The $600 asking price opens up lots of possibilities. It’s a potential LeMons car. Maybe it could be a candidate for a crazy V-8 swap. If the repairs won’t be too expensive, it could be a fun little driver. Worst-case scenario: bargain the seller down to the car’s scrap value and break even.

This will be a 30-year-old Ford in 2024. Your math is a little off.

4x4s that were once ubiquitous and are now largely forgotten, or just plain oddball, draw me like a flame draws moths. If that Raider had a five-speed and was closer to me, I’d be all over it.

It definitely needs a transmission swap. The slushboxes in early Rangers and Bronco IIs are known to be failure-prone boat anchors. Considering that, plus the other things it needs, I’d offer the seller about half of what he’s asking.

I’m pretty sure they were offered and sold in very, very small numbers.

“Last month, we told you the story of Uzi Nissan, the small North Carolina businessman...”

Maybe the rationale behind having three side doors was new, but the idea predates the Minica Lettuce by at least some three decades:

The profile is vaguely like that of a 2CV, and the front end looks like a Prius with a glandular disorder.

Maybe this will be the catalyst that ultimately results in these fucktarded autonomous vehicles being banned. I sure as hell hope so.

A Tesla Supercharger station with a drive-in restaurant...will customers be served fried chicken with huge gaps in the breading?

Renting tools that are used infrequently is great. However, if I need a tool more than once a year, I’m probably better off buying it. More than once a year, for the same problem on the same vehicle with no real fix, I’m better off selling the vehicle.

$13,500 for a 21-year-old SAAB with a branded title...that’s Crack Pipe plus Sherm Stick!

Stef, if you didn’t write an objective review of that abomination, you at least tried. That is admirable, as I will never approach any Prius objectively. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again...they’re only good for one thing. Example below:

“Dumpy” is the right word for a car that looks like an overturned bathtub. The gold badges, terrible wheels, and Puke Pearl paint job don’t help its looks at all. I suppose it’s a Nice Price if you really, really have to have one...but since I know not one soul who would want one, Crack Pipe it is.

Can you write an article for Jalopnik without trying to cram your feminist agenda down everyone’s throat? I don’t need to, and certainly don’t want to, read that sort of propaganda. Including it in your writing makes it impossible for me to take you seriously. If you’re so compelled to push that shit, then take it…

The late Liberties (production ceased after 2012) are ugly as sin. However, if I come across a cheap 4WD early model with a manual transmission, I’d consider it. For all its faults, at least it is not a FWD or AWD pretender like the Compass and Patriot.

I bet the seller shit his pants when the “sold” announcement was made, and then laughed all the way to the bank.

Porsche badges on a Lada...that sounds like a recipe for proliferation of YouTube Russian dash-cam videos.

A standard that was written in 1974 and allows manufacturers to conduct tests themselves is in dire need of upgrading; I won’t contest that. However, I don’t really see that happening. Why? A Pew Research Center study a few years ago showed that while 88% of Americans owned a car, only 14% owned motorcycles. I’m …

Screw a parade...this is the best use for a tank. Ever.
