I have the reverse. I have the car loathed by my significant other. My wife does not trust my VW Passat(s). I had a Black 1993 Passat VR6, loved the torque, loved the sound. Loved that I could fit people in the backseat. That car stranded me three times. Once with a broken crack pipe (VR6 owners know), once with a…

Wore BK Knights for years. I just thought it was a weird thing I did. Had no idea they were cool.

Multiple In-line Chrome stick on teardrop vents.

///M badges on a non-M BMW. Bonus points if they failed to remove any of the stock badges.

I’d bite if it had sliding doors. Sliding doors = does it baby = mad yes.

A motorcycle.

Split those lanes, arrive much more quickly and much happier, radiating confidence and aplomb.

Or a self-driving car, when they come out.

So instead of insurance covering them, they’ll go to the ER, jacking up emergency transport and emergency care bills, and insurance won’t pay, but they’re probably too broke to pay, so the cost will get spread on all the medical system users who do pay.

So in the end, you pay.

I ride a motorcycle and lane split when traffic is tight. Sometimes people actively pull onto the paint in front of me to try and cut me off. I ride around them, and after I pass, I wave.

This is my revenge. Because I am happy and they are bitter.

No, this is petty and vengeful. They’re not taking your place. See how your car is in the middle of the lane? See how the motorcycle is not? The motorcycle can be where cars are not, so he’s taking a space that you cannot take, thus you and every car on the road can keep the space you’re in or moving to, and the…

So Ferrari is making a Corvette now?

Third party candidates who raise support create pressure from the main parties to adopt their positions to entice voters. So no, a 3rd party candidate won’t win a presidential election. They do help direct the course of major parties platforms and priorities.

If I gather correctly, ALL Jalopnik sub-blogs are shared to the main Jalopnik, no? Perhaps only those authored by employees or ‘Tier 1' writers, but I think it’s automatic.

We must regulate Hamilton Nolan’s writing because everything he spews is based on ‘What I’d like’ and not a product of any type of well reasoned thinking or grounded in reality.

Cut bait. Part out what’s good and find a project where you’re not literally buying all the pieces.

The Ugly:
-Celebrity Brain Crash: maybe was funny in ep. 1 and 2 to explain why they don’t do guests on the show. But to pretend to invite someone in and then be ‘shocked’ every time they ‘died’ got really old, really fast. It wasn’t funny and didn’t add anything to the show. It took away time that could have gone to…

I’m not seeing the point made anywhere that ‘A mix of human and robot cars will be disastrous’. Is that in the article? I read it twice. It does talk about the process of integration, sure, but nowhere does it say, ‘These are the reasons that humans and autonomous cars together will cause MORE problems than we have…

When ‘assume the position’ actually means a thing in regards to fixing your car, that says something. ;)

Fantastic! Welcome! I look forward to reading your articles. Even if it’s not your specialty, I’m also interested in how Russian - Turkish - Kurdish - US - Syrian -Iranian interests continue to play out in the middle east, conflicts in Africa we may be less aware of, and how how non-US NATO countries are responding.

Corrado with a tuned VR6 might be my dream car. As long as I don’t have to fix it.
