Comment Of The Day: Crash Test Brothers Edition-April 2024

Image for article titled Comment Of The Day: Crash Test Brothers Edition

So here’s an anecdote from my father’s youth. When he was in his teens he had an early 1970s Ford Mustang Mach 1. He had been working on the car in between shifts baling hay out in the family fields. When it came time for dinner, my grandmother told my uncle to go fetch my father, so Unc jumps in the Mach to peel off down the street for a rapid pickup. The hood pins weren’t pinned. Crash Test Brother.

For reminding me of that humorous story that my dad likes to tell, I’m awarding today’s COTD victory to Skeffles. And to go along with your glory, here’s a song to get stuck in your head for the rest of the evening.

Chevy's Bean Counters Turned The Vega's Taillights Into Tail Liars
The Chevy Vega is often to befoul America’s roads, and with good reason. Though attractive enough, it was plagued with engineering, build quality, and materials issues that added up to create something truly universally disappointing to people of all walks of life. I’m sure most of you hold the...

Blip: The Lincoln For Aliens
Back in the 1980s, Lincoln was looking to expand to new markets, so they set their sights on Beta Tarquania, the second planet of the Tarquanian system, which had a population of tall, wealthy, liquid-mercury-skinned beings and a society based on comfortable, quiet travel to and from airports. That,...

Gran Turismo 7 Might Let You Frankenstein A 911 GT3 Engine Into A Beetle
Personally, I’m still coming down from last Wednesday’s State Of Play deep dive into , which consisted of more than 30 minutes of very pretty 4K car footage and answered loads of my nerdy questions. But amid all the enthusiasm, it seems Polyphony Digital quietly snuck something into the...

Carjackers In Small SUV Are No Match For A Big Truck
An attempted carjacking in Chile last week only made it to that “attempted” status thanks to the quick thinking of the victim and their hefty vehicle. Check out the dash cam video below, and hope you have this kind of quick thinking should you ever run into some Mr....
