We live in an era where, with few exceptions, there’s really no such thing as a truly bad car. Every car has some sort of selling point, be it design, an engine, or maybe an interior. It’s telling when the worst insult you could give a car is that it’s aggressively beige.
Thomas wrote about how someone bought a somewhat rusty, but very low-mile 2002 Toyota Camry for $22,000. It’s still not entirely clear why people spend so much money on Bring a Trailer on regular cars, but it could be because that Camry is a boring, yet as dependable as a good dog. That didn’t stop you from cracking jokes, like StillNotATony:
The beige Camry. The car for enthusiasts who think Miracle Whip is a bit too exciting.
Or Hangover Grenade:
That is, without a doubt in my mind, a car.
This reminds me of Subaru’s silly 2011 Mediocrity campaign, where the automaker dressed up an old Kia Optima to look even more boring.
Rivers has written about the silly conspiracy theories around the departure of Tim Kuniskis. One comment stands out from Icouldntfindaclevername:
“According to Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares (shown above)”
That’s not Carlos…I’ve never seen that dude before
Dodsworth also got in a fun one:
Tim got the Hell out of Dodge. He’ll be all right.
Finally, we land on Jason’s rant about those car underbody pans which always seem to end up broken and flapping around after years of abuse. I cannot unsee this comment by Man With A Reliable Jeep:
Having one of these hanging down on the ground is the automotive equivalent to toilet paper dragging from your shoe.
Have a great evening, everyone!
