I really, REALLY want to know how the trade-ins worked. How many brand new Kias did they have to give away to manage getting even one of those trade ins? Did the guy trading in the Aventador like walk in and say “I’ll trade my Lambo in for a full collection of Kias, one of every model”? :D

If luggage has the potential to end up in your lap or bopping you in the back if you stepped on the gas or brake pedals too hard, then it is not a trunk. That aside, this is a kei car, so they had to work within size constraints. eliminating separate, traditional cargo areas helped with that.

GM using the Colorado’s platform and mostly in-inventory components for their military contract for the Infantry Squad Vehicle gives them more offroad credibility today than a company that hasn’t produced any military vehicles in almost 50 years.

No wonder Intel has spent years behind the curve in the last decade or so. The company is run by an absolute moron. Electronics in cars or on such an old “standard” because they spent billions perfecting it before it even launched. If some chip in your computer goes bad while you’re using it, you have a dead computer.…

Ahem. Former Jalopnik contributor Steve Lehto called and wants his drum back. :D

Thanks to the b33r bug, things have gotten so bad that RVs are shipping from the factories with essential equipment missing.... like fasteners. Some have shipped without plumbing... they’ve got like faucets and stuff, but the drains lead nowhere but the cabinet und3rneath, and they’re missing stuff like the storage…

Adds more weight to Carlos Ghosn recent claims that Nissan’s best days are behind them.

Remember, when you find a bunch of them in your driveway, the government is spying on you! ;3

You say that like nobody ever mentioned to you that cars are supposed to be driven on roads...

About a decade ago, New Jersey forced quite a few towns in the south end of the state to remove speed bumps on their roads. Turns out that A LOT of the bumps were installed to specifications decided by the local towns when state law actually has specifications. Virtually all those removed bumps were too high or too…

Seems like nobody has yet thought to ask the important question. “What the hell are US regulators doing, allowing this confusion inducing nonsense on the road? Driver’s Ed never included a discussion of what to expect when someone’s car has a blinker pointing the wrong way for that side of the vehicle. “Are they…

I’m in the middle of making a 3d-printed RC version of this.

My full size 1994 Honda Accord gets better mileage than this thing with 34 MPG. Someone didn’t take proper car of this vehicle. And way, WAY too overpriced, as my Accord is only worth $2k in excellent working condition.

The biggest takeaway here today is Raphael Orlove suffers from some extreme and horrid brain damage because he thinks the water that results from burning hydrogen is magically a form of pollution instead of water, thus making hydrogen use as a fuel no different than burning gasoline or diesel.

Of course he knew it was stolen - He ran instead of pulling over and taking his traffic citation. And why on earth would he not run the VIN on a vehicle he obtained in the last few months? He knew it was stolen.

No, the primary goal is to not pay employees. The company has been engaged in such practices against its employees for most of its history. They have engaged in this behavior against last mile delivery drivers, truckers, and warehouse workers. The only employees I am aware of not having  been subjected to this…

For April Fool’s Day, you should take a riff off DeMuro’s videos and give a vehicle a “Torch Score”. Just be sure to make it clear the Torch Score has nothing to do with lighting the test-driven vehicle on fire. But do make sure to make some amusing comment about it being a hot take on a competing reviewer’s styling.…

Eventually, some other state is going to see this as a gold mine opportunity to provide registration and tags to out-of-state residents. Kind of like how buses tend to get registered in particular states... or the infamy of registering in Montana.

You overlooked something. They are placeholders for an undisclosed set of lights, because they said those light strips aren’t the final lights, either.

Strangely sounds like he may have watched Outlaw Star and Bodacious Space Pirates a few times too many...
