Honda

Standing in a tire shop three years ago staring at two options. Michelin Defenders for $180 each or some brand I’d never heard of for $85 each. That’s like $380 difference for a full set. The guy working there wasn’t pushing either way. Just said the Michelins would last longer and ride better. I asked […]

Needed new tires last year and was broke as hell. Guy at the tire shop kept pushing these Chinese brand tires that were like $60 each instead of the $140 Michelins I was looking at. I was skeptical but also didn’t have $560 to spend. Ended up getting them. Been driving on them for about […]

Bought one of those wireless car chargers last year after my charging cable died for the third time. Figured I’d try it since I was tired of dealing with frayed cables and the whole “which way does USB-C go” thing every time I got in the car. Used it for about eight months. Ended up […]

Saw this YouTube video last year about a solar car that could supposedly drive forever without charging. Comments were full of people asking “why don’t all cars have this” and “big oil is suppressing this technology” and I’m sitting there thinking yeah that sounds too good to be true. Did a deep dive into solar […]

My back hurt for like six months straight from my commute before I finally admitted I might need some kind of seat support. Hour each way, terrible traffic, cheap seat in my aging Honda. By the time I got to work my lower back was screaming and my neck was stiff. Being stubborn and cheap […]

Okay so I got sucked into one of those YouTube rabbit holes at like 2am where I watched like 30 car mod videos in a row. You know how it goes – you start with something reasonable like “how to change oil” and three hours later you’re watching someone install underglow on a Prius. Anyway […]

So I went to a cars and coffee thing last month and there was this brand new McLaren 750S parked next to a Ferrari F40 from the 90s. And like, the McLaren is objectively faster in every measurable way – more power, better aero, faster lap times, all of it. But literally every single person […]

So my neighbor installed one of those obnoxious train horns on his pickup truck last year and I swear to god the first time he used it I thought a freight train was about to plow through my living room. Thing was LOUD. Anyway he got pulled over like two weeks later and the cop […]

Okay so last month my alternator died on a Friday afternoon—because of course it did—and I needed my car running by Monday morning. Spent the next few hours learning every trick in the book to track down parts fast. Let me save you the same frantic Google spiral I went through. Stop Calling Individual Dealers […]

I’ve got a buddy who drives a Nissan Frontier through some absolutely brutal construction sites for work, and that thing just refuses to die. Meanwhile, my neighbor’s Nissan Versa rattles like a tin can over the same pothole-riddled street I drive down every day. So are Nissans tough enough for rough roads? The answer really […]
