While I do agree this practice is bullshit and needs to end, why the hell should anyone have any sympathy for a person who goes for it? Ms. Morales had every opportunity to leave the dealership without a new car and take her business elsewhere. She decided to sign on the dotted line for a 15% interest rate on an…

You are correct. Much as people whine about them, the NRA was like #239 on Open Secrets as a political donor. They spend a lot more on lobbying and “outside spending” (which I interpret as ad buying), but they’re not buying anybody outright.

TSA is now and always has been bad kabuki security. Barely trained employees stare at screens and paw around in luggage without a clue as to what they are looking for or what do if they found something. I would rather have an experienced bar bouncer doing airport security because at least they have a bullshit detector…

I love the looks of the C3, I just wish they weren’t the official car of the emperor of the trailer park.

Luckily Ford isn’t having any of that CVT malarkey.

If you can’t get it with a manual trans, it’s not a sport sedan.

I feel like out of the 3 “American” automakers right now... Ford is the only one doing things right. Dodge and Chevy just don’t get it.

So the big question I have been wondering for some time is how will police departments make their money for the year? If they can’t reach their ticket quotas, because the AI will be programmed to follow the law. Will police be able to do their jobs again or will they just shut down stations?

1st Gear: This demonstrates the fundamental problem with CAFE. Forcing the manufacturers to make small, fuel efficient cars doesn’t change what people want to buy. To quote Bob Lutz, “reducing fuel consumption by forcing automakers to sell smaller and more frugal vehicles is like fighting the nation’s obesity epidemic…

This guy’s mind is gonna be blown when he finds out where Top Gun is based.

Neutral: Are Sedans Doomed?

Not to give the truck driver any credit but the Nissan driver wasn’t passing anyone and looked to just be blocking him in the passing lane, intentionaly. There seems to be enough blame to go around with this one.

They don’t seem to be doing very much passing. Most all road rage is two people being assholes, and one winning. The loser plays the victim.

Which I have a hunch that nobody will buy.

Non-political Jalopnik is better than political Jalopnik.

I’d paint everything this color.

Wait. The private sector comes through again?

It’s the least we can do. Considering all that the Pentagon gets wrong with Vets and other topics, they get this right. Maybe you would feel different if you had a family member or friend that died in a foreign land and never even had dignity or being returned home for closure. It is a hell that haunts many to this…
