Norm Wants: Convertible Dodge Dakota

By -
In my searchings of the odd, unusual, weird and wonderful of the automotive world, I had come across the 1988/1989 Dodge Dakota Convertible.

Yes, its a pickup truck. Yes, its a convertible. Yes, if you want to store anything valuable in your car, you need to buy something else.

Yes, it seems like a really dumb idea. But think of it as a more practical Jeep Wrangler and all of a sudden... I want one. Specifically, I want this one, which I found on eBay:

Top 10 Ways to Not Suck at Driving

There are a lot of shitty drivers out there. Actually, most people are shitty drivers. They don't really know anything about cars, about driving, about limits of adhesion, how to react when things go badly, or what snow does to your ability to drive. In fact, most people think that driving slowly, regardless of what lane you are in, whether you are merging onto a highway or holding up 50 cars behind you, means "being a good driver." Just because you have spent many years driving in the left lane at 65mph does not make you a good driver, in fact, just the opposite. A good driver means you know how to drive, not that you have gotten lucky or simply average for the past 10 years. Personally, I would love to see a class in high school devoted to driving.

Right now, the driving exam is basically a joke, it means that you know what the pedals...

Recently I wrote about the 10 best doomsday survival shelters in the world . These make sense - they are for continuity of government, they are so mankind will survive, they are all about long-term planning or strategic defense. But, I just came across a brand new show on Discovery - "Doomsday Bunkers" - and it's stupid. Interesting, but stupid. It turns out that there is a whole community of people out there who believe Y2K is still coming think Fallout 3, the Book of Eli, or Mad Max is just around the corner. And so they are "prepping" - getting ready for the zombie apocalypse. The craziest of them - or perhaps just the most obsessive or those with the most money.... spend $50,000-$1,000,000 building underground bunkers to protect themselves from... something. Cozy... I hope you like Progresso   And that's where the idiocy comes in: they don't know what they are protecting themselves from. The vast majority of them are built to offer...
