide people into spending more money, including automatically checking off the $4,000 Enhanced Autopilot software option, no user input required. Read more

Truck Yeah it is!

Can confirm, under the right conditions many cars can still be driven some distance without charging the battery. ...as long as the battery is in good health and doesn’t have too much of a load on it, anyway. Read more

So long, Andrew! No matter where you go, I’m sure you’ll be making a splash.

That reminds me- got another simple snack combo for ya: saltines and honey. On the surface, it sounds too boring to even try. But you know what it tastes like? Honey-drizzled biscuits. Well... of course. It seems so obvious now, I don’t know why it even surprised me at first. It’s good though! Read more

Cameras can be really neat in some aspects, but I’ve found them to be frustrating to use in anything but clear weather. A generously-sized window can still afford a fair amount visibility as it starts to accumulate dirt/water/etc, but one drop of water is all it takes to render a backup camera useless. Read more

For me, I think it’d be a toss-up between having to depend on the rearview camera to see past the massive rear pillars, or the agonizingly slow frame rate on that speedometer display. Read more

This made me LOL

TBH, traffic pics like these tend to draw my eye more towards hints of driving behavior than what kind of vehicles are being driven. And one of the things that caught my eye here was the angle of this Durango. It’s a pretty aggressive angle for merging, and judging by the lane markings, it’s changing lanes at the last…

Well, what sort of standards are these cars built to? Read more

I’m really feeling both sides of the argument here. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Read more

This is interesting (and troubling), but I think it would be more useful to see the overall number of crashes, not just the ones that resulted in fatalities. Read more

That similarity always struck me too... turns out it was intentional after all: Read more

There is not a single track on this game that I don’t like. It’s gold! Read more

Different spelling, I know, but I just can’t help but think of Exedy when I hear “Exidy”.
