Neither. I’ve defended other vehicles as well. This site has an insane obsession with knocking certain vehicles regardless of objective performance, and people love to jump on the band wagon whether they know anything about them or not.

I’m saying you’re a troll who hasn’t been in the car they’re criticizing.

“Putting in a throaty growl and showing it carving up a mountain pass is disingenuous unless there has been a huge phase shift in their design, though.”

The new model is a huge improvement over that, too.

The one being advertised now is a new car from the ground up with a new engine, so I’m really shocked that you’ve been in dozens of them over the past 2 months.

Nah. Then you mess up the belt line.

By the time the Civic has 3 rows and 8 seats, the CR-V’s main customer base will be school districts.

Can’t wait for the 3 row, 8 seater version.

My parents’ new (well, 5 years since he moved in) neighbor tunes his two methanol fueled drag cars in his driveway/garage. My dad just goes over and drinks beer with him when he does it. The guy across the street is losing his mind over it.

My motor scooter track growing up involved a lot less work, but it was just a little 41cc Cobra. Start, cross the front yard, around the boat (until it sold), cut back to around the willow tree, down the side of the house missing all the pachysandra, straight across to the bridge, across, around the apple tree, then…

They were thinking “wow, a huge, established automaker is giving us a massive facility to give us a big head start in manufacturing? We’ll take that.”

4th Gear: Leave EV Orders Exceeding Expectations

It hurts me to say this, because this is my favorite car of all time (I was obsessed as a child), but I have to go CP, just because so much has been modded and beaten up. To bring it back to good cosmetic condition would take a lot of time and/or money, and then you still have to worry about how much aftermarket stuff…

I hope the result of the settlement was absolutely nothing.

And this.

Let’s be honest here. What you (Jalopnik) wanted was for every automaker present to announce that every new vehicle would:

Hopefully automakers will come up with a safer solution to temper the anger from their customers.

Nah. I don’t hate it. I don’t love it either, though. I know a lot of people who like it. Outside the automotive community (especially outside of the internet feces-throwing community) it’s much less polarizing.

Can you explain what makes them “dipshits?”

You could always put your hand down to your side or pocket your phone while crossing the street. I use my phone for navigation in other countries and I make a point to never look at it while crossing streets. I always either pocket it to cross or put my hand down at my side.
