Yeah. It’s bullshit. Especially when the DEC is able to take 2 strike power boats in the reservoirs. Those excursions probably do more damage to water quality than 3 or 4 years worth of heavy non-ICE recreational boating would. But that is pure speculation on my part.

Yeah, I agree. I have to drive from north of NYC to DC frequently. I get stuck in a lot of traffic and just want / need to be comfortable to avoid fatigue. Work will pay for gas. I’m still debating whether I want to buy an older Lexus LS that I will just flip when the project is over or replacing my current car with…

What would Ray Dalio say about this guy?

Luxury trucks are the best luxury vehicles. I had a ‘14 Silverado LTZ for a couple of years and I regret selling it.

Look who took his fancy pants off long enough to come back to Jalopnik for a bit.

My rationale was quite similar to your’s when my wife and I bought our Forester. I also enjoy driving a car that has little mass market status compared to a luxury brand.

Did he also attend a third tier dental school at the time?

I got into a heated debate with a Yale educated architect, because I argued that architecture that does not function first is a failure of architecture. It may be an occupiable piece of sculpture, by not architecture. He felt quite differently. I am not an architect so what the fuck do I know.

No bullshit. I had to go to D.C. for work today. I would have very likely been returning on this train if had taken the train. I chose to drive instead so I had a more flexible departure time (which was good, because I had to stay later).

Start here.

I agree with both of these takes. On one hand, it’s an SUV. On the other it’s a Lincoln and should be long, low, and wide.

I saw a couple when I was driving down to D.C. the other week. It is handsome, but the stance is off. It looks too top heavy on stock rims and rubber, much like a Honda Pilot.

Rakim or Chuck D?

Automotive passion and financial investment defy the laws of physics. Don’t bring logic into this argument.

This is a good example of why heat management is a part of suspension design. It never really sunk in until I watched this video.

I had a Ram as a long term loaner last year. The ride quality is way overhyped.

It’s a day to think about how fucked up things still are. But really, that is everyday right now.

Rusty slammington is the pinnacle of the middle ground of which you speak. Mike has continued to manage to build a vehicle that is a well thought out fuck you to automotive culture norms, but still being tasteful in it’s own way.

The more appropriate picture. Thank you.

In German prison a guy named Santa Klaus delivers his package every night. Ho ho ho motherfucker.
