Grand Nationals are cool as fuck.

The only car guys more insufferable than Grand National guys are Corvette Guys. The big difference is that the dude with the totally unique ‘Vette on Facebook (there were only 3500 in baltic blue, only 1000 of those had the teal top, only 304 of those were automatics, only 3 of those had the fin hubcaps, and of those

That, and their social media homepage banner is a shot of their truck.

I agree with this. I like Kendrick, but his style is very lyric-focused and his songs don’t really have big hooks or catchy parts in the same way as the other artists you mentioned. The audio at the Superbowl feed was also a bit rough and made it way harder to understand him. Combine these things together with what

In a vacuum? The performance was great. I think part of the issue is that he doesn’t have any songs that mainstream America would even recognize. Usher, Eminem, Rihanna, The Weeknd... hell, even Drake does. Lamar is a master at his craft, but I question him as a halftime show headliner for the Super Bowl.

My wife and I are about 10 years older than your wife. Our kids are out of college and already starting to calcify on what music they like, just like by the time I was out of college, I was sort of keeping up with Grunge, but had (still have) a thing for New Wave.

The brain rot has fully set in, and MAGAts live to debase themselves for Daddy Donnie’s amusement.

I would say Nickelback, but Canadian imports are about to become too expensive.

What’s wild is I’m 38, my wife is 46, and we have varying ages of kids, and everyone knew who the artists were, and enjoyed the show when we tuned in. Honestly, it was the only part of the superbowl we watched.

I’m actively trying to not be like my parents who were severely out of touch with anything popular or modern

JFC.  Was Johnson trying to win a most cringe comment contest?  

Honestly, you’d be stupid to not just make your own if you want a driver. That’s what we did as broke ass teens with 60's cars. We scoured junkyards, flea markets, classifieds looking for the best bits. Now, you have your choice of very nice repro parts they will bring right to you.

Why are all their selfies taken from the driver’s seat?  This is an odd phenomenon but so true.

Who told all those white people to wear their late ninteties Revo cool guy wrap-around sunglasses?

Put in the 2.0L I-4 Turbo from the Envision (228 hp instead of 137 hp) and call it a Grand National.

I mean, the only question is, “Do you want to make more money, Buick?”

MAGA freaks are losing their minds over that show:

That’s...actually a handome little CUV.  I hate that’s it’s a handsome little CUV.  Now I’m sort of interested...

Purists will hate this, but put a more normal engine in the Envista and make a GNX trim package. Price it right and it could be a decent hit. I would love to see black with that retro orange/red turbo graphic, black and gray cloth seats.

I get that these are “rare”. But it’s not like an old supercar rare. GM made 1 Bazillion G-bodies and you can easily make a “GNX”.

It was real:
