“We’re all really brothers and sisters with Mohamed, in that we have a fascination with what technology can do and a healthy urge to tinker and try things.”

There wasn’t an agenda; it’s just a story that I felt strongly enough about to rant like this. I make ugly things with wires, and have since I was a kid. That kid could have been me, if I was growing up where he was, in this time.

The Dallas News video is heartbreaking when the kid says “It made me feel like I wasn’t human, it made me feel like a criminal.”

Now this young man who was excited about science and engineering is possibly being charged on some trumped up bullshit all while American students continue to fall behind the rest of the…

Spoiled brats. The ownership of these cars should be transferred to the Jalopnik Vehicular Rehabilitation Center to tend these cars back to their pre royal family state.

Nice!! Can Mercedes bring these ones back?

I think we all need a palate cleanser / reality check after that.

“Mercedes has already done an impressive job turning their once appealing and utilitarian G-Wagen into a leather-slathered, overdone block of idiot, but it takes the real magicians over at Brabus to push the Mercedes-Benz G500 4x4² to the true limits of stupid.”

merc dealer: I want a visual abortion that makes no sense in every observable way.
Brabus: tons of power; major speed limitations, tons of clearance ; super polished amenities on the external go rough parts, lots of space ; smells like a cobblers masturbatorium, the engineer who went insane from trying to tune the…

If I was wealthy and wanted a way to show off my wealth, I’d rather carry around ATM receipts than drive this. It looks like something from GTA that Dan Hauser created that was meant to make fun of stupid people with money, rather than actually look appealing to most people. Following of course the tagline of the…

Couldn’t resist... also, she’s hot.

As somebody that’s seen the E65 7 series rolling around in the hood with large rims, I can agree with that.

They depreciate a hell of a lot less quickly than 7s.

I remember how criminal the acts performed on that Roller were...

Yes, that was great! Now if only 3/4 of the episode wasn’t wasted talking about how much money Richard lost...

An episode of Chasing Classic Cars, abridged:

Wayne Carini wakes up, drives around the block, finds random barn, jiggles the handle *unlocked*, finds 1967 Lamborghini Miura SV abandoned, gets titled for $300, sells at auction for $5.2 million, “it was an OK price. I’m not thrilled.”

Maybe I’m beginning to show my age, but I used to always watch Shadetree Mechanic with Dave Bowman and Sam Memolo (I think that’s his name) and growing up it really did actually show you how to work on some vehicle basics, brakes, adjusting valves, etc... Maybe it wasn’t the most lively show but it centered on cars. I…

Indeed. I restrict my badmouthing to Volkswagen and Comcast.

There’s probably a difference between people who know they’re taking part in an evacuation drill for FAA certification and the usual random air travelers who never pay attention to the safety briefings, exit locations, or emergency procedures. Grabbing luggage wouldn’t help, of course, but we are talking about the…

Pleasantly surprised I had to scroll down this far to see the first idiot make this comment. Please find your page at www.Gawker.com
