Anyone who’s stumbled into the comments section of one of these low mileage old cars knows this comment. The words and tone change slightly, but it’s always there, ready and waiting for the rest of the commentariat to show up.

Bald/tires should do an article that is practically a verbatim copy of The Onion’s “Man…

You mean other cities don’t list their equivalent of 1/4 acre lots with piles of rubble and a Portapotty, with gorgeous views of English Bay, for $3.5m?

They also sold the Mazda 5 for a while that had a niche following. 

I’m finding that I routinely need to haul more people than my compact hatchback can, and also my side-hustle involves hauling lumber and sheet goods, therefore I’m buying a minivan next month. However, it will not be a $40K brand-new model, it will be a $10K Grand Caravan because I can get one that’s only a few years…

A 9mm socket...

“Hurts my brain” in a title actually hurts my brain.

Didn’t they codename the Vette a Blue Devil for a GM exec at one point. If he’s still there, I bet he’s suggesting they put 665 HP on the plastic engine cover in blue and then instruct every “engineering executive” (read marketing fluff) to mention it’s a little underrated because that’d how GM likes to do things with…

The idea of “peak oil” was that the lifestyle changes people were going to have to make to give up oil were inevitable anyway so they might as well just go along. One whole side of the debate didn’t want to bother convincing everybody else, they just wanted to have a concept they could use to dismiss the opposing…

Must be their new Ferrari competitor as both have prancing horse badges and a propensity for immolation.

It’s a jeep thing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Toyota - We haven’t changed the 4Runner in 20 years and it is selling better today than it ever has!

Bradley has informed me that China’s trains make it the bomb and much much better than America in the most important ways.

But getting wined, dined, and put up in nice hotels is perfectly acceptable? Those all have monetary value and are direct gifts. But owning stock is too much? What about owning index funds?

China is kicking America’s ass in so many ways it’s no longer funny.
