The fact that this Alero is running is a miracle and it would be an affront to God to kill an obviously blessed and highly favored Alero. But another Craigslist junker and keep the Alero as a daily. But give it some abuse. Take it autocrossing or something an Alero shouldn’t due - but that won’t kill it immediately.

Sergio brought it upon himself. Don’t feel bad for Sergio.

Agreed. I think the current x5 is one of the more handsome vehicles in its class, specifically because the grill is restrained. The X5 immediately before it was much better looking, I will admit. Also for the aforementioned reason.

It was! The only suspension was my spine and there was no canvas roof, nor front fenders. I think that makes the experience even better. Once you get off the beaten tourist path in Burma, these are about the only way to get around.

I rode in one of these before, the back bench. I was so confused as to what it was, because I hadn’t seen that logo before. They’re used all over Burma by civilians (old ones) and the government

It’s silly looking, but I like the looks. And it’s a lovely car to drive. I rented one for a weekend in LA. Super quick and fun to toss around turns. The interior is surprisingly big and very airy. You feel like you’re driving a greenhouse. I also like the interior a lot. If I moved to a city where I had to drive, I’d…

Jalopnik just loves to shit on any company that actually has it’s shit together. The 2 series was like 3 years ago... CALM DOWN.

Also, in the photo of the woman in the corner, her arm looks like a giant dong.

Just saying.... After the accident, couldn’t they just pursue him by his license plate number? Sure the cop caught it, or the motorcyclist did.

“The BMW X1 has more in common with a Mini.”

Wow I had no idea. Thanks! I may be buying a spark then

I would be in the market for this. Moving from Chicago to LA means my car now must do commuting duty. I’d buy this for the commute (~40 total, including a gym stop) and keep my E39 M5 for a weekend toy / road trip car. In 1.5 years this would pay for itself in fuel. That doesn’ even inclue the repairs and laughably…

You’re paying for the gas and the fare(s) the driver gives up to return your shit. That’s at least $15 most the time. If people actually tipped, the drivers wouldn’t have complained to Uber to make this rule. I lost a wallet once in uber. I went to the drivers house the next day to get it and gave him $20, even though…

Good. At the very minimum, the driver looses a fare and some gas money returning your shit. Uber looses money when this happens. Everyone looses except the forgetful customer. Apparently enough people haven’t been tipping that it has become a problem that common courtesy couldn’t solve. If people just tipped the…

And they’re not that uncommon either.

Saw this being tested in Chicago.

Abbreviation for a 777-700. In the airline industry quad-7 isn’t an unsusal thing to say. Also a 738 means a 737-800 in the same light. Doesn’t make it consistent, but that’s just how it goes.

Why was the challenger so awful when the Camaro from them was excellent? And the challenger wasn’t stripped down. It had leather seats and nav. And I don’t think National orders “stripped down” Mustang GT convertible 5.0s with the premium package. If this was a “Rogue Special Edition” (the older model on sale for…

How can you live in NYC (or even the metro area) with a car and not know how to parallel park? I have friends in Chicago who drive and don’t parallel park... which is like the only way you can park in the city. It baffles me. Just take the train!

I DD a 400 hp M5 with no traction control in Chicago. With snow tires you’re fine
