MV Agusta: The Official Motorcycle Provider of Bad Idea Jeans (TM).

Many folks on Twitter pointed to Robert Moses, the subject of The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York by Robert Caro.

Hopped in here to note Chicago’s the same way, but it seems as if they’ve improved the CTA/Pace interoperability over the years since I’ve lived there, so perhaps it’s not as (logistically) segregated as it once was?

Because every time we even think about funding Amtrak the idiots come racing to howl that it’s a boondoggle, waste of taxpayer money, etc.

“Failed” = sold plenty and inspired an entirely new separate marque.

Yeah I chuckled at the use of the word “even” in that sentence, as if probably half of all plain old motorcycles today can’t go sub-4 seconds.

That little aircooled 350 produces an impressive 20.2 horsepower and 19 lb-ft of torque.

I wish!  That’d mean I’d be rich, rather than slumming it here with my fellow Jalops.

I’ll believe it when I see it.  For now, it’s just another press release and bait for Jalopnik to complain about Tesla again.

Crack-a-lackle pipe.

None of the 109 expeditioners and crew onboard the MPV Everest were hurt when a fire broke out in an engine room

Most motorcycle crashes are caused by oncoming motorists making left turns in front of motorcycles.

The truck on his right had him boxed, and who knows what vehicle was on his left.

The amount of stuff I’m able to carry in my Cayman “hatchback” puts plenty of cars to shame.  Even with a shallow trunk (t0 match the deeper frunk), it’s just so darn useful compared to a standard trunk.

... and you’ll be buying an overpriced electric truck that won’t be able to do what you use your Tacoma to easily do today because EV technology won’t combine market-desirable hauling performance and range for years to come.

Finally, special credit for anyone who can say convincingly that the correct answer is that NO electric truck will ever be mass-produced.

Crack pipe. I want a Ranger, you want a Ranger, everybody wants a Ranger... but this is not the Ranger anyone wants.

On one hand, this car isn’t a bad base for a restoration, or even a Max Max-style rat mod.

Sit in one.  To anyone who remembers what cars used to be like just 15 years ago, the Telluride is definitely high class.

We know we can’t keep marching in this direction
