I’d guess I have about $5k in parts so far. The GX has just over 120k now. It’s scruffy, someone did a poor quality respray at one point, the interior is a little worn but undamaged and functional. I don’t really have a hard budget in mind, just trying to be thoughtful about where I spend money. Depending on where you…

Thanks for the pics, I’ve been trying to find nice clean, bronze wheels to eventually put on my Jeep and yours look amazing.  Method looking like a winner...

Changli life!

Silverado guy overpaid for a poverty spec truck, likely paying 46-48k on it from his description. I paid 44k for my new ‘18 Sierra SLT and it is as close to a Denali Ultimate as you can get without being a Denali Ultimate. Now he wants out because he overpaid for a truck and has negative equity in it and is paying an…

Tires that will wear out aren’t free, either. They will still need to charge these vehicles as well, so there’s already a load of complex charging infrastructure needed. So what if cars are cheaper? It will take more to make up for the fact that each one can only hold 4-5 people. Ever see those comparisons of how much…

I use them anyway and just never flush them. A bathroom trash can with a lid will get you far. I used to live with a septic system, so I adjusted pretty easily, but your mileage may vary as far as always remembering to use the trash. 

Literally one reason: Trump knows EVERY SINGLE ONE of his supporters will tune in and the only reason they will is to beat Biden’s “ratings.” That’s literally it. And then he’ll go on twitter to crow about it for 24 hours straight as proof that he is actually winning (and thus giving him more “evidence” that he’ll get…

Mike Bloomfield was the best. Hendrix, meh.

Where is it written that everyone needs to feel bad when someone dies? If he did not know him or like him for whatever reason, why should people care. It is not like he just said this out of nowhere, someone asked him and he gave an honest answer.

This is what made me stop reading or even clicking on Jalopnik. And I love that site. Way to make things so confusingly obtuse that no one wants to read the site anymore.

These things were trash when they were new (I grew up in one), they were trash when I bought one for 500 bucks 15 years ago for a roadtrip, and they’re trash now.

TOO SOON.

Okay, closed loops in a recessed channel. They could even fold flat. 

Sad but not surprising. I’ve developed a real love/hate relationship with Jalopnik since the shake up. The product has degraded so much. Just today, I sent a legit news tip regarding Uber including photos related to what appears to be a shutdown of Uber’s driverless vehicle program here in Pittsburgh (where it is…

Money.  These large contract deliveries are going to be very low margin deals.  Leasing a bunch of vehicles to a car rental agency in order to keep your factories operating at full capacity is one thing.  Committing your already operating at full capacity factory to building a low margin product instead of a high…

Even with editing you would always see people getting their asses kicked on COPS.

It has been in the news, though. No reason his advisors hadn’t heard of it. 

A free crap taco is still a crap taco.  Support your local taquerias.

It doesn’t matter where you live, they exempt cars brought over by service members from US sources. A buddy of mine had bought a second local “beater” and that had to be inspected, I believe.

Only David Tracy can buy a nearly rust-free car and nearly get defeated by hidden rust.
