First, I realize that renting Harleys is nothing new. And maybe I’m just a pessimist. Or maybe I just remember that shortly after Hertz began renting Corvettes, one was crashed into a restaurant in Dallas, and another wound up—upside down, no less—in a canal in Florida. Because that’s what initially came to mind when I […] More »

Shows where guys fix up rusty old junk and flip it have bred like rabbits—or maybe rats, depending on your opinion of the concept—over the last few years. And while I don’t watch most of them, I dig Fast ‘n’ Loud, which follows the dudes at Gas Monkey Garage in Dallas. Most of last week’s […] More »
