“Barra seemed visibly uncomfortable after the question was asked on CNN,”

Did she? Seemed pretty straightforward and practiced of a response? Those figures she pulled out weren’t just off the top of her head.

I spent a life in the car business. Having seen and been in the middle of many disputes, I am just as skeptical of customer claims as I am of dealers trying to play innocent. But in this case, the guy got bamboozled. He didn’t understand the documents; the salesman KNEW he didn’t understand them. In fact, I would bet…

Preece was traveling sideways, pushed by another car sideways so he couldn’t help correct himself, went over a kerb that allowed more air underneath and started lifting up the side toward the direction of travel, stayed airborn in that orientation, then hit ground again sideways on it’s lower side which started…

Absolutely the wrong take-away. Nobody is suggesting the 90s wrecks that Allison, Earnhardt, and others (Ernie Irvan, for example) survived weren’t lucky breaks — that’s why the safety has become such an important aspect of the engineering of these cars AND TRACKS ... but I suspect Elizabeth knows this.

This stinks of…

Good news - the four door Mustang of your Gen X dreams is already available!

Thing looks like it was built in someone’s garage. I can’t imagine having $250,000 to spend on an expedition and deciding to wager my life on the integrity of that thing. Especially once I saw the controller.

20 hours of air for 5 people is, presumable, roughly 100 hours of air for 1 person.

I mean I know it’s just a blog but goddamn hire a copy editor already.

The off road park is that testing the vehicles capabilities that is not possible on the street. overlanding is like backpacking but you get to see more stuff. Imaging driving hundreds of miles and get to a trail and then getting to drive your stuff with you vs carrying it on your back. I do both backpacking/canoe…

it doesn’t seem impossible for a working comedian that regularly works local spots, goes on tours, and books spots on TV to afford his lifestyle.

The REAL Hot One was that spicy take by the author! (also rolling eyes at that paragraph at the speed of a Rankin-Bass character)

This is a designated off-road route with legal river crossings. Know. What. You’re. Talking. About. Before. You. Comment. 

Thanks for the last paragraph of editorializing *rolls eyes*

Reminds me of when Jalopnik reported the C8 Corvette would have 10" wheels and commenters rendered a C8 with 10" wheels. 

35" Wheels?  I think you mean tires.  Anyhow, most of these will never go off-road except for at the end of an accident!

You would hate what I did 3 weeks ago.

It was actually sold to one person that was going to “rehab” it. It didn’t take long to realize that he was full of shit and purchased it cheaply enough to go through it and scrap it himself before abandoning it to the city.

That sounds like the biggest lawsuit in history just waiting to happen. For a while though, Detroit did offer MASSIVE discounts to production companies and studios to film movies/TV shows in Detroit. Quite a few movies (ex. Transformers: Age of Extinction) were filmed there because of the “ruin porn”. The whole thing…
