May 4th 2006 5:32PM It was clear after the Imola race (where he sent Christijan Albers flipping into the gravel on lap 1) that he wasn't doing much to keep himself in an F1 ride. This confirms it.

Let's start importing some diesels already! {Autoblog}
Apr 27th 2006 5:47PM Based on what I've read, a lot of the VW TDIs can't even run on anything but low-sulfur diesel. I certainly wouldn't mind a TDI though, my dad uses one (2000 Jetta) for 60 miles of commuting daily, with close to 140k on it.

Apr 26th 2006 1:22PM I saw this informercial on TV at 2 in the morning when I wqas in Vegas a few years back, and I'd say that "train wreck TV" would probably be a good description of the whole thing. I suspect this whole thing probably wouldn't fly anywhere but Vegas... Where else are you going to find a bigger audience of people awake at 2 in the morning, drunk and prone to financial indiscretion?
Fujitsu announces ETERNUS8000 Model 2100: 1.3PB array {Engadget}
Apr 24th 2006 9:26PM Hmmm... I wonder what kind of MTBF you'd get with something like this? You'd probably need to hire three guys to keep up with swapping out failed drives, and a fourth to stand at the ready with a fire extinguisher.

Rain-X versus PPG Aquapel: Grudge Match {Autoblog}
Apr 17th 2006 8:47PM I tried using Rain-X for a while, and it does work, but I found that when I would apply it, no how much polishing I did to remove the residue, it would always result in glare on the windshield in the sun. Since I am particularly sensitive to light, this causes me more problems than the rain does, so I haven't bothered using the stuff in quite a while.

The Official Autoblog 'First Car' Readership Survey {Autoblog}
Apr 17th 2006 3:03PM Mine's an '84 Toyota Camry (fastback model) and it looks every day of its 22 years (it has its fair share of dents, dings, clunks and rattles.) Got about 216K on the clock, the trunk won't open, the interior's ripped to shreds, and I'm pretty sure it's headed straight to the junkyard once I'm done with it, but the thing just keeps on running, and has needed only one major component replaced in the time I've owned it (a transmission.) Although I do on occasion hesitate to admit it, I still use it as my daily driver.
