Something about the shape, paint texture and lack of fine detail makes the Bus look like a bad CGI render, even though it’s real. Very weird.

Given that FCA is pretty much on its way down the toilet now, any change will probably be an improvement.

Live long and prosper!

Can’t speak for Seattle since I’ve never lived there, but I can confirm that the Leaf is probably the best car in the world for stop-and-go traffic. A so-called “fun” car is never going to be fun without a decent road to stretch its legs on.

Should be phrased differently: “Torchinsky is right. What is wrong with the world?”

The solution is easy: a full electric conversion of literally any sports car.

I see a lot of them around. I’m sure they’re fine cars, and they look good from most angles, but I always found them creepy from the front.

You know what’s worse? The 2010-2013 Mazda3 is, to me at least, worse.

I read it as “Please, stop fighting Mercedes-Benzes”, meaning Alanis doesn’t want me - or anyone - to engage in hand-to-hand (or hand-to-wheel) combat against a Benz.

Finally someone makes this joke!

Oops, wrong kind of eclipse.

Never watched PewDiePie, and never going to. Nazi jokes are not funny and have never been funny, and saying he’s not going to make them anymore in the wake of this attack is the definition of too little, too late.

Glad to see someone’s still keeping the flame alive! Classic cars are beautiful and fascinating things, and while I don’t think I’d want to own one, I love going to car shows and marveling at the glory of yesteryear. I love them all, but I always go straight for the Mustangs first if there are any (and there always…

Yeaaahhhh. As much as I wanted to like the Model 3, it’s things like this that make me realize it’s just a step in the wrong direction. Electric cars should be normal cars that happen to run on electricity, not weird spaceships that mere mortals cannot understand. The more I learn about the Model 3, the more I like…

Or the Morris Marina, or the Ford Scorpio, or any of the other backup cars. They should get Evans on the show and then drop a piano on him for Celebrity Brain Crash.

I take a certain amount of credit for helping start the Baby Driver Eurobeat meme. Granted, when I first thought of it, I didn’t think the idea was that funny and posted it in a YouTube comment instead of bothering to make the video, but someone else saw my comment and posted it. This is that version (the first one,…

I almost certainly wouldn’t buy an FCA product anyway at this point, since they’re not built very well and none of the current models appeal to me much (although the Challenger GT is kinda cool). They’re not really making any of the vehicles an automaker needs to stay afloat - no small hatchbacks, no family sedans,…

That’s basically how a diesel-electric locomotive works. Top Gear did try applying it to a car once, though...

1984-1991 Honda Civic sedan?

I think my original comment is being misunderstood by a few people. I never meant to imply that the Challenger is exclusively a white supremacist car, or that driving one makes you a terrorist. I know there are a lot of awesome people who drive them, and I always thought the late-model Challenger was one of the…
