Lets Go Car Shopping

It's September 16, 1973, I'm in Chicago, and I'm shopping in the classifieds for a car.  See anything that you like?  I've already circled a few that seem reasonable in price.  What do you think?

Worst Car in the World? The 2015 Tartan Prancer.

Ever wonder what the worst new car in the world might be?  It might just be the new 2015 Tartan Prancer (Albania's best SUV).  Love the Tesla-like door handles taken to the next level.  You think you hate it now, but wait till you drive it! 



Really, it's a pretty slick "commercial" for the new Family Truckster, the main star from the upcoming "Vacation" movie.  You think you hate the new movie now, but wait till you see it!

Police in N. Texas Stopping Random Drivers for DNA and Blood Samples

Police in North Texas are stopping random drivers in Fort Worth on the behalf of Federal contractors for random blood and DNA samples.  It's supposed to be to check for impaired driving, and supposed to be voluntary, but how many people say "no" to police and federal employees when being forcibly pulled over?

From KXAS Ch. 5 News in Fort Worth, Texas.

Peter Griffin on Top Gear?

This spyshot from the December issue of Top Gear Magazine confirms that Family Guy's Peter Griffin and the trio of twats from the UK version of Top Gear are buds.  I wonder if they are all in the reasonably priced car?

WAIT!! That's Diesel!!

This kind of thing used to happen to an ex-girlfriend who used to drive my 2001 Golf TDI quite a bit back in the early to mid 2000's.  Back then, diesel cars were pretty rare in Texas and even rarer up in rural Oklahoma where she drove.  A few times, a well-meaning person would even run over to her and shut the pump off.  

This is a new commercial from Audi for their new TDI cars and it's great!

Ever wonder what it's like to fly like an eagle?  Now you can find out.
