Maybe H-D needs to come out with a crossover.

I started riding later in life. Never had desire till a buddy put me on an old Honda 650. Took a course, passed and bought a new bike because I don’t like used stuff - but that’s me. First bike was a Sportster, cause I wanted to ride sitting up and crotch rockets had no appeal to me, but I get why they do to others.…

First thing they could do to help: Stop exclusively employing self-righteous, misogynistic, racist shitbags at their dealerships.

You’ll find that, while ostensibly a site for car enthusiasts, Jalopnik is really a site for warranty enthusiasts.

Both my uncles were multimillionaires. Both drove Buick Centuries.

My understanding is they have about 6 months left in financing with out doing something like issuing more stock. However, we don’t know all the details Musk knows.

Don’t forget the mascot for the Caliber!

Having Tom Magliozzi call me an idiot would have been the highlight of my wrenching hobby. Cheers!

And THAT is why the English car industry died!

I think we found the 12 year old... or at least someone with the mentality of one.

I like this. I want this to be a success for Buick. However I don’t see it happening. Crossovers rule the market for family cars that are not minivans. They are easier on the knees and back to enter and exit. They offer a more commanding view of the road. And they offer a bit more ground clearance. I see this as being…

I am fucking tired of everybody, upon finding out I ride, feels obliged to comment, “My buddy died riding,” or “My uncle lost his leg.”

Agreed. Makes me want to hold onto my 2001 MkIV Golf that much more. (The last version before DI.)

German engineers doing something in the most convoluted way possible? I’m shocked, SHOCKED I tell you!
