"we use to bullseye wamprats in my F-16 back home, and they're not much bigger than 2 meters"

Fuck ethanol.

Eagleford, Haynesville, MidCon... It isn't helping that the fear mongers of mass media incessantly lie about fracking, the process that brought us out of the 2008 recession. We're already seeing signs of major cutbacks in our frac crews. Scary stuff.

Ugh. Energy negative and dirtier (cradle to tailpipe) than gasoline.

The reasons Germans return their shopping carts are that (a) there's a EUR 1 (just over a dollar) deposit on them (German labor being so expensive, the shops can't just hire people to collect them in the lot all the time) and (b) the parking lots at shopping centers are so tight that just leaving them out would be

Quality on Volkswagen??? Really My sister got a new Jetta with less than 20k miles and so far they replaced the A\C compressor, the ignition, the battery, the heater on seats. Plus their service charge for an oil change and rotation is a 100 plus. I got a civic at the same time with the same millage that only have

You are daft, you know that? On a US centered website a US driver and writer talks about how Volkswagen failed to meet its US sales goals and you are sticking up your nose because "BUT THE REST OF THE WORLD?!!?"

What tipped police off to the fact that one of their own was involved with organized crime? When he showed up to work — to

VW sucks.

Another (completely anecdotal) reason VW sales suck is because, well, maybe VWs suck?! I am the (once proud) owner of a 2013 Passat. Started having trouble opening the driver side front door from the outside. Now, the driver side door wont...latch...shut. It's 2015. We haven't figured out how to engineer a door

Isn't their main problem that they make unreliable vehicles that have the maintenance and repair cost of a luxury brand without providing either the:

Doug, that line of logic implies that I am an actual car buyer, when in reality, I am an irrational auto enthusiast fantasy shopper. I want to build a lime green, 5-door, manual, diesel, fully loaded Touaereauag...and I want to know how much it will cost to lease that bad boy.

Here is my personal summation of VW in a paragraph:

To carry out this task, I like to play a little game called: How badly did Subaru beat Volkswagen this year? I started playing this game last year, when Volkswagen – an enormous, powerful, multi-national conglomerate who creates new sales targets by adding zeroes to previous ones – delivered fewer cars than Subaru,

"I almost pulled the trigger.." ..50% of jalop comments start with this. 99% of the time it's bullshit.

Well that's not a QP, that's a tuned QP. The last gen QP was hideous, the new one is better. Even a shitty bodykit will make the old QP look better. Neither comes close to the GT in any flavor.

Venerial, I've never in my entire life heard that, with the exception of first grade. smh

LS swap that Beemer

Nice catch. I think he meant 44,999 lbs with a clear "don't get gas until you are past the weigh station" directive.

The biggest shame is the 1.5psi combined with cold tires keeping him from counter-steering.
