This isn’t in reaction to anything the article said, but the overall feeling in the Jalopnik comments about trucks. Just seems insane to me that we draw such a hard line between our impractical decisions and theirs.

Blah, blah, blah, people are stupid, they don’t even use them as trucks, blah, blah, blah, they should buy wagons instead.

Testi wanted Blake arrested but couldn’t resist a chance to be the bigger man.

What a fucking shock.

Listen, I like my fair share of hooning from time to time, but this dude’s a retard. Unless you’re actually Ken Block and get neighborhoods shut down to do this shit, it’s legitimately dangerous. Not to mention completely inconsiderate.

Yeah, your dune buggy is legit bro, we all see that. So you…

Because only dogs sit.. right?

So let me get this straight, your main argument against DiCaprio winning an Oscar is: the lack of dialogue in this film? You being a critic should know it is not just dialogue that makes an actor worthy of an Oscar, but their ability to make you believe what you are seeing one screen e.g. emotional, psychological, and…

You’ve just explained why Lincoln won’t go the sporty RWD route. Cadillac already did it and they’re still way behind the Germans in sales volume. Why should FoMoCo go chasing sales from established players (BMW & MB) when Cadillac is already doing that exact same thing and having marginal success?

He likely read “1st runner up” as “1st place”.

Why the fuck do we expect a professional football player’s political leanings to match identically to our own, to the point we need to crucify him in the media for it if they do not? What exactly does football have to do with politics? Are celebrities not allowed to have thoughts that don’t align perfectly with our…

Kind of a no-brainer. The efficiency improvements could make a huge dent in the CAFE requirements. Sure, some could pull the “Ain’t gonna have no ‘lectric stuff in my truck” bit, just as Chevy plays the “aluminum = beer cans” angle. But as Ford has discovered, truck buyers will go for a turbo 6 over a V-8, they’ll buy…

Who cares what they look like if they’re functional? I have a friend that works for a moving company and he says that every single one of his coworkers have these because they serve a purpose and they’re durable. You don’t want wires in the way when you’re moving stuff or running or doing whatever kind of work that…

“Better” trucks now might not be better trucks later...I hope they are, but people stick with what they know.

*facepalm*

They didn't fix the bearing issue on the 911 until the 997.2, which I believe was either the 2008 or 2009 model year.

While I don't defend the bikers and I seriously don't think that many did. I think most people despise the guy for running them down in the first place. I understand that he felt threatened BUT when I saw the video the first encounter didn't seem that dangerous until he ran over the bikers. at that point you know shit…
