So why is it we hear about EVs bursting into flames like this, but not hybrids? It's not as big, but hybrids still have an insane amount of potential energy stored in their batteries. Is there something inherently different about the pure EV design that makes shorting batteries more likely? Or is i...

Damn - a pretty nice 1999 cabrio, six speed with 101,000 miles just sold on BAT for $16,500. Brand new top and hydraulics. Looked to be a pretty nice car. Apparently there are some COVID deals out there right now.

This is what the rears on my car look like at the moment: 9F82A771-EE6A-4539-A57B-278D19D6802C.jpeg So, clearly it’s time. General GMax tires are on sale through April 30th by way of ...

I also lubed the wastegate actuators. I had to make a second trip to AdvanceAuto to get some silicone spray lube. I’m intrigued by the design of the cap, with the 2 notches - what the hell are they for? I thought maybe for the little red straw taped to the side of the can, but it doesn’t really fit...
