Grew up in a 90/91 version of this with the V6 and auto. By the time I was able to drive it the thing had a thick blue cloud that followed it everywhere. If you hit the brakes too hard it would stall too. Which was odd since it was an auto but it still did it.

This one also has the upgraded a568 trans instead of the a555 trans, your diesel should have the 568 as well. Anyway the shifting is much improved vs the a555 trans. A friend has one. We put the Chrysler intercooled Garrett turbo on it which is larger than the tiny mitsu turbo, added a ported head, water/air…

I got walked by one at Wednesday Night Drags once! It was wearing slicks and obviously had some other tricks up its sleeve, but, either way, a fucking 80s minivan turning high 12s in the 1/4 is pretty damn cool if you ask me.

Somewhat related, last weekend I went to pick up my rental vehicle for a family trip to OBX. I had reserved a “Standard SUV”, but the one that was returned the night before had some damage. Enterprise guy offers me an “upgrade” to a van. He shows me a shiny blue 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan. I’m a bit disappointed - no…

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.

Love how this site has lost so many staffers that a huge chunk of the “staffers” contributing to this roast aren’t even current members of staff.

Donald Trump in heels and a wig?

Ask Peter Thiel.

How many abortions do you think she’s had?

As another lawyer (starting my own 25th year of practice ...), the carelessness with which this guy breaks privilege with his client raises a lot of flags with me about the care - or potential lack thereof - with how he may conduct the rest of his practice. 

Holy fuck... Did somebody say “Youth Pastor”... 

We just need to get past this ‘Republican values’ bullshit we keep bandying about.

As a reformed Catholic and former altar server, this is gold.

In the name of the Father [thrust] the Son [thrust] and the Holyeeeaaaaaaaahhhhh!

Sad to see you go man! Hope the new site is excellent!

This is the pedantry I come to Jalopnik for.

No forgiveness for using Arial and Century Gothic on interior switchgear. Why!! Send that designer into the corner.   These fonts are knock-offs of other fonts, and it’s never okay to use them.

Wait, one of these gun-humping pro-sky wizard GOP figures is a hypocrite?!

“Donald Trump in heels” = Donald Trump. He just hides the high heels on the inside of his shoes.
