Weekly Roundup: Things Went Better Than Expected Edition

Truthfully, I could have put myself anywhere between the edge of John's new kicker ramp and the sidewalk --- he cleared the nine-foot gap and landed on the concrete with no trouble. But he was worried about hurting me. Back in the Riverside Green days I'd line a bunch of kids up and bunnyhop all of them. Sometimes I miscalculated and landed on somebody. You cannot make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

Speaking of --- here's the omelet for this week.

At TTAC, I asked for reader feedback on a pickup purchase, answered a reader question about unusual FWD cars, and discussed how to handle a correction.

For R&T, I dared to question watercooled-Porsche residuals and railed against insurance companies.

It's been great to have the week at home to catch up, but time waits for no man and it's almost time to get back on the road... luckily my son and I still have the weekend to get in some trouble!
