I’m not worried about the sane people voting for whoever is running against Trump. I’m worried about the lazy people who say fuck it and stay home because they’re not “inspired.” There’s a hell for them, too, but time now we need their votes badly. The folks in the backroom at Trump HQ must be giddy after last night.

Even calling this a “replica” is insulting to replicas. Accurate advertising would be “Custom inspired by ’65 AC Cobra.” By this standard the Pontiac Fiero GT Mera could be sold as a 308 GTB replica. CP.

The moment Mrs. Boomer stepped into her friend’s CUV/SUV (doesn’t matter if it was a Kia or a Bentley) and it didn’t hurt her hip and she could “see” guaranteed that a boomer will never, ever buy a car like this. Mr. Boomer might still buy a 911 or a C8, but the family car even for empty nesters will forever more be

Even longer. Impressive momentum and streak going into the All-Star break immediately followed by monumental bed shitting.

... Or you could buy at least a dozen Mazda 323s!

This is truly awesome, but all I keep thinking:

With better cars, too!

I don’t think most Americans seek out Nissans—it’s a function of their credit score landing them in one. Not sure how sustainable that is.

Please, please, please NFL: Flex the Pats-Dolphins game to the Sunday night slot. The whole country really needs to laugh right now.

Dude. I have spent years crisscrossing rural, small-town Pennsylvania. I see so many stars and bars you’d think Lee crushed it at Gettysburg. James Carville was exaggerating a bit, but not that much.

One warning: If you live somewhere with extensive state inspection, you might run into trouble with higher profile tires. I sensibly went -1 on snow tires and wheels for my wife’s Audi. Tire Rack sold them to me and re-confirmed that they were a safe fit for the car, but the rep cautioned me that PA inspectors have

And the Lifetime tie-in for the pink ribbon crowd:

Wow that ad got deleted quickly. Apparently the only thing he’s good at cleaning. Yamato-sized CP.

Rural Georgia is one thing... but Brooklyn??? Beyond a community garden henhouse or two is there any possible viable commercial livestock operation left there? Maybe a small glatt kosher business?

Original and still current owner. Bring the hatch back to the U.S. or GTFO. The e-tron doesn’t count.

Thank you for this, Nate. Always suspected this was the pro sports equivalent of “Lose Yourself.” Fantastic writeup, and all your columns this summer have been been absolute fire. I am totally remiss for not checking out your books sooner.

But it won Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, so...

Absolutely fantastic, spot-on post. Hope the editors are paying attention, because I’d love to see you give this a full-length article treatment. There is so much more automotive reporting to be done and stories to be told from a whole lot of perspectives that rarely make it on Jalopnik.

Actually a gravity feed fuel tank keeping with the “back to basics” theme.
