And despite what most people will say, they actually get decent mileage.

Chevy Tahoe LS or LT2 trim.   IF you don’t mind lightly pre-owned then you can scoop up a fully loaded LTZ for that amount.

When Buick reintroduced the Roadmaster nameplate in 1990, they sent me something similar on a 5¼” floppy disk.   I thought it was amazing at the time.

Anyone notice that the “morning shift” has slowly become more of a just-before-lunch post?

I’m a southpaw as well.

My guess is because the tire hanging off the back would probably extend too far to the left, and be a hazard for any passing traffic on the street side. That would apply if parked parallel, but also would apply to angle parking, as that left corner would be nearest the street and with the swing gate open it would…

So, you are saying this is more of the typical Jalopnik writing as of late?

I don’t know how long the Atlas has been out (not this cross sport version), but in the past week I’ve gone from never seeing one, to all of a sudden seeing them all over where I live.

The wife’s Suburban is getting fairly worn out. While I’d love to have the IRS of the new model, these savings might just entice me into a trade.

I grew up in a small, rural town, where there was only one spot where people parallel parked. On the day of my driving test, the examiner said, “See that car up there? Pretend there is one in front of it and park between them.”   My dad was a good teacher, and I’m a master at it.  Parallel parking is one of the few…

He said bloodsuckers, so I assumed he was trolling lawyers.

I know it’s not all that similar, but there is enough of a resemblance here, to make me recall the car that Alpha Centauri drove on The Last Starfighter movie.

Ugly and overpriced.

Agree with all that,and.....  it’s ugly.

The line “looks a bit janky”, being written by the king of rust-o patchwork, David Tracy, just made me snort coffee all over my cubicle.

Are those still a thing?  Haven’t seen in a long while.

Agree, and you could still get some sidewall with a 17".

Yes, this! I grew up living on the lake, we had two kitchen drawers full of these. This is the classic original and still the best,but are getting hard to find.  Now, as a taxpaying adult, with a family of my own, I still have a drawer full of the soft “giveaway” koozies. I keep one in my pocket most all the time!

What happened to the Morning-Shift post for today?

Maybe it’s just in Texas and Oklahoma, as I don’t have access to the nationwide sales numbers... but I see way more police package Tahoes, than I do cop Explorers.
