Mitsubishi Sticks With Off-Road Roots For Next Shogun/Montero

I know he was a century old, but I feel like we got screwed on Death taking Jimmy Carter at 100 rather than Musk at 56.

The Cybertruck is the worst possible choice for a car bomb because It won't get to where it's bloody going. Nobody could come up with a fictional character as tragic and delusional as Musk.

Tesla needs to die. Elon Musk went from being the Henry Ford of our generation (automotive) to being the henry Ford of our generation (raging racist and anti semite). And 1978 was another whole year and generation. I had a 1978, it was a cool car but not as cool as the 66-67, 68-72 or 73-77. The beginning of a long, slow irreversible decline for GM.  Still loved my 78, which was sadly totalled in an accident. (Not my fault!). I still have a dream every few months where I go down to the garage and that car is still there.      He is one of the best thinkers of our generation.    Everytime I do actually see someone driving a cybertruck, I imagine how moronic they must be

A lot of interesting factoids ... The number of plants producing the mid-1960s Impala were numerous, including 2 in SoCal (Van Nuys and South Gate) and 2 in Canada (Oshawa and St.-Therese).  Imagine that ... working on the line with a Francophone in a herringbone cap who breaks out a baguette for his snack break.  Then, other plants:  up in Detroit, Atlanta, St. Louis, and the Arlington TX (Dallas) plant that made a lot of Cutlasses. Engines were varied: 230 in line 6 (not the 250 yet), V8s like 283, 327, and a 409 that gave way to the 396.  I notice the absence of the 307 at this point. The great 350 came a few years later. - - - - - As far as Cutlass going from 1976 to 1977, they did a few stupid things, yet may have sold even more of them: - the waterfall grille up front got busier, thus uglier - they got rid of the spherical vents on the right side of the dash and made them rectangular as well - they went from a more traditional burgundy (for that type of color choice) interior to a red interior (called firethorn) and it was obnoxious  - they slimmed down the bucket seats in the Salon coupe quite a bit - drum roll:  the loss leader base engine went from an inherently  balanced 250 in line 6 in an uncrowded engine bay to an "odd firing" 231 V6 (in its last year as "odd firing") and the area in the back of the engine bay around the engine itself was crowded. They should have left that one alone.  No one should have had a nicely equipped Brougham model with an engine that had a faint shudder at idle. - and, of course, they raised the price a fair bit
