I’m double vaxxed and double boosted and I have yet to get COVID. No one in my family has gotten COVID that we know of (we’re all vaxxed to the max). I haven’t worn a mask since February. I feel like Charlton Heston in Omega Man. 

I purchased a Jeep Grand Cherokee with 150k miles on it. I bought it knowing it needed some body work and CELs that often would light up at a moment’s notice. Jeep was mostly reliable but it left me stranded on 3 occasions. Sold it when the ABS computer died (a $2k replacement). I kept detailed records of every repair…

Owner should have said the A/C was “ice ice baby cold” for full nostalgia.

I had the 1985 model year of this wagon, and it rode beautifully when I got it for free in 2002. Looking out at an enormous hood and the open road, I enjoyed many long interstate trips in this car. With the seats down, it was able to haul a staggering amount of stuff.

I owned a 2001 Taurus wagon with the 24v Duretec engine and sold it in 2008 with 56k miles on it for $6,000. Never had a problem with the car and it drove great. I know the used car market is insane right now but $10k?  Sheesh!

FWIW, I work with cops and many of them are Jeep bros (complete with Punisher decals on the rear window). I guess we don’t understand.

Loved my Element, hated the pop-out windows on the suicide doors. Sitting in the backseat was positively claustrophobic.

I often show clips from The Carol Burnett Show to the Gen Z kids in my office and often they will be cracking up with laughter rather than avoiding the Creepy Old Coworker.

First, congrats on the sex, but please for the love of Christ I don’t want to hear about your blow job on a Monday morning.

I call BS on “Low congestion expected all day” for July 4. It is the end of a 3-day weekend and everyone will be on the road anytime after 12 pm. We go on a fishing trip in the mountains every July 4 weekend and I-80 is a standstill due to volume on Monday if the holiday falls on that day of the week.

I admit I am always a little terrified when driving behind car carriers.

Ted Cruz talking about video games...

Y’know there are elections every year in the US, often for offices like state legislature and municipal council. The GOP learned long ago the importance of controlling state and local government, while too many Democrats believe that the only election that matters is the one for President every 4 years.

$100k is lower middle class in the northeast, especially with housing prices increasing by double digits every year while my salary gets a 1-2% annual bump. I guess I can afford a Bolt if I finance it for 5+ yrs, but that looks like the only EV that’s in my budget.

Jezebel needs to pay a writer to go on a date with Mr. Spencer and report back.

IIRC, my friend owned a 2007 Subaru Legacy and the infotainment system and climate control system were one singular piece of the dash. The Subaru didn’t have an AUX input and replacing the stereo with an aftermarket model was impossible so he bought a kit where he had to split the CD line-in into 2 sources to listen…

Yet Americans will still feel a need to purchase an F-250 for those trips to Costco.

A local business owner loves his Bolt so much, his dad purchased one too. They charge it at a standard 110 volt outlet at home and at work. Gets them to and from the office every day without any drama.

Sounds similar to what Jalopnik reported on Honda recently?

Bus seating is marginally more comfortable than flying economy class and buses smell much worse than most planes. If you have lots of time to spare, Amtrak coach seats are incredibly comfy for us passengers taller than 6'.
