And that’s even before considering your Mustang is out to kill you and everyone else while it’s on the road. Heck, other vehicles trying to wreck you are ultimately doing society a service.

You wrote, “It’s got a manual transmission, a rev-happy engine up front, rear-wheel drive, a tendency toward oversteer. If Mazda dropped a new Miata with those figures, every single person reading this would be crying joyful tears...”

A Wrangler at least gives you unique driving experience vs everythign else on the road, be it car or SUV built on a car platform. Everything drives so relatively “well” from a technical perspective that it’s fun to have something kind of crappy and compromised. It feels special. Crazy right? But that’s a think. If I’m…

Rear visibility is probably the worst I’ve seen in any vehicle:

Cadillac wants their shitty c pillar kink back

Oh NOW I see why I don’t like it: it’s already dated as hell. It’s got that “sedan crossover” look that has always sucked, like the X6 or the ZDX

Isn’t that what’s become of Jalopnik?

Here’s a professor at USC who was fired for saying a Chinese word that sounds like an English slur: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2020/09/08/professor-suspended-saying-chinese-word-sounds-english-slur

I feel like it’s wrong that I find this funny. I can’t figure out who this is for.

It would be something.

You, sir, need to put down the crack pipe.  It could be a salvage title with a bent frame and still be worth $4K.

Yeah it’s a weird narrative of this article. For the first 90%, it’s trying to highlight a case of cops being overly aggressive. And then barsanti waits till the last sentence to drop in the minor detail that there was a loaded gun in the car, like it’s an afterthought, rather than justification for the cop’s behavior.

i hate to say it, I’m a blood-red bleeding heart liberal, but the dude in the car ACTUALLY WAS CHARGED WITH GUN POSSESSION. Which kind of makes the “allegedly had a gun in the car” part seem like, you know, a valid concern which was correctly identified and intervened on? Like, I get it, it probably had to do with two…

I don’t understand this story, nor the super opinionated and seemingly super informed reactions.

...with an an armed passenger.

Cops are told someone in the car has gun. Cops pull car over and act aggressively because someone told them there’s a gun in the car. Cops find gun in car.

There are three phases of “dream car ownership” for men.

Man, it must suck having such bad taste in comedy to think Tim Heidecker isn’t funny at all.
