    The summer weather finally here to stay for a few weeks in the Puget Sound area, I’ve got the urge to throw a sleeping bag in the back of the truck and hit the road for some serious summer outdoor fun. However, I do have a wife, which means I not only have requirements this…

    The last few weeks around our house have been busy, and I have put more than a few miles on my truck going to interviews (the end is in sight!). As is my wont, I like to take the long way home after a busy day running around, when I can relax and enjoy the…

    There’s just something about a small German hatchback that makes me happy. It  could be the clean, straight lines that epitomize the 80’s econobox, or the simple, honest fun of driving an underpowered car to its limits and beyond. Around here, we call it slow car fast, and as we all know, slow car fast is…

    Not to be outdone by the glorious golden Firebird we looked at last week, this blue bird was spotted in a Redmond parking lot just a few weeks ago. As usual, I decided to stop and get a few pictures to share with all y’all. Check it out.

    For your Truck Thursday enjoyment, I present to you what might be the coolest truck on the internet today. 1991 was a good year for Ford trucks – it was the final year of the 8th-generation F-Series, and with a full range of trim levels on offer, Ford was determined to send it out with…

    There comes a time in every man’s life when he’s got to break free . . . Sorry, wrong blog. Started singing a Ricky Van Shelton song there for a minute. Anyway, there comes a time in every married couple’s life when they have to decide: sell our economy car and upgrade to the requisite…

    Ah, the Mazda Miata; small, cheap, fun, and generally harmless. In a way, it’s odd that this little car was ever considered worthy of being a race car. We all know, however, that these make excellent racers, and should be at the top of anyone’s list who is thinking about sports car racing. One of…
