Tesla: We will fix many problems with over-the-air updates.

Not sure what to think of that web page. I get that they want my contact info, but if they get enough contacts, will they actually bring it to the USA?

Cool, we’re gonna get a Rav4 with red accents and an angry grill. Sign me up for that newsletter!

Hopefully I’m not reading into this too much, but I’m hoping the fact that they show pictures of the AWD 1.6T drivetrain and the big brakes means that our version of a Toyota hot hatch will be similarly equipped. But then you have this Corolla that has diffs and brakes in line with an STI but the power of a WRX.…

This moment of time in Jalopnik is like watching a train moving 0.5mph crash into a wall of molasses. Very slow, very sure, and very awkward to witness.

Backdrag is a huge thing for ratchets.  Also newer ones typically have higher tooth counts that require less swing in tight spaces to turn a fastener.  I just upgraded from 36t ratchets to 90t and there is much less “slop” when using them.  There is also less play in the drive end than the old ones but that can be…

I want to be a fancy tool person (very much want those Nepros ratchets) but the reality is it is not financially feasible for me to buy all top-end tools. Mid range quality is good enough for a DIY guy like me that even if I break them I can buy many times over for the price of high end. I have recently upgraded my…

Doesn’t sound terrible, but I think they are really missing the chance to merge racing with ball pits. Everyone loves ball pits. (or maybe I just really want to hear an angry Alonso lose his shit when his car gets trapped in the ball pit)

Wasn’t the entire purpose and spirit of the toyobarus to be a canvas in which YOU can easily work on? It provides you with a base that is the bare minimum of acceptable, under the assumption you’d be wrenching on it yourself?

“What do we want?”

Don’t be thinking small. Think BIG. Think Continental. Think New Yorker. Think Delta 88. Tbink about all those smooth-riding malaise-yachts with 150 horsepower lumps. Imagine doubling or tripling the power of one of those things and gliding along in silent splendor...

IF ITS IN ALL CAPS AND GRAMMAR BAD WALK AWAY 

I powerwash my ash off. Want me to come over and blast off your ash, too?

Interesting because season 29, this one, hasn’t aired yet. I think you’ll find you are watching season 28. 

Oh hey there Rory! I have some notes here, as someone who recently traded in my CTS V-Sport. I loved it, mostly. What I don’t understand is why Cadillac de-tuned the engine. The V-Sport made 420 horsepower, while this car, with the same engine, is only putting out 360 horsepower. Why not just uncork it? That makes no…

This looks like a car that the flat brim doucheknuckle who bought Tiger King’s ranch would drive. He has the disposable income [or illicit monies or whatever] to blow money on something that screams “please pay attention to me and my fake racecar”

hey just wanted to say i love you jason and also, subsequently, fuck the haters·

i updated my bookmark to jalopnik.com/latest

I’m about half-way through that book and I agree! The talk about the design of the cars, which includes the FW14B and hearing about the drivers was also pretty rad.

You just described the Porsche 911.
