Your own pie chart says their was. The vote was 52%/48% Leave. That, last I checked is a majority. The vote had a 72% voter turn-out. That almost 13 million people didn’t bother to cast their choice in the matter is irrelevant; you don’t vote you don’t get a say in the aftermath - simple as that. I always hear the…

Then what was the point of the referendum if they aren’t held to following it. The vote was clear and remain lost. Trying to find loopholes and heel dragging will only make matters worse. Out right giving the political middle finger to the vote outcome because”you know better” is a quick way too finding yourself on…

Like Parliament isn’t going to pass it. They have no choice. They had a vote, a decision was rendered, that some don’t like it is of no matter. If they were to say “well we in power don’t agree with the majority of the people so sod off, we aren’t leaving” there would be riots and London would burn to the ground. And…

First of all, welcome Maggie to becoming an official Jalopnik writer. I’m looking forward to reading more posts from you.

The shifter design is poor, right up there with Mercedes and BMW’s electronic column shifters. It looks like a regular shifter but doesn’t operate like it’s conventional counterparts, as everyone would expect. Thus issues like this. Had they gone with a design totally different, like the shift knobs in Jags or their…

No, the ridgeline isn’t a new idea, just one that is being finessed. Not unlike modern CUVs have, which have pretty much displaced the old pickup based/manually selected 4wd SUVs of 20 years ago. At some point,if trucks stay popular, there will be a shift in the joe-average truck market to something like the Honda…

When I visited Australia a few years ago the waterfront in Cairns was littered with these:

I do too. Having to put up with all that flak, mean comments on Twitter, people wanting you to die, and none of it really any of your fault; you just have the misfortune of sharing the same name as some obnoxious twit who is famous in Britain who is pissing all over a beloved car show for his own amusement. Let’s just…

Yeah, the very useful bumper steps predate Ford’s tailgate step and grab bar, which is limited in its actual usefulness and compromises an already crappy strength tailgate. I’ll take bumper steps any day. And you don’t look silly using them either.

Idoubt he considers your Canyon a real truck either. As for the “only” 5000lb tow rating, few people need even that much and even though many 1/2 tons can tow 10,000+ ( when properly optioned, which most aren’t) many of the guys I see towing that much with their 1/2 ton can’t drive to save their life anyway with the…

Not that I am hugely up on the nuances of EU rules, but pretty sure no one can legally stop/prevent the UK from leaving if they choose to. I know financial groups have threatened shenanigans if they do, but that can be a two way street. And the US can’t force the UK to do anything when it isn’t even part of the…

Or at the very least, Evans needs to be like he was in the ExtraGear F1 spot all the time. When we were watching that, I said out loud, “This is more like it. Why can’t he be like this?” His talking about the F1 was much more natural and authentic. When he is doing the segments in studio and in car for TG, he is over…

Or how about just not have it? Or have the ex, if there must be one, be the person they are performing the heist against? I’ve come to the realization today that I’m tired of forced romances in films that aren’t romance films. If the point of the story isn’t the characters getting together ultimately (which Ocean’s 11…

Except the Camry isn’t any of those things better than an Accord or a Mazda6, both of which I would immediately take over a Camry. I too would not have a Camry for any price, even free if it meant I couldn’t immediately trade it for something better. Yes, it is competent, but honestly no more so than it’s competition,…

Your summary was spot on. I’d like to add that the F1 spot with Evans showed that he doesn’t have to be a raving, shouting maniac when doing a test of a car. It was honest, genuine and that feeling is what has been missing from anything Chris does on the show, either in-car or in-studio. I think part of this is why…

“Best” is a relative term. The Camry is the “best” at boring, yet reliable transportation. You can do better and still have the reliable part, and not be induced into a coma.

Well, the electronic nannies could just be tossed - weight savings and all ;)

Yeah, the lines are very much an Evora. It’s like the owner went “I want an Evora, but I want Italian reliability (hahahaha) so Ferrari make me an Evora.

Front Crash Prevention is the active auto-stop system some cars are employing now which automatically apply the brakes if the sensors detect a possible collision. The Camaro doesn’t offer the system, so hence the ‘not available’ and why IIHS dings it in it’s ratings putting the Mustang higher. Frankly the lack of that…

You’re over exaggerating the (lack of) performance these cars exhibited in these tests. None of these cars did “poor”, and only the Challenger performed under-whelmingly in the ratings scale, and that is not unreasonable considering the car is an 8 year old design performing to the latest standards. Looking at the…
