Subaru driver here, and I do cross-shop for alternatives.  I’m also frugal, so what I want is somewhere between what is offered by Subaru and the up-market offerings of Volvo and Audi.....without going to a full on CUV/SUV (no, I don’t think the Crosstrek or Outback are CUVs, just cars with more than rubber bands for

Next QOTD: “What is the most illiterate headline you’ve ever seen on Jalopnik?

It is an epidemic, to the point where it has become acceptable (not to me): "I should have went" etc. On the other hand, more education would not be bad - and maybe, just maybe an editor?

Other than the grammar in the headline, there are no surprises here.  Those who have more money are buying at higher prices while those without money aren’t buying.  See many entry level models being introduced?  Not even the Honda Civic should be considered an entry level model; remember the Fit.  The only entry

Wayon’s subtext: “Oh shit, if he can stay relevant I can stay relevant by attacking a group of people!” Kevin Hart should be Tweeting in 3...2...1...

Also, “...you know, as an artist he’s Van Gogh.”

Victoria, I really like your writing style. Keep um coming as you crisscross the US. I loved the story about no headlight coming down the Mt Lemmon hwy. I used to live there 

This was a great read. That’s definitely some impressive navigation with such low visibility. Can’t wait to see more pictures and hopefully have more writeups from the event.

The Sturgis Motorcycle rally which includes a bunch of outdoor music and drinking (let’s call it a festival for people with Harley’s) caused a 700%+ surge in cases in South Dakota.

“Hey, Fyre Festival? It’s your cousin, Coachella. You know those horrible decisions you made? Well listen to THIS

I honestly would not read too much into it. I read the Salon article, and thought it was overwrought and based on some pretty tenuous arguments. There is maybe 2-3% of black flag wavers intending it to be threatening to 97-98% just thinking it looks cool.

And all of them will rejoice in triggering the libs if we allow

I was hoping it’d tell you that this truck is comfortable, but doesn’t really stand out otherwise.

The question is not if drivers are inattentive because we all know that drivers are inattentive regardless of the amount of automation in the car. The key question is if these automation systems are safer than human drivers. I personally know 2 people that damaged their cars when they fell asleep while driving and

Wow, that’s basically the municipal equivalent of the Spanish Ecce Homo restoration.

So they just straight up went Mr. Bean?

Good thing level 3 doesn’t exist. Not subscribing to it will save folks a lot of money.

Alas! I owned an XJ for a few weeks of light offroading (with a different engine; the VM Motori diesel), and it felt as though everything broke in those weeks. Glowplugs failed; the cooling system was beyond hope even before the head cracked; fuel lines leaked; cracked cabin heater matrix; broken trim; electric window

I was gonna vote NP, but then I saw the bit about the seller cancelling a previous sale and jacking up the price. Now it is a solid ND for the jackass seller.

It burns the eyes.  

I’m sorry. What was the question?

Both of my cars have this amazing feature:
