The Battle of Little Big Rig
My friend Jim Spotted this up in the Great White North. Seeing as its a Ford Ranger it most likely has a little 2.3 liter motor in it, so I think those dual stacks are a bit of overkill.
At This Point, Wouldn’t a Camry be Classier?
There’s no shame in driving a car that has been in a fender bender. But clearly the driver of this S class has resigned himself to driving it in this condition for the duration. That side view mirror is not a temporary addition.
Drivers Wanted
Anyone in the Los Angeles area (Van Nuys to be exact) want to get on a 24 Hours of Lemons Race Team, let me know. Its going to cost you $500 for 1/6 of the drive time, which includes all the car expenses except fuel. Figure you will also have to come up with $500 […]
