( jalopnik.com )

What Is The First Car You Thought Was Cool? One of the most important family activities for me growing up was the side-lot car show.

LPT: If you’re going on a road trip with a car full of passengers, or have a whole lot of luggage have a small tarp in your trunk in case you have a flat. Getting to your spare tire with a trunk full of stuff isn’t possible unless you take said stuff out. If you don’t have a lot of stuff or passengers then you can put your stuff inside on the seats, but if everything is chock-full, your stuff will have to go on the dirty side of the road. Bonus if it’s raining. You can lay the tarp down and put yo…
