Sorry to see his passing. Conservativism and irreverence, both in heavy doses, are sorely missing in our world.
One of his best works, I believe. Car & Driver has resurrected it in his honor:
For the record, those Gamecock fans weren't going to Tuscaloosa, they were going to Legion Field to watch their Heisman winner George Rogers lead them in the All America Bowl. I went to that game.
Also, for younger readers, feel free to exchange Iranians for Taliban/Isil/Al Quaeda, Brock Adams and Joe Califano for Pete Buttgieg and Ocasio-Cortez, and you can exchange Ralph Nader for, well, Ralph Nader.
RTR,
Tim

Ferrari Reinvents Manifest Destiny: P.J. O'Rourke Drives Cross-Country in a Ferrari 308GTS
We remember the late satirist and essayist with this classic story from 1980 in which he streaks westward in a 308GTS.
