No dude, it was a Challenger, not a Mustang

A car is, like any other tool, at the mercy of its operator. Mechanical failures do happen from time to time, but more often than not the car does exactly what it’s told to do. It accelerates because the driver told it to accelerate. It turns left because the driver told it to turn left. Cars are “stupid” and that’s a

Quis custodiet eos rudi, de factis amicum meum. Sorry, just had to go for the Latin on this one, smarmy points.

There. I fixed it for you.

Which is even cooler...because even if it is a kit car, it’s still something built with your own hands! Or if you’re a parent, possibly your hands and your little protoge.

Dream cars are called dream cars for a reason, they technically aren’t supposed to be easy to attain. Part of the awesome part of a dream car is the work it takes to get it.

I guarantee that Salomondrin is mad solely because DeadMauFive got one. That’s the beginning and end of his indignation, I’ll put everything on it. I hope it gets NyanCat-wrapped and goes Uber-ing throughout Canada, just to keep this clown extra salty.

oh my god fucking enough. Take it to Gawker, or reddit, or anywhere that gives a fuck about politics. This is Jalopnik.

You’re not clever, you’re not cute, you’re not poignant, you’re just another annoying mouthbreather who doesn’t actually have anything to contribute to the discussion. Nobody here gives a fuck who

Here’s why I’m not entitled, because I’m one of the poors.

That being said, I’ve owned a few 10+ year old BMW’s and have never been left stranded once. Maybe I’m lucky… but I

I usually base my reliability comparisons on an actual “big” engine: The Ford 300cid (4.9L) Inline 6.

I'm sure the vibration issue with any suspension mounted fenders, is challenging.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Knuckle Sandwich.

#COTD II: Electric Malibu!!

Recommended riding posture is to lean waaaaay back and just drive with your feet. Side benefit: you can two-fist your beers.

Finally I found someone that thinks the same way I do! My 2 cars have electronic throttle, and I hate it. While one of them is pretty “accurate”, the other one makes me go crazy. It has so much lag that I can’t make a proper downshift without having to wait for the throttle to respond to my inputs, and that could take

One common definition of “craft” is annual production of under 6 million barrels — nothing to do with number of SKUs. In fact, many craft breweries I visit likely go through more distinct brews in a year than Coors does.

According to the internet, Putin only weighs 180 lbs or so.

I completely agree.
