It's my first Chrysler so time will tell if it's a good call. I hear the online crowd jeering Chrysler, but who knows of they're just excited to hear their own computer keys clanking. yes, I recognise that I'm that way about Chevy. The irony is not lost. Chrysler vehicles that I've driven (when I w...

Just so happens that I just got back from a few days out on the road. Camped through a few places, seen a lot of new stuff; explored. It was blissfully relaxing. Just the dog and I; I never tire of his company like I do with all people for some reason. Something about dogs and their never-ending lo...

Sorta like no matter how you prepare it, if you're in France and you toast some bread, it's French toast, right? Yup, toast. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHptn_3RyYE However, we might end up not going - people are sick. :( Is anyone else having issues where the site logs them out randomly going b...

http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2017/01/mazdas-hcci-for-2018/ I don't know why I'm intrigued considering I'm a pseudo-luddite. Interesting post. I'm certainly interested - though like previously mentioned, I'm wondering how Mazda has managed to control the emissions compared to standard gas engine...

It's so crowded there on the weekend that nobody goes there anymore. I'd try to get there early....really early....parking on the roof of Cobo Center (so close you can leave your coat in the car), getting your tickets and standing in line until they open doors to the exhibit halls. Then, see the ex...

Yeah, that happened to my sister when she bought the Yugo.

Ah yes, the only way they sold any Yugos.

Anyone going to the Detroit auto show this coming weekend?

Eye maybe.

Then I might see you there. We're planning on going on Saturday, I think.

Jalopnik has some details and discussion on this that suggest it is a matter of interpretation of requirements and not deliberate rigging of the software to pollute profusely unless it detects that an emissions test is in progress. I read a couple of other articles and it certainly is different fro...

You wouldn't catch me paying new car money for a Chevy though. Any time you're paying new car money, there ought to be an orgasm in it for you. Now if that's what 600+ horsepressure does for you, gopher it! You mean the dealerships to which you went didn't have the person in the back room? After yo...

So, when you got the wheels home, you found they were the wrong bolt circle, right? :lol: Manager said "no returns" after knocking the price down for me, so that would be a real bummer, but I won't be able to test-fit until April when I take off the winter wheels/tires. However, it is a s...

Ruh-roh. Fiat Chrysler may have issues with their diesels too... The U.S. government is accusing Fiat Chrysler of violating the Clean Air Act on some of its diesel engines installed in about 104,000 vehicles. The Environmental Protection Agency accused the company of installing and failing to disclo...

They are going to recreate that in a few years as the with the blank being to the left of 1 through 6 and say it's not zero or something.

Had a cold spell here in Dallas over the last few days. Got down to 16. I drove up to southern Oklahoma for a day hike yesterday; it was fantastic. Spent a few hours hiking the woods tramping through about an inch and a half of fresh snow. Back to 70* by Tuesday. Crazy weather. We're about to have ...

I love my car. Having a boring car is stupid. Why would you want to spend so much time in something you dont enjoy? I always laugh when I hear salespeople recommend getting a beater car to somebody leasing a nice vehicle. The rationale being to keep the miles off the nice car. I've had this happen ...

EV RESIDUALS STINK - Autoline Daily https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mkkQXwqNGNM/maxresdefault.jpg If the price of a new electric car is enough to make you gag, check out the used ones. Nissan Leafs with just 30,000 to 40,000 miles are going for as little as $9,000. The Fiat 500e is even cheaper. Used ones a...
