You get no disagreement from me whatsoever. :)

Ah yes. I should have picked up the reference.

I’m not entirely sure what this is a reference to. Kinda wish I did.

At no point did I claim to speak for *our people* as an entire group. I was merely saying that we could all choose to relax and look at it for what it was, a poor attempt at a joke that had no malicious intent. There are battles worth fighting, and I don’t think this is one of them.

As the official gay, brown AWD diesel wagon owner of Jalopnik (self-appointed, you’re welcome), I’d like to chime in. It wasn’t offensive, I’m not triggered, everyone freaking out needs to relax. It was a bad attempt at a joke, it wasn’t funny, he knew it didn’t play well, he wasn’t trying to be offensive. Also,…

I’m still offended. Someone get me to a safe space. :)

Y’all know this is basically a 4th gen Subaru Outback, right? RIGHT?

Wha... wha... what am I looking at?

The Catera... it’s the Caddy that zigs! (I’ll see myself out now...)

I’m gonna need a few minutes alone with this image.....

+1 for the six-syllable word.

Everybody has their thing. No harm. I *hate* VW - I don’t know a single person who currently has one, or has had one, that wasn’t a repeat-offender of something ridiculously broken. Add in Dieselgate, and frankly I wouldn’t mind if the company died. To each their own. I also am a big fan of Mazda, fwiw. My partner has…

This unsolicited ad brought to you by The Subaru Outback, Honda XR 250 and 400 dirt bikes, Specialized Rock Hopper mountain bikes, and Pearl Jam. *throws horns*

But that vehicle has a fatal flaw: It’s a VW.

The Merc is really quite good. That little 2.1L has a ton of torque (369 lb/ft). It gets on pretty impressively well.

Somewhat off-topic, but I just bought an AWD, brown, diesel, wagon. Amirite? :)

My brown diesel wagon is being delivered to my house as we speak. No, really, not kidding. No manual, but it’s a small sacrifice. Oh and it’s AWD. (see below)

Flappy paddles! *clap* *clap* *clap clap clap*

Released on May 16, 2000. *Throws horns*
