Dirty Laundry

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/26

I rarely – I don’t think I ever have – aired issues I’ve had with a business I’d dealt with. But I have never had an issue with a business that is in the business of selling parts (and services) for old cars before now. And I think it’s your business to know about it […] The post Dirty Laundry appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Clutch Preservation

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/26

If you’ve ever had that slipping feeling, you already know what it feels like when it’s time for a new clutch. You press down on the gas pedal and the engine speeds up – but your car or truck doesn’t. And then you smell that smell. Those are the clues that let you know you […] The post Clutch Preservation appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

More Evidence that Orange Man is Bad

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/25

There are people who hope Trump is good. Or at least, not as bad as the alternative we were presented with as the only alternative to him. Which worked really well in that it prompted many people – me among them – appalled by the prospect of the only alternative to him – to vote […] The post More Evidence that Orange Man is Bad appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Four Tons of Green

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/25

Evil is often absurd. One recent example being the sight of people wearing multiple “masks” to “stop the spread” during that absurdly evil event styled “the pandemic.” Another example of evil absurdity is the 2025 GMC Sierra Denali Device – i.e., the battery-powered thing that looks like a GMC Sierra pick-up. It weighs just shy […] The post Four Tons of Green appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Why Sell Cars When You Can Sell an Agenda?

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/24

There was a time – it was a long time ago, it seems – when car companies were in the business of designing and selling cars. They worked to make the cars they designed appealing as something more than just appliances. Jaguar was among the leaders, once upon a time. It just took the lead […] The post Why Sell Cars When You Can Sell an Agenda? appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Strike One

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/23

It appears the Orange Man hasn’t learned a god-damned thing. Or – worse – he was a knowing backer of the whole god-damned thing. How do we know? The Orange Man has just tapped a younger, female version of Dr. Fauci to be the next surgeon general. Her name is Dr. Janette Nesheiwat – another […] The post Strike One appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Bitconned?

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/23

It is a truism that people are more inclined to accept something they don’t like if it comes from someone they consider to be a friend. Or at least not an enemy. Will people who like and trust Trump be more accepting of digital money if it comes from Donald Trump? Trump has said things […] The post Bitconned? appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

They Should Have Said No

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/22

People who wore the “mask” when ordered ought to have understood what would be coming next. Of course, most didn’t – and so they got what was coming next. Similarly, the car companies – as regards their Babbitt-like, obsequious going-along-with the push to “electrify” everything on wheels. Many of them openly said they would do […] The post They Should Have Said No appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Some Therapy

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/02

One of the things we can do to mitigate the stress of everything feeling like it’s spiraling out of control is to take on something that is under our control. To fix or build something, for instance. It is therapeutic in the sense that Robert Pirsig wrote about in his book, Zen and the Art […]The post Some Therapy appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Orange Trepidation

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/01

Like most people who aren’t communists, I prefer the Orange Man defeats the communists in a few days from now. Communism being a thing best avoided. But is it – per the lament of the fish-man thing in one of the Star Wars movies – a trap? It hardly bears thinking about. But that is why […] The post Orange Trepidation appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

A Quick Look at the Lincoln Corsair – and an AGW

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/01

I was driving the ’25 Lincoln Corsair they just dropped off the other day and trying to offer up some initial thoughts – when my peaceful train-of-thought was interrupted by the sight of an armed government worker lying in wait like a bandit by the side of the road. And that is exactly what AGWs […] The post A Quick Look at the Lincoln Corsair – and an AGW appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Self-Driving Tesla Runs Over Kid – Keeps Driving

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/11/01

The headline isn’t entirely accurate – but the point is it could have been. The owner of a self-driving Tesla posted a video on the speech suppression social media site now called X that shows his self-driving Tesla driving into a deer that was standing in the road. The self-driving Tesla not only hit the […] The post Self-Driving Tesla Runs Over Kid – Keeps Driving appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

AGW Attacks Jaywalker

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/10/31

In the military – in basic training – a recruit may find himself being berated by a drill sergeant for being untidy or some other triviality, because the point of the berating is to instill discipline and obedience to authority. Citizens just walking down the street are not supposed to be subjected to Obedience Training […] The post AGW Attacks Jaywalker appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Some Questions for the Apologists

2024/10/30

Herewith some questions for those who believe it is necessary to “transition” to battery powered vehicles. That is, for the industry to be forced (via the cudgel of regulatory compliance) to manufacture nothing except battery powered vehicles and – thus – people left with no choice as far as what they’re allowed to buy.

“Champions of Diversity”

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/10/29

Here is a picture of everything that’s wrong with the car industry, car journalism and pretty much everything else corrupted by what Elon Musk rightly refers to as the “Woke mind virus.” Automotive News – which was once a trade publication of the auto industry – published an article article the other day “celebrating” (how […] The post “Champions of Diversity” appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.

Clarkson’s Right

EPautos – Libertarian Car Talk ·

2024/09/30

Top Gear frontman Jeremy Clarkson is right: Modern cars are “all shit now.” But he didn’t explain exactly why, so I’ll try. It is not because they aren’t powerful or because they are slow, because they are neither of those things. A new Prius hybrid gets to 60 more quickly than 80 percent of the […]The post Clarkson’s Right appeared first on EPautos - Libertarian Car Talk.
