A Horse With No Name

64 Bonneville convertible

This car is an incredible survivor. Interesting retaining wall system. And yes, Rivian is doing well because they build a truck, and not a Miata competitor. Drive through Ohio, count the Silverado's and F-150's, and then count the small cars.

Ukrainians making progress.

Speaking of the past... SVO Mustang is high on my list of desirable 80's cars. About 3rd advert in... Jackie Stewart FTW in the T Bird portion of the advert.

I think that the old car mantle seems to have fallen on me now that Balthazar doesn't seem to come around much more. Neat 56 Chevy.

Old age is setting in on me also, Turned 58 last week. Your posts are always cool. It partners nicely, like a fine wine with the driving by braille method. See rolling junkyards of Ohio for 500, Alex. Although I almost prefer this car with its vintage Patina.

Full size Chevy built for autocross and handling.

If you look at the Mustang at the 4:26 mark, that car gave its life, but damn sure protected its driver.

74 GTO goes seriously airborne at the 2:50 mark...lots of GM carnage here. Including split window corvette and a 3rd gen Camaro. Now you see why I am so interested in safety technology.

Electric cars will revolutionize racing. Here is a new Electric world record holder. With the rolling junkyards of rural Ohio that is sort of like "does the carpet match the drapes" for the automotive world. The scuffed and destroyed sidewalls match the sideswiped and rusted body panels. See, we folks from Ohio have fashion sense, just the wrong kind.

For a guy who hated Ford 4 years ago, I have come a long way. Bling on cars in general. For educational and not political purposes, but cool.

You are a huge inspiration for my own road trips. I have thought of an F150 hybrid for that very reason when I pay off the Ranger. Tesla will be outclassed and outgunned as EV's continue to take over. And Musk is a world class idiot by any measure. Very cool and not often seen vintage GM car Now to do TC Bob's road trips in this would be Epic!

One of the most beautiful Steam locomotives ever. If only I had time, space and a budget for a nice HO scale model railroad.

Thanks! Thanks! Thank you! I may indeed eventually own another vintage car.

Educational...

I love watching 2nd and 3rd gen Camaros do the quarter mile thing... Lastly...

This car is about perfect however...

I have largely given up on cars altogether. I have owned vintage cars and love them, but now a woodworking shop fills my garage. Enjoying using my Ranger to get to places to hike/explore. If something happens to Ranger, want to get something similar to replace it. But the inexpensive midsize truck is going the way of the Dodo bird and the sedan. Ford is now building only crew cab models and 99 percent of them are loaded if you are not a fleet buyer. Paid 27K for my Ranger, a new Ranger on a lot is usually about 47K. Not sure it is worth the extra 20K to me. After all this negativity, something positive. Young woman playing piano...

Quoted for truth. Apparently Canadians get something right once in awhile. Does not mean that I hate the Any less. Good riddance to all 3 of these $h! boxes, and good Monday morning to you all!

One reason I am seldom here and no longer care about new cars frankly. Of the interesting passenger cars....Mustang,,,,Copy of a 1964 idea....Camaro...copy of a 1966 idea and cancelled.....Challenger, copy of a 1970 idea...Miata....update of a car introduced in 1989....GTI....update of a car introduced in 1975....Cadillac and Audi...sleek sedans but ultimately not that interesting....um....seems we ran out of ideas 45 or 50 years ago. Not that creative ideas didn't happen with 70's 80's, 90's other cars. But the automakers have jack $h! for creative ideas. Exotics largely look like cartoons drawn with a dull crayon by a drug induced stripper in a jail cell after a bad human trafficking session. BMW products largely look like the cheap pizza that stripper flushed down the toilet in her jail cell after her arrest for OMVI. Large SUV's are cool, but again, need new ideas. As the book of Proverbs says.... "and the day of death than the day of one's birth." Malibu and Fusion...are they even sold much/at all any more? Her bare ass resembles a lot of Nissan products. This is something to consider, most folks are in a worse financial situation than they were 4, n6, 8 years ago. We need to move away from cars as a primary form of transportation. Long term we don't have the petroleum reserves, the space, or the ability to deal with the environmental harm of the car as a daily driver for most folks.

When I bought my ranger I considered getting a Miata. Back 3 years ago, Mazda told me there was 1 car available in the Columbus market in the next three months, and I would take whatever color or options they sent. How times change! I think the era of sporty compacts is passed forever actually. Another thing that has passed...big land yachts. I still love them though. Crappy video, amazing cars. More Moar... Amazing... Still on a drag racing binge...

It is like about 1912 or 1914 all over again, but this time with electric cars. We have a hundred years of stupid crazy progress ahead of us, and none of us will sadly live to see what wonderful things are coming in terms of EV's. I thought the crap stain down the passenger side was quite "interesting"

Still racing, original 1968 Factory Hemi Cuda special limited production race car. Good driver interview.

A real load of bull
