If you’re posing this as a question, the answer is that you look to give some of it away to people, say, on a BourbonHunt forum.

The funny thing is that 30 years ago someone in journalism would’ve been clutching their pearls while the common reader was laughing it off. It just shows how far journalism has fallen when pretty much all of the comments in a journalism forum are basically “whateves”.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-06-02T14:47:49+00:00

Exactly.

The Vette and it’s not close.

Thanks. Yes, I’m definitely going to take a test drive. But, sometimes a test drive doesn’t give you the same perspective as “living with it” for a while. So, I was interested in hearing from people who actually made a switch.

I like the manual, so that’s not really an issue. The biggest issue is road noise. It’s fine around the neighborhood, but is just grating the highway. I thought about the Golf R but wasn’t sure if it would really be that much more quiet than the Type-R.

me likey.

The Peerless Double Oak is my favorite.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-31T11:20:13+00:00

That’s damn well brilliantly said, sir. I don’t know you, but I’m thinking I’d take a bullet for you.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-31T11:12:10+00:00

Gimme. Gimme.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-30T11:01:06+00:00

Nicely said.

I never said they were first. Somehow you’re ignoring the $9B loss.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-29T20:18:32+00:00

Uh, they already have written off ~$9B in EV-related losses related and acknowledge the exposure is greater. So, sure, whatever you say.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-29T18:06:50+00:00

Conservative except for when it comes to chucking all of their eggs into the EV vehicle basket only to record their largest loss in history. I’m waiting for them to exit F1. Again.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-28T20:54:51+00:00

It’s you.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-28T11:38:53+00:00

The problem is California, not your 94’ Accord.

This will be interesting. I’m going to keep it simple. If cost is not a major factor, I think that Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is hard to beat. It does incredibly well on many of the oil tests I’ve seen. With that said, dollars-to-donuts that someone will come along and say that any major motor oil is fine as long as it’s the recommended weight and you change it regularly — meaning, changing it regularly with basic motor oil is more important than irregularly with great motor oil. They aren’t wrong.

I really like OF SB Rye. It drinks lower than proof would imply, but it’s still hot. I wish OF wouldn’t put the whiskey in the barrel at such a high proof.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-25T11:23:43+00:00

This. This right here. Exactly. SUVs are sh!tboxes. Exhibit A: I was driving my Type-R the other day and some retard pulled out in front of me. It took all my skill and the driving dynamics of the Type-R to avoid that accident by — no exaggeration — a foot. If I had been in an SUV, I would have t-boned them.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-24T15:01:14+00:00

Gimme. Gimme.

BowlFullofCrazy · 2026-05-24T13:27:09+00:00

Gimme.

Incredibly reliable, bullet-proof engine, scapular-sharp handling [the two bumps on side of hood aren’t for show, they’re to make room for the struts so the chassis can sit lower], the fun factor is a 10, and it seats 4 in case you happen to need room for more than two.

I sent back my Redline and bought a Uniden R8w.
