Which is a different way of saying disposable ☹️. I think sadly eco or hybrid the industry like every other industry doesn't care much about consumer satisfaction with a product outside of 5 years or so. We can internally debate the power train but, it may likely be other shared factors that...
Lol, the Huffy Sigma apparently. I think it was huffys attempt to knock off the mongoose that had white Mag rims.
Please stop making me remember more details about that era's pastel colors schemes 😂.
I feel like all the children of the 80s (my gen) are in the decision making seats now.
Let this be a reminder that just because you have nostalgia, doesn't mean it was good!
These styles sucked back then and they suck now too 😂. Every time I see those rims, this damn bike comes to mind.
Did my first oil change yesterday. Considering it's a truck the ground clearance leaves a lot to be desired. Position of the drain plug and the cover plate also leave some to be desired. I guess I'm spoiled, but I can change the oil on my wife's Odyssey while it's still on the ground.

Soo many thoughts on this one...
- Is the red cart named Goose?

Spotted at least two of these when boarding an allegiant flight in FL.
Is there an angle I'm missing or is making our vehicles this smart a really dumb trend?

I'm visiting my In-laws and you just made me feel like I was taking to Pop and he fell asleep practically mid-sentence. I was with you until the Chevy Caprice "fix everything under warranty". Even followed along with Maco story waiting for it all to tie back in, but you drifted into mpg at...
I'll also make a counter point here I've made in other threads. Considering the nature of their use, our car culture of wanting pristine metal exteriors shined up like jewelry is counter intuitive.
- Hurdling down the road at high speed
- Parking lots
- Parking garages, even worse at cramming...
Hmmm, this seems like the reverse of an age old adage...
Like...
"Putting pig on some lipstick!"
The real question is, is this person doing this for the eyeballs or is that what "good" looks like to them? 😁
That's a cool positive scenario, but the practical luddite in me immediately thought ... I've owned another car with TPMS for 10 years now. Overall experience...
- Had to pay extra to retrofit 2nd hand snow tires with them (negative)
- Had one die on me, that's annoying (negative)
- Alerts my...
Ditto, upon seeing the thread title I wondered..."How does one use clothes pins to properly insert a playing card into the rear wheel?" I want my Mav to sound like that!🙂
