Or you know... We could just emulate the penalties for driving drunk of other countries. Make it hurt the offender on the first offense and more so on the 2nd.

It’s amazing how many DUIs you can get in the US and still get away with driving while license suspended/revoked, etc. Start putting people away for their 2nd

Out of the grays please?

I always marvel at the extent a business will go to damage their reputation. They’ve lost a customer. They’ve lost future business of the Walker’s family, neighbors and friends... And their business is all over the news for being asshats about it. This will cost them more in business even if

Tongue weight is part of your payload rating though. People tow too close to their limits and then load the family in and fill the bed.  He will be over capacity likely two ways.

Prior to my off-road trip, the engine would run warm. When I revved the motor and forced coolant through the apparently clogged radiator (I tried flushing it prior to the trip, to no avail), the temperature normally dropped into a safe range”

Can I get out of the greys please? Nothing I post is visible to anyone on Jalopnik but is on your companion sites.

Except I’m paying extra registration fees/taxes because my car is electric. Those fees are equivalent to about 20,000 miles of driving on gas if the gas car gets 35 MPG.

That kid in the front seat... The amount of confusion makes this kinda funny.

Local community gov’t including say volunteer fire departments are way more effective than Federal... The farther up the gov’t food chain you travel the more inefficient and ineffective gov’t gets. That is indeed fact.

A zero turn with a 50+ inch deck mows a lawn real fast for not much more money....

Either way, a man is dead cuz this idiot was driving while surfing the internet on his phone at night.”

Why the fuck is it relevant what he was looking at? He was using his phone - distracted driving. Period.


Chevy dealers were notoriously (and still are) horrible at servicing the Volts. Highly doubtful they’ll be any better at these.

I like what they did with the battery. I see other RV makes offering that as an option soon. I’d love to have a 20 KWh battery in ours as it would make dry camping more feasible where you need to run the AC for a bit or the microwave.

Something like an old Silverado, perhaps. The car would be something that could accomplish the things like long-distance towing”

Yes... Let’s raise the gas tax during a pandemic and recession.

You can’t tax wealth that is only on paper and constantly in flux. Bezos may have 200 billion in wealth but the vast majority of that isn’t actually realized until he makes any part of it solvent - and that is what he pays taxes on.  People advocating for a wealth tax have no idea how stupid they sound.

Maybe he moved on with life and maybe the film makers didn’t give two shits... Just as most of us don’t. It’s a fucking car story. Way to go trying to squeeze your own fucking choice narrative in there. Feel free to produce your own documentary about what an awful human being you must think he is.
